Restoration 1 - Wilesco D20 steam engine (1960's model)

Trying out the no-talking & no-music format in this video, let me know if you prefer this over my narrated + music format. My first restoration project is a 1960's Wilesco D20 model steam engine, the original model which has the steam exhaust into a small plastic container. The later model instead had the exhaust run into the smoke stack for a "smoke" effect. I take it apart, clean it up and give it a different style, with some custom woodwork. At a later date I will have another go at this model to fix some mistakes with the paintjob and address some annoyances. I also want to add a simple condenser and water pump so it recycles the exhaust steam for the boiler. It will eventually run a DIY musical instrument, but I'm still pondering on the design.
