I think it will polish up quite nice 😉

Will probably run it for the global power up as is and have some fun with it first 😀

Day 51: Böhm Windmill, arrived today. Saved this one in my eBay watchlist a couple weeks ago hoping to get an offer from the seller but that never happened. He also had messages turned off so couldn’t make an offer… after looking at it too many times and wanting one for too long my eBay finger got the best of me 😂

I have always been a fan of Böhm, same as Karsten Gintschel.
