Little Brother and Little (littler) Little Brother
« on: March 27, 2019, 05:33:04 pm »
Here is my Little Brother built by who knows? 

and....

A few years back I was fortunate to acquire a smaller

Little Brother.... a free lance build scaled down from the regular sized model by George Britnell.

I call it the Little Little Brother!

Enjoy,

Gil

Dandy little engine, Gil. I'll bet it runs as good as it looks.

Very nice ... but it must have been a little hectic getting started.

The Little Brother engine appears to be the one that Jin is currently offering, or a fairly close copy anyway.

Hi all,
 Gil nice. Have you ever seen one of Herb's little brothers' uprights?

Len, I might have seen one and not known what it was called. I am not familiar with a Little Brother upright.

Hi,
 Do like the pairing you posted here in this thread. I will look to get a pic to post. Imagine the one with  brass fly wheels you repainted, but smaller.
