New on my shelf - Bing 130/333
« on: February 02, 2022, 11:02:11 am »
Got this nice Bing Vertical 130/333 today. It is quit a simple engine
and has not a lot of features. But it is a good and strong runner.
I only had to replace the sight glass - the old one had a hairline crack.
The fixed cylinder works only in one direction. This is the second biggest
of this series and the original price was 22 Reichsmark. I could easily
polish all the brass parts and boiler but I go with the patina.
Enjoy, Arnold ;D

It is quite attractive as it is. Nice sounding engine when running.

A really solid example Arnold, you have a great eye for quality machines & this one runs very well.
