Lovely engine Nick and a great addition.

The syringe was a great idea and kept them busy for awhile filling it up :) loved the "Whoaa" followed by the next "Whoaaa" ...... made my day mate hearing those exclamations of excitement!!!

Terrific time with the new engine spending time with your sons.

Haha, I do have much larger syringes, but figured the little one was safer  :D

They had to light the gas burner about 10 times each too  :D

That picture in your post is priceless. Your youngest one, wide eyed and all smiles.
Oh yeah, the video was cool too, sorry.
