Definitely looks like a home build, but nicely done. Bet it was fun to spot an engine at the store, even if it didn’t come home with you.

Couldn't believe my eyes Nick they had this one, another little definitely homemade one and a rough but complete Wilesco D455 (the all brass one)

This engine I saw in an 'antique' store yesterday for $100 (I didn't buy it).

Does it look like an apprentice type engine?
