nice 35's you have Charlie. Jensen #35's are generally unappreciated like I think they should be.

This makes me almost want to collect Jenson now LOL!  Though I have had a hard enough time getting the Empires that I have, I don't think my OCD could take on the Jenson line ;-)

We’ll have to ask Jan what his engine has since that has a decal…
Just to add to the confusion...it has a slotted pin Nick.

I would assume that your slightly younger un-slotted crankpin, is a result of running out of finished crankpins.
Especially since it seem rather long, compared to the one un-slotted pin i have here in my collection.
If he had a larger batch due for delivery, i can easily imagine that Jensen either decided to dig into a box holding semi-manufactured but fully usable parts, or swiftly made the pins needed, without spending time on the last machining operation, 


Cheers

Thanks Jim, Gil, Nick and Mike.

I will need to find an appropriate cord for the cordless one (Transitional?)

I really enjoyed the back and forth between Nick and Mike.

Thanks for the pictures of your 35 Nick.

13 J35s Mike.  Well done!

I had one other one which had converted to a gas burner which I traded or gave away.
