Office of Steam Forum for Model & Toy Steam Gas & Hot Air Engines

The Show had his first day behind it.
Yesterday I already met up with Charlie and it was a real pleasure to meet him.

I didn't got much time today to film a lot, because as an exhibition representative, I had to keep an overview what happened at my table.
As last year my stand is next to Rupert, also member here on this forum.
We shared the same table together with a 3th steam collector and together we sat up an awesome 6m of all sorts of goodies.
My red line in my part of the exhibition was metal construction kits and steam engines, with the rare "Structator" kits form Bing.
These where only produced from 1912 until 1914.
Reason for this short life was a the bad metal alloy the used for the connection pieces.
Of all 4 kits I bought  95% of the connection pieces where broken.
The big Farris wheel you see in the sort video of the complete table belongs to the Bing museum.
The connections use there are of a 10x better and made of brass, we assume that this kit was for shop display or as a prototype.
Anyway enjoy the video, Charlie filmed much more stuff and I think he's going to show some footage soon.

Cheers,
Danny
