Look what I have.
A very well made Stuart 5A ( https://www.stuartmodels.com/item/109/stuart-5a-unmachined )
$1,240 for a casting kit plus shipping.
Forward -reverse about 15" tall.
The piston and cylinder are pristine. I ran it with shop air and seems to be very smooth and quiet.
I have ordered a PM research #5 as my first kit.
I plan on giving it a good cleaning but I am afraid I'll mess up the timing. I don't want to change a thing. The reverse lever works perfect too.
I thought you would appreciate it. I don't know anything about these things.
I got it with some hammers and files for <$50
How can I find out more about it? When was it cast, machined?
