I've mounted the Saito T3DR as well, Here are a couple of pictures.
It still needs some pollishing and I've left off the exhaust tubing for now.

A beautiful plinth.

Fantastic Work Bill.

A family portrait would be great.

Thanks Charlie
It might be a while before I can get the family together for a photo, but I'll see what I can do. :)

Here's one that I don't have to mount, unless it's in a boat. ;)

I think there should be a worldwide ban on posting pictures of Saito plants.
Not helping the fight against poverty showing such things! :D

They both look amazing, well done Bill!!!
Cheers

Bonjour,
Beautiful plants indeed but to my opinion, they would be better in a hull  ;)
The T3DR is a very good machine able to operate gently at 20 PSI :

Thank you Jan,
I agree, often times when someone posts a picture of thier collection it will test my personal fight against poverty. :)
But I justify it by telling myself that maybe I have helped the economy a little with my steam related purchases over the years?

Cheers

Thank you Raphael,
I love to build boats and agree that they look best in a hull, chugging across a pond, but I have found that they take up even more space to display and store than a simple plinth.
And I have definatly run out of storage/display space. :)
