See how she got it wrong
She read it as hover not Hoover

It is fully working PingSpike ! I have three Stuart marine engines, this V-Twin is destined to go into a model RC boat which I am currently planning on paper. I’m a retired boat-builder with a passion for all things steam. What a leap in technology these items on the table represent eh?

Stuff like that has always fascinated me.

I’ve got Trencherfield Mill literally on my doorstep, the engine still runs to this day :bowing_man:

Well, it did until about six weeks ago, budget cuts :roll_eyes: - I think they’re looking to offload it to the community to work on as volunteers, I’m seriously tempted to put my name down :grimacing:

Such beautiful engineering, hope the mill keeps going. That is an incredible plant. I would be in like Flynn if local to me!
