Matt Chivers

Greetings, My name is Matt and I am a home machinist and steam locomotive enthusiast. I have always been fascinated by the inner workings of machines and the process of building something from scratch. That's why I decided to embark on a journey to build my very own 7.25" gauge Tinkerbell class steam locomotive. ​ On my YouTube channel, I share my progress by documenting the entire process of building a steam locomotive from start to finish. I also share tips and tricks I've have learned along the way, as well as answering any questions you may have about home machining and steam locomotive building. ​ Whether you are a seasoned machinist, just starting out or just interested in my steam and heritage journeys, I hope you will join me on this exciting adventure. Thank you for your support!
