the next photo I need to take (when it finally arrives) would be my D2 against the D32

you could almost play a game: where's the steam engine on the steam engine?

Davey, I thought I had one of each Wilesco stationary.
But I don't have a D2, never heard of that one.
What does it look like?

Think most Wilesco collectors is waiting for the D2, know for sure i am

It just looks so sweet, and hopefully it will be a better overall experience than most have had with their D3

Unfortunately they keep pushing that date

Cheers

Two very nice engines

The difference in size between these two is a lot bigger than I thought.

An excellent comparison. I'm growing rather fond of the Wilesco stationary engines I now have seven. A D3, a D5, two D6's, two D16's and finally a D20.
