Great selection of models I have really enjoyed looking at them, several of which I have built myself during my Meccano career, nice to see them all working.

newspaniard commented: 6.13 is a Linen Winder which I didn't understand; 6:26 is a Meccano High-Power Electric Loco Chassis for which I didn't have the part 149 (Collecting Shoe) nor, come to that, a 3 rail electric train set :0). The final model in the set is No.47 which is just a tad more complicated than the Roller Skate Ho Hum. Did you notice that following your comments regarding the Equatorial Mounting, I filmed it again?

Hope you can make those two models. I did see the modified equatorial mount and it was a lot clearer. Just in case you're wondering what a collecting shoe looks like, go to

Two questions:
What happened to models 13 and 26? How many more are there?

A great site, and it makes me a bit jealous of Spanish weather. Hope you get a lot more hits in the months to come.
