Yesterday I already met up with Charlie and it was a real pleasure to meet him.
I didn't got much time today to film a lot, because as an exhibition representative, I had to keep an overview what happened at my table.
As last year my stand is next to Rupert, also member here on this forum.
We shared the same table together with a 3th steam collector and together we sat up an awesome 6m of all sorts of goodies.
My red line in my part of the exhibition was metal construction kits and steam engines, with the rare "Structator" kits form Bing.
These where only produced from 1912 until 1914.
Reason for this short life was a the bad metal alloy the used for the connection pieces.
Of all 4 kits I bought 95% of the connection pieces where broken.
The big Farris wheel you see in the sort video of the complete table belongs to the Bing museum.
The connections use there are of a 10x better and made of brass, we assume that this kit was for shop display or as a prototype.
Anyway enjoy the video, Charlie filmed much more stuff and I think he's going to show some footage soon.

But we are there for moral support

But for those who will come now or in the future, let me know you’re coming.
It’s always nice to meet other forum members.

The 2019 Bing meeting in Freinsheim (Germany) is coming up soon.
The Event will go through as every year in the local town hall "Von Bush-Hof", from 2 until 3 / 11
This year the event has grown so big that the maximum of exposition space is fully used.
So If you've got the spear time and you want to have a super time off come and visit…
The event is a super opportunity to see rare items, that seldom are seen, from steam engines, trains, magic lanterns , cars to dolls, beers and doll houses.
Also during the event the Bing museum itself will be opened and can be visited with the same entrance card.
And if you visit don't forget to say hallo to our forum members who expose there, Rupert (ccmagnus) and me (Danny, nuvolari)
Of corse for those who aren't able to come, I'll do my best to make a few videos of the event as every year.
Cheers,
Danny
