Yup.......
I knew it.......
Your HooKed........
Just wanted to tell ya I saved your MM Kinex Mobile video.....
Still very cool.....I like how you did the whole setup...I want to find another MM1 or MM2 and make a Traction engine with the boiler ....Just take it off the firebox/plate....Leave the chimney engine ect in place and make a scuttle and front and rear axle mounts .....gear it down and Presto a Mini TE....
I think i could use big Flywheels for the wheels in back ,,,,and small ones up front.....
