Welcome to the Forums Chris, great to see you here.
Fair dinkum, you other blokes here are a crack up. More noise here than the dunny door banging in the wind.
Well I'm off like a brides nightie. Some chat here makes me feel like I have a few roos loose in the back paddock

Thanks for your welcome everyone. Geez I thought my Aussie venacular was bad but Wallace really takes the cake. Thought it was dying out in the ankle biter generation but I'm obviuosly not on my Pat Malone.
Will post images of my collection on the collections site when I have time. For tmuir, don't have any Aussie steam engines yet, far & few between, think I've only seen one on ebain three years, it was similar to your vertical (maybe it's the one you bought). Your PM isn't available, if you want to converse about Native Orchids please PM me direct to save boring everyone else.
Cheers

My PM should be available my private email address is hidden but you should be able to PM me odd. 
I've also only seen one Scorpion engine on ebay, it was similar but not exactly same as my Scorpion, it was also missing chimney and cylinder. Got mine from a person that lives inland from Perth, chance stop at an antique shop, it wasn't in the shop but the guy helping there told me he had an old steam engine in his shed.
Rang me up a few weeks later said he was coming to Perth and brought it up with him for me to see. He delivered it to my door and I snapped it up for $150.
Powerhouse museum has a boxed one in their vaults got them to send me pictures.
Here is the link to the post with pictures of my engine and then a couple of pages in the pictures of Powerhouse Museums one.
