I had been renailing my decking back down for about 3 hours when I decided I needed a break.
I decided to run both my Scorpions at the same time.
I've got two things to say before you watch the vid.

Firstly no comments on the burner in the engine on the left.
Secondly take note of the high tech solution I used on the loose whistle lever.

Enjoy

Really enjoyed that Tony.

Great to see something really different.

Yes, I loved the accent as well. (Could almost taste the Vegemite)
