Hi, everyone,

back from vacation and from a trip to Austria. Last weekend I was also an exhibitor at a model building exhibition. It was nice to be among like-minded people again after a long time. It was a nice meeting.

Hi Michael, thanks for the video, there are many very nice engines there, a testament to the quality of work of the exhibitors.  And your video has been very nicely edited too.

Some nice models there. Looks like the Austrians like to have their engines generating which you also see a lot from the German Modellers

That line shaft driven machine shop diorama is both breathtaking and fascinating.

My gosh! When I realized that's not simulated swarf on "floor", but those tools are actually cutting metal, my jaw just about fell off my face. Is that the work of a single individual?

This is the work of one person. Franz is over 80 years old and still has power and is looking for more machine tools to build. I have a catalog of machine tools that I showed him and he immediately snapped photos. Most machines are only created after photos. Unbelievable!
