That train is named "Wainiha".  I think I put up a pic once before.

Wainiha is a valley and river.  It's where I grew up.  It means crazy waters.  And yes most of my friends and I drank from it as children.

You don't mess around in Wainiha.

Once the bead is seated, you simply add air and you're done. No expensive machines or tools required. Example:
