the event i went to today was brill, i set up my new trailer display and i was that bust with people coming over to watch me steam up i had a job to get away from my trailer, so all the video is done from a distance but it's not that bad.

the table of steam was a great hit and i managed to point a few people in the direction of our wonderful forum.

anyway here is my display

I would sleep so much better at night if I knew there was a leg propping up the rear of that trailer, do not want someone leaning on the rear and it tipping up.
I am so jealous, such a fine display and what looks like a great way to spend a Saturday.

John, you can sleep easy as there is one but it's not visable in the photo, below is the photo of the other side

Whew, I had visions of a Markie all crushed  and shattered, I should have known ( in fact I did know ) that you were smarter than that. So relieved here,
