... I'm torn between Wilson and Wormar. But they're all wonderful engines! 
I give my vote to ...

Since there's no Jensens, I'll have to think about it before voting.
I really like the workshop setup, so I'm leaning towards that one.  |

Good idea, is that possible?
Some months the voting and interest seems to peter out as the winner is clear from the earliest voting.
Mind James trys his hardest by only allowing half a month to vote in  |

That simple and elegant Wilson is a show stopper for me!! I love understatement- which makes no sense since I am kinda' wordy!!
