Perhaps not the main point of the video, but I was struck by the paint job.
   We get so used to how a Wilesco "should" look... I had to go back and read the title of the thread again to be sure I was viewing a Wilesco!
   The black and grey is a bold change, specially the black boiler....I would have had a hard time covering Nickel with black paint...however, I must say it just works. I do like the black flywheel as well. :)

He does good work. Wilesco had the same color scheme on some of their models a few years back.
Personally, I think it needs something red, not a lot, but something. Maybe the knobs.

That's a great looking set up. A nice industrial look.
