A small CaretteThis small Carette arrived from UK. Some paint loss on the base, but otherwise in lovely condition. Model is 696/11P from 1911. Size is 23x19cm. I only tested it on air yet, waiting for a rainy day to run it on steam

That would make an interesting story. Carving it up on the back roads of Sweden on a steam trike . I can see a book and a mini series.
That actor from a over that way 'Mads Mikkelsen' playing Bugsys.
Sorry stealing the thread again

Wasn't there a movie with a guy riding a lawn mower across the US?

Yes, there was. It was about a man named Alvin Straight. He was in his 70's and rode his lawn mower from Iowa
to Wisconsin to see his sick brother.
There is a book about it, as well as a movie. "The Straight Story".
