Well I have one of the singles , boiler (no tubes) wheels , horn plates,part tender, and a bag of bits owing me twice what its worth, I also have the other crane , which at present we have striped down to boiler , owing to some "bl**dy terrible engineering. Mr Page left me with none of the 3 shafts in line , cylinder not square with crank, no axle bearings and all gear cut wrong , a crane which has taken 4 weeks to totaly rebuild and to cap it all the horn plates were not fixed to the boiler at the bottom which would have alowed the boiler to drop ! !
If it was not for Simon Caudwell and Lew Lewis and Dave Ragsdale I would be basicly stuffed
I do not like dissing anyone but I do hope he never makes another engine .However I am determined not to let it get me down, this engine WILL be one of the best !
