Great stuff Mike!

Thanks for posting the pictures.

That big Carette Vertical is very special.

Wow

That engine is not a toy and the accessories are outstanding

Both engines on the same page from the Carette 1911 Catalog!

Have things settled down for you in Philly Mike?

Hopefully, you will find some time to get the new Carette 690/? running?

Have you figured out which version of the 690 you have?

Hi Charlie, I just saw your post. Still working on the cleanup, things are better in Philly now. Thanks for asking. Unfortunately, this is not a Carette model 690. I have the smallest & largest sizes Carette 690 and the large one is 1/3 the size of this beast. I am sure Brent can chime in but he likes to keep his pre-1900 catalogs confidential :)
At least, I put the engine part back together for now.
