I've started a new tradition at our household... I have set up an area in the living room for one (or several small) set(s) to be displayed on a rotating basis. So far this has been used to display and "run in" of sets that have just "cleared the bench". Results have been very positive, most non-technical visitors show modest to high interest in these odd looking vintage sets.
The first sets to be exposed to "public display" were the two suitcase sets that I recently finished.
After several weeks they were rotated out and replaced with a GE 10T4 that just received a re-cap.
Today the Admiral 19A1 re-cap was finished, and it has "hit the hearth".
We are having great fun with this, and I must add that my wife is very supportive, the new tradition will continue.
