England Model Engineering Society—This is a group of over 150
members with a common interest in mechanical things and machining. They
meet monthly on the first Thursday of each month at the Charles River
Museum of Industry in Waltham MA. The meetings include a featured speaker
and a time for members to "show and tell" about their work. They
publish a monthly newsletter and hold an annual show for the public on the
third Saturday in February. They also organize charter bus trips to model
shows and often have field trips to a member's shop or other place of
interest. There are organized Saturday seminars and arranged group
purchases of material to save money. Anyone with an interest in the
