Loved the video, Jim! Very long and detailed, and relaxing to watch. A most impressive engine, for certain.

I noticed the valve handles are not the usual red (plastic?) ones I've seen on other 16051's. Did you make these? They look much nicer!

G'day Paula, they are a nice looking engine and a pleasure to take down off the shelf and steam up.
Yes, I turned the handles from some hardwood I have the plastic red ones safely stored away but wasn't a big fan of them.
