Wow, what an absolutely fantastic collection! Your presentation is wonderful!

I am really interested in the Wilesco fire engine. Do you ever fire it? if so, would it be possible to see a video?


Thank you so much for sharing today (as always)!

Cheers


Yes, i ran her already several times and the engine is great!
Runs at a nice speed and you can adjust a nice big circle it can run.
Also the waterpump works great on livesteam.

And yes i do have a video, but not uploaded yet...
Stay tuned, will post it before STWWW ends

Wow, those are some impressive machines.

Those EKT tools have to be the finest "toy" workshop tools made this century.  I'd never seen a drill press before.

Your meccanno craft is also wunderbar

THIS Century?  I have a hard time realizing how quickly time flies too.
