Jin is doing a great job with this engine.

You can see how well he shrunk it by comparing to my Baker Monitor scale model that is considerably larger.

Well now Gil, did you provide any technical assistance to Jin in his design and construction of this model? Give him the idea to make it perhaps?

Certainly, it is an interesting and fine-looking engine.

Wish I could afford one too!

Bonjour,

A picture is always interesting, I hope above all that the one I preordered will run correctly out of the box  ;)

This one looks very good.

With a 125% tariff, it will be quite expensive!

Tariffs could be a serious problem.

Could he possibly ship to a forwarder in a non tariff country for further distribution?

Here is a brand new video showing Jin's progress.

He asked me to upload it to YouTube for him.

Enjoy,

Gil

Very nice but I think the impending tariffs may be a deal breaker on this.

Bonjour,

Not in Europe, but I think that we are a little market for Jin unfortunately for him.

That said, rules have already changed and would do it again...
