Love the sound these Maiwald flamelickers make and reminds me of the twin cylinder one i used to own.

I see yours has the cooling tank on the cylinder end Jim.

Your nose is before your eyes, so trust it first!

I still have one of his twin cylinder flamelickers, but my favorite of his engines in my collection is a pendulum hot air engine that hangs on our kitchen wall.
Nice engine jim.
