Hi from Western Norway

[Rimrock]

Hi, my name is Oyvind,born 1972, out of Western Norway. I am working as an design engineer in the field of offshore steel structures, for a drilling rig operator.

In my spare time I like to spend time in my basement hobby room, where I got a couple of lathes and cnc mill. At the moment I am mostly into construction machinery and trucks in 1:14. My father has been operating a smaller 'backhoe establishment' for many years, and thats mainly how I got my interest in construction machinery.
I also have an interest into scale steam engines, but that's on a hold for now I am self-thought on the tool machines, don't have any special training or work experience in that field, but always been fascinated.


It's great to see what others are fiddling around with concerning the hobby world wide, and to exchange some ideas)

best regards
Oyvind
