That made for a rather pleasant interlude ...  and I like the assortment of flywheels in the background as well as the multi-camlock type wrench.

Something tells me that hanging around your shop would be a real pleasure!

Thanks for the comments, guys. The windmill took a beating, along with the other balsa wood bits, courtesy of USPS. It was all a mess by the time they finished bashing it around. Tom was a swell guy and refunded the purchase, and i was able to salvage the windmill with a little patience and a lot of a lean(not sure it's visible but it has a bit of a cant to the rear). The rest was a jigsaw puzzle of balsa...
