Hi Alan,  First.... Welcome aboard..!!! from Connecticut, USA.

Have you ordered or receiced the Debolt Star? It is an excellent model engine.
I have one myself and it is one of my best runners.

Below is a video for your enjoyment.

Hi Gil
Hi Hero
Il have a suscription at the Youtube channel from Gil.
Very nice Star Engine
Also interesting videos about the different shows.
Difficult to have clear answers  when the Star Engine is finished.
I have contacts since 18 months with P. Debolt and no answer to my last mail ...

Hi Alan, I understand having contacts. Have you sent Paul the payment or a deposit for your engine?

Hi Gil
I have asked Paul for a deposit.
He answered me that he wish no money for the moment.
Difficult for me to understand American accent on phone.

Just receive a mail from P. Debolt.
