Carette ? Is this model known ?
« on: November 10, 2022, 03:46:16 pm »
I had the chance to bid on a Swiss platform from 1 Euro.
I placed a bid of 550 Euros - the problem was that the seller
accepted only pickup at his place. I would had to drive for 7 hours
on a very busy road....This was the end of my bidding - get over it

I think you should consider yourself lucky that you missed it! It's a real hybrid of mismatched components.

I kindly disagree Brent. below is a picture of mine. A very high quality machine with many features similar to my hot air engine design; probably same production era.

You may be right, but certainly a very bizarre construction by Carette.

And the yellow paint on the chimney looks odd?
