    That one is looking better then mine, the plating on the tank on my BR 49 is bad. I had to be very carefull with cleaning the tank, the plating was coming off easily.

    Johan, they’re interesting Badges of service.

    Mine fires up every time, no problems. Very little smoke if any.
    I kinda like the BR49 because it’s different and I’m now tinkering with a X359 with the preheater.
    Cheers
    Peter
