YouTube PREMIERE : Tuesday Tech Talk: Model Engineering, with Todd Cahill

  • Charles River Museum of Industry and Innovation 154 Moody St Waltham, MA, 02453 United States (map)

This Tuesday Tech Talk Video will Premiere on the Museum’s YouTube Channel at 12 Noon on July 19th.

Our longtime friend and artist/machinist Todd Cahill (steamachinesculpture.com) speaks to us about model engineering.

This Tuesday Tech Talk opens with a look at the Museum’s collection of model steam engines on display, followed by a visit to Todd’s studio for a look and a demonstration of some of his own models, and as a special treat: Todd performs a live steam test on a Waltham-built steam engine from our collection.

Todd shares his experience and insight on becoming a successful model engineer; from the tools of his trade, to getting involved with the New England Model Engineering Society-- a group of enthusiasts and engineers who meet monthly in Waltham and whose annual Model Engine Show is one of the highlights of our calendar.
