Very interesting displays...
Well done, and thanks for sharing Nick :)

Thanks Jan, I tried to bring stuff that would keep the attention of the kids, both young and old  :D

Crazydoug’s “Slinky Tester” was probably the crowd favorite

Nick,

I really enjoyed your setups and "helping" you on Friday.  I also enjoyed setting up my meager display next to you on Saturday.

For info, Nick set up 3 totally different displays on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and did a masterful job of keeping everything running.

His setups on Saturday and Sunday were the hit of the Miniature Land Building. 

I will be putting up My YouTube video of the LeSueur Pioneer Power Show soon.

I would not recommend doing this, but it sure was a great time playing with so many toys that have sat for too long!  :D 

Looking forward to your video Jim

I was too busy playing to get around for more videos, but got a short of Jim’s Buckman inspired Doorknob Engine

Had a great weekend putting on my first real display of steam toys. Jim (QuickJ) helped me run some on Friday and brought a few of his engines on Saturday. We had 6 going on steam for quite awhile, no running on air here!  :D  Went through 9 gallons of water, 7 cans of butane and over a dozen boxes of Esbit… thought I had an endless supply of Esbit, but I burned through the majority of it in one weekend! 😂
