William's proud possession |
On arrival, it was tarnished but in good working order and a definite possibility.
Clearly, it once had a sticky label attached |
Gun-metal mounting and steam inlet to the left |
It's such a simple, passive device, I'm sure I could have made one! |
Cap machined from solid gun-metal |
Shiny and clean as a whistle! |
Despite many attempts at testing the whistle with compressed air, my neighbours are still talking to me. However, when I put the video below together, it frightened the hell out of the local cats and the next-door dog had a fit!
(Note: I've sometimes had trouble playing the video repeatedly. If this is the case, reload the window (F5 on PCs) and try again). Alternatively, it's here on YouTube.
like yer whistle - very shiny and a sweet little parp - and can we use some of your grisse d'elbeau? so much classier than our english version!
ReplyDeleteI'll send some grisse d'elbeaux over to you!
