Now that is cute.
Being a toolmaker in a past life I have a real appreciation for what it takes to build something like that.
Some people have waaay to much time on their hands.

Here's another link where he talks about rpm and hp (I think, unless the 8,000 refers to $$) - shows 3 mini engines

It's a always a long winter up here and I am driving my 48 every day. The flathead is the easiest to start regardless of weather.
