It's good to see you here again! I really like that engine. It's not of the type we usually see here. The base is beautiful!! It looks like you are getting close to finish and paint... :cartwheel:

With your workmanship, Pavel, it was always going to work.  Do we get to see the video?  But always great to see that final part in place so we can see it run.  Congratulations on another great model, and thank you for showing it.

I particularly like all the detail you put in with all the accessories, those models you have on display are fabulous.  I have worked all my life in chemical plants with machines and piping, and you have it just right.  I would love more detail on how you get all that pipe work bent just right.  Especially the tight radius bends.
