I think that's probably still pretty much the case but, if  ever an engine caused me to reconsider my opinion, it's this one. I won't dilate  at length on it, there are several dozen pictures below which show the standard  of finish and detailing achieved - suffice to say I've neither owned nor, I  think, seen a finer example of a stationary engine modelled.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eBuilt to works drawings, this is a one eighth scale model of an  Alfred Dodman 13 x 27 x 18 compound marine engine of 1910, complete with barring gear  (including ratchet wrench), condenser and air pumps. Highly detailed thoughout, fit and  finish is to exhibition standard with highly burnished bright work, locking nuts  and split pins everywhere down to the tiniest size imaginable. The whole thing  is housed in a custom made case, glazed in toughened glass with hidden screws  securing the top to the base.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eCurrently looking magnificent in our dining room at home.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eEngine 13 inches high\u003cbr\u003e  Base 15 inches square\u003cbr\u003e  Height to top of case 18 inches\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Station Road Steam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54019036283221,"sku":"6954","price":6500.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0094\/2677\/files\/6954-1.webp?v=1779901297","url":"https:\/\/stationroadsteam.com\/products\/1-12-inch-scale-alfred-dodman-compound-marine-engine-stock-code-6954","provider":"Station Road Steam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
