They make a great sound.
If I had the storage space... And the money... I'd have a few more engines.

They make a great sound.

I cut some small adhesive backed pads and stuck them on to the hammers so they wouldn't damage the buttons, I think that it has more of a drumming sound because of it.

Yes, mine came a day or two after yours, but I've been busy on my grandma's farm every day, so no chance to play yet...

Great movie Bill, they certainly do beat the living daylights out of that virus  :)


Love that D15 as well, a rarely seen model, and even more so in your early version there.
Cheers

I ordered one too from him.

I just couldn't resist.

Not in a hurry; so, we will see what happens.

Mine finally arrived last week.

It's quite well made.

I have it sitting on my desk.

What does "Vironator" mean?

I would suggest vironator is a virus thumping machine  :o ::)

There is a virus software program with that name also a hand sanitiser

May be so. A dictionary said "-ator" means thing that performs the function of the verb.
