Classic Steam Engineering Forum looking for a home?

Post by Bob Cleek » Sat Jun 01, 2013 10:37 pm

I see where the Classic Steam Engine Engineering forum is on its last legs, as a forum at least. The fellow who runs it apparently is throwing in the towel. There's a lot of interesting information there. He says he'll try to archive it somewhere. Maybe this forum might spare a bit of bandwidth to archive their stuff and pick up their members? What do I know. I just hate to think this stuff might be lost in cyberspace.

It is tricky to host a 2nd forum within the same database, easy to mess things right up if you don't know what you are doing, and believe me, I have no idea!
I've got the vehicle, just need the boat.
