Hi Labmat

Thanks for the positive feedback,
I am happy to hear that you liked it. let me know how it goes with builiding it
if you ever need it, I can change the hole in the head of the windmill so it fits better for your engine:) I have 6 mm diameter and it is not sure your engine has the same diameter)

So let me know

Regards
C
