Am quite stoked, as well as a bit saddened by the initial reason for this opportunity.
I was fortunate enough that Andrew upon my inquiry, decided to let Geoff´s old testbed 20 go.
It arrived here today, accompanied by the wellknown OzsteamDemon Jackshaft/Transmission, a "demonized" gauge-whistle-outlet-manifold, and a neat little DEMON tag on top that Andrew got made for the engine.

Besides being desirable for its history, the engine should fit right in here, as i already have Geoff´s Jensen 95 testbed turbine, which i purchased shortly before his much too early departure.
Furthermore the engine also ads another Jensen 20 valvegland version here, having solely screws and no rivets to plug the steamchest.
Andrew, thanks for giving me the chance to be the proud custodian of these items, much appreciated my friend!
