Looks like it was extracted from the trunk of a car that had been through the crusher at a junk yard. 🤠

Inflicted by a partner who wasn’t getting enough attention because of steam toy addiction by the other party.

  Of course the burner isn't missing.
Cheers Bob, I collect mostly German steam stationary engines.

Haha, that was my guess too  :D  Been told many times when I leave engines on top of the freezer that she’s going to lift the lid and let them all fall behind. I just remind her that they’re her inheritance 😂

Someone forgot to tell the driver the alcohol goes in the burner, not his mouth.

Now that's funny.  Since I use Grain Alcohol for my burner fuel, the driver would have gotten a heckuva jolt.
