• Two new engines arrived an hour ago - one superb English Bassett Lowke Steam Plant
  and one giant Swiss made Steam Engine weighing approx. 100 lbs. Flywheel dia. 13"
  Have some pictures and will make more next days (after cleaning and service). The first overview
  is very good - nothing wrong or missing. The Bassett Lowke is probably 100 years
  old and in a all original Status. No new paint and blued steel ground on the wood base.
  The 3 Mushroom Burner looks great too. The price was in 1920 four pounds sterling
  and 10 shillings - today the multiplier probably is times 100?! 
  
  Happy Sunday, Arnold

• Two well preserved machines.
  
  I like them both!
  
  Were these acquired in a private sale, auction or eBay?
  
  Do you know any history on the large Swiss engine?
  
  Looking forward to seeing the videos.
