Nice piece.... Congrats, Nick...!!!


If I am not mistaken I believe that it is the result of Doug Pusser (MiniSteam), on a trip to Germany, introducing Wilesco mamagement to Karsten to get this into production.

I have to blame Bill (Airspyder) for this purchase after seeing his video below back in February... I never had any interest in the newer Wilesco engines, but being I have all of Karsten’s Tornado accessories, I thought it would be nice to have a larger boilered engine to display his pieces with at shows. I went on a few websites and seen it was sold out and just assumed they would no longer be available being I had heard Karsten was no longer going to be selling anything... Happened to be on Ministeam’s site and seen they were still available and on sale, so figured I better not hesitate  ;D

I did not know he was involved with this, glad he still had some in stock... I think he’s the only one with any left.
