Hello to Dick and all members .

I am a bit of an Engineering info geek i suppose as only no-fiction books can be found on my book shelves , mostly Electro Mechanical Engineering , History and Art ,

However the likes of Wheatstone , Faraday etc i have known of from an early age of 10/11 when i was building valve radios in the mid 50s .
Since i had to retire early at 49 due to a dicky ticker i have been into building kit cars for therapy , i got into Tina's via a friend some 9 years ago now, and the mere mention of a Wheatstone Concertina gained my attention so research into his history and other Tina makers began. i now repair my own tinas as necessary and lastly the most difficult part for me is getting to grips with playing EC & Anglo no mean task for someone used to listening to and sending morse code -.- -.

Tina stock so far 1, 1851 EC Wheatstone , 1, EC Lachenal 1918 , 1, Jack EC , 1, Rochelle A , 1, Stagi A
1, miniature EC arriving any day now i hope.
