The great Jim Gamble, world class authoity on Meccano and the products of Hornby's famous BInns Road factory in Liverpool. I have the pleasure of serving with Jim as a trustee of the Maghull, Merseyside based Frank Hornby Trust which runs the Frank Hornby Heritage Experience exhibition within the Town's Meadows Leisure Centre. Hornby lived in Maghull at two houses for most of his adult life.

I never knew that the name 'Meccano' was a derivation of 'Make And Know.' It was originally 'Mechanics Made Easy' in 1901 and until quite recently it seemed that no one was sure how the final name came about.

Thanks for a great video. Can't you make it fit with recent data format? Right now on my computer it is squeezed sideways.

2:17 I just couldn't help thinking of Richard Dawkins when I heard that. It requires serious intelligence to construct complicated machines like that.
