Bonjour Gil,
Many thanks for these videos, already watched ;)
And you didn't answer to my question as I have see Microcosm Hit & Miss engines on a table, is there yet a US Hit & Miss model maker / manufacturer in activity ?
Perhaps you should ask Jin to come in your country ;D
We will likely not see these small scale models made here in the states.
The economics work when done in Asia.

Very nice tour you have provided us here Gil!
I must say that I heard almost not a single word from you in the early going of Part 3 when you were working your way through all the really big (loud) engines running.
One thing I seemed to be extra focused on this time was all the incredible variations of fly-ball and throw-out governors in use. Essentially no two were really quite alike with many being very different indeed!!!

I'm not sure why but the 1st 2 links won't open for me only the 3rd link open to YouTube
I am also not sure why. I know they are all good embeds.
Since you had an issue in another thread you likely need to check your settings and find out what is stopping you from viewing. I know you call them links but they should show as full sized pictures click on.
Best of luck.
