Attention to detail is rarely simple, but doesn’t have to be complicated. I’m sure these toys inspired parts of a generation to build big. Well done and thank you.

Love the homemade orange, looks better than regular! As Yoda would say, "Simple it is not".

Thank you! Cheers!

TimeRideeeerrrr!! Nice restoration, Brother! Looks great! I used to work at a heavy equipment dealership. We carried Drott parts amongst other heavy equipment parts. Every now and again, we'd get a Drott machine into the shop. More often were the Case Drott machines. Anyway, enough rambling. Have a great day!

I always like it when a product is so good, that it becomes the name of the product, like Kleenex. Thanks for watching!
