I don't even own an electric can opener, just a manual one. My wife won't let me open up the KitchenAid stand mixer to see if I can make it work better 😄.
Back on topic. Would it be possible to swap a MTH Premier Mikado chassis under a K-Line heavy Mikado boiler?

I’m sure it would, it’d be just like the Kline Hudson with the MTH chassis, heavy fab work, careful measurements, and some machined mounting points....both the MTH Mike and the TMCC Lionel Mike have large Pittmans already in them.....as many Mikes are out on the market, it really wouldn’t make sense to dig that deep into a Mike...in the case of the Kline Hudson, it’s probably one of, if not the best diecast J1 made...so it’s worthy of some effort.....you’d need to be absolutely in love with a Kline Mike to do that kinda swap...or if you or someone got one so dirt cheap it doesn’t matter....
