Hi All
Here is a video of my Denny hot air engine that I have just finished working on, and described yesterday in the finished project section.

I don't see a video, but would really like to.

Hi
I don't seem to have much luck posting videos but will try again and hope this will work out ok.

That is a smooth running engine. Very finely crafted and finished. I think I would like to make one of those someday, time permitting. Thanks for sharing Modelman!
