Hi Rog, me too! I first spotted one of these at Cabin Fever and at the Names show 20 years ago and became quite smitten with the design. It would not be until 2011 that one became available. Patience prevails.

A beautiful engine & very nice runner Gil.
Thanks, Bruce! It always ran and it seems to get better the more I run it.

Bonjour Gil,
Absolutely beautiful engine, lucky man  :D
Merci beaucoup, Raphael!

I was fortunate to get an opportunity to bring this home from an auction in Michigan in 2011.
Even better, the builder, Lee Degood and I have become good friends in the years since then.

Joyeux Noel!
