:eek::D Very nice!

Having the two master rods positioned side by side could have been for ease of maintenance. Maybe. Glad the reference was of interest and/or use to your research. Derek

Shinpachi, I am always impressed with your skills in CGI, 3d rendering but perhaps even more so by your dedication to correct detail. Salute! I know just a little more than the basic difference between a radial and an inline powerplant but looking at your efforts here, it has tweaked my...

Thanks, I've just started to scan books into the MyLibrary app. There are some book series where I have just one or three and hoping this will give me a portable resource when I'm book hunting away from home. Before when I'd bought duplicates, my friends or family have benefited. I wish I had...
