Thanks everyone!

Mike, I like the vents too, but I think they are just "dummy vents" as it's completely open underneath.
They would help though if you were running the engine outside. It might keep the wind from blowing through the firebox. |

Very nice engine Nick. Unfortunately the vid aren't loading at the moment so I'll keep checking.
Are they Jensen tools? Can you do some more detailed photos of them please?

Are they working yet Stephen? (I can upload them to PB if not)
I think it may be since they are embedded (something needs to be changed in your profile to allow viewing them), but until then, here's the links:

They are Jensen tools, an early, blue-based Model 100 workshop. Here's the close-ups you requested.

Got the vids now Nick - really enjoyed them!
My browser seem to be a bit hit-and-miss with the vidoe posts, some days they're ok, others it's just blank (a bit like me!).
Thanks for the detailed shots of the tools. The Jensens are just that bit different, nice designing. I'll keep my eye on US eBay for some examples.
