There are TWO remaining, the pictures from the test, shows a different grip angle than these two

IMHO, I have always felt there would be 4 or 5 made. 1 as a tool room model (maybe two) that would stay behind, 1 meant for destruction / testing and at least another for testing in firing and a backup in country. if I was making them

Besides the damage that 'flash' can have on some textiles, usually its because the museum sells books on the collections
