Great video Jim ... and I do love your little hot handle tool, you should have used it on the whistle a time or three as well.

In general I have a great affection (or is that affliction) for stationary twins, and I truly do love my SE3s. I do also like the Wilesco D22, but prefer by far my Jensen 55s that are truly wonderful twins with the stead reliable smooth power distribution of a real machine!

Thanks Daniel, that's a handy little tool to stop burnt fingers. There is something really nice about twin stationaries isn't there.

Those long handles make it easier to fine tune the regulators too

Definitely my favourite Mamod the SE3, lovely engines  :)

Made my "No-Burnz" handle straight after my first experience with a heated Mamod...
Completely indispensable IMHO, and should have been an obvious part of the original accessories from the factory.
