Jim, thank you for the kind human interest story.

Thank you kindly for the reply.

Great story and interesting info on your research. Have you managed to get it steaming ?

[Grateful Ted]

Thanks for this, very interesting story.
Can the name meant to be read looking inside when the burner is out?
That was my first thought as to why it seems to be stamped backwards when looking at the bottom?
These little engines are meant to be run. Any plans to run it?
Thanks again.

I am planning to run the engine, thanks for the encouragement to run it.
