A few months ago when I picked up the PAW19 in a swap I was at bobs hobby ctr in orlando
One of the guys I was talking to had just bought some stuff I think he was into giant scale
we walked out together and just shooting the breeze, Turns out he has a museum around
Cypress Gardens that has all kinds of tractors stationary engines gas naptha steam etc
They have a big meet there in Nov. where folks bring their stuff and display and run/
He invited me down for the next one and thought the PAW would be a neat thing to
see running

I am a design engineer for a company that does engine design and counsulation. A few of the guys I work with asked about a little display for the design area. I put out a blanket Email to the group and recieved an overwhelming response. The VP called me and my departmental ehhibit has turned into a 2 week lobby exhibit with video conferencing with at least one of our out-of-state offices with lecture on my part and demo runs in the garage of sparkies, diesels and glow engines. My exhibit will include antiques from both my father's and my collections as well as a few of my construction and restoration projects.
