• Great job Stuart!
  
  Good luck with the hunting.
  
  Have you made a go at making the replacement Governor yet?
  
  Did you have to do any work on the motor or contacts?

  Can you share information on paint matching for Empire engines? I'm repainting an early B-30. Thanks.

• I'd dearly like to put some new blades on mine. This is how it came from the US. Rog helped me out with the pattern for the back wind vane.

• Aermotor windmills to the rescue.  Kits are found on EBAY.
  
  I've added some pix and a you tube link.  An explanation on
  how to put the fan blade on the windmill is there.  I apologize
  for the lighting - missed the fan blade.  This mod is a 'no brainer'.
