That looks like a horizontal steam powered egg beater that makes perfect meringue every time.

You need to show something really big tomorrow for the Bonus Day this year.

At the request of Charlie @txlabman I have found one of my biggest engines for this years “bonus day” February 29th, Day 60! I hope you are not disappointed ;)

The Peake engines are really special.

How about a family portrait of all of your Peake engines?

Steamco, the only collection that I have complete (I think anyway), and yes, they are very stout and willing runners! Sad that they are no longer in production or readily available.

Yes, the only one done in white that I've ever seen. They were usually done in either dark blue or burgundy.
