That is amazing, wow

1220 hours of work on that, it sure did pay off.

Absolutely fantastic! Love it, and major kudos to the man who put it all together.

Now, how can we get it into one of Jims die-cast models?

Now thats impressive to see that little engine wind up. I wonder what kind of torque it can produce if it would be sufficient to move a scale vehicle up a hill or thru water
