I acquired this beauty from a private collector in May, 2018.

This is a rare Carette Hot Air Engine in excellent condition for its age. The seller had it in a glass display case for the last 20 years.

The video was filmed with my DJI Osmo Pocket.

This is the first video utilizing my Neewer 2 x160 LED Dimmable Ultra High Power Panel Lighting Kit with Stands. I am very pleased with these lights. A great value for under $100 from Amazon. You can see my updated video studio in the video. Here is a link to the lighting kit:
