DIXIE
« on: March 09, 2019, 07:32:35 am »
Hi,

Well here we go my first effort at OofSFforM&TSG&HAE.  As I had a bit of a surgical party last Monday SWMBO has hidden the key to the shed and I am reduced to playing at editing videos.  Hopefully for everyone's state of mind it won't be the case for too long.  Sleep is usually induced after the third minute of play



Regards Tony.

Tony fantastic video diary of your Dixie restoration. I like the sound she makes while building up steam and the engine irons look the part. Thanks for sharing Tony.
Keep on steaming

Hi Tony, warm greetings & welcome aboard, this was the "perfect" video for an early "just out of bed" casual viewing, stellar work my friend & thank you for sharing your craftsmanship with us.
