$300 is actually not bad when compared to what an unmachined kit would cost. Thanks for all the effort you put into these videos!

@johnhili8664 29 дней назад

What effort he is doing this for money, he got the engine for free so that he can promote it on his sight and they he is getting money from RU-vid👎👎👎

@samshublom8761 5 месяцев назад

A kit like this could very well inspire a young person to embark on the hobby of building their own engines, or other machines, from scratch. That in turn could lead to a career in engineering. This is a good way to "prime the pump" so as to develop an interest in mechanical things and how they are made. Thank you for making this video.

Sam, the same thought occurred to me after drooling on the screen for awhile. Grandkids! They'd be better at those tiny screws too!

@jenniferwhitewolf3784 5 месяцев назад

I can tell you right now that you should plan on making that 4th video on how the governor works.. Some of us know how they work, but it would make great content, and be a good refresher to some, and introduction for others.

@garthbutton699 5 месяцев назад

Yes,agreed

@user-rk4zm3nb5f 5 месяцев назад

Very interesting. I can't wait to see the theory behind how that governor works. Great video, Mr Pete.

@hbracerx 4 месяца назад

There is a lot of attention to detail to make this more that just utilitarian. I love the little brass spoked knob/wheel on top of the boiler.

This will bring out the latent engineer in every boy and quite a few girls as well. Great introduction to the wonderful world of metal and steam.

What a lovely little model, looks like it's very well made for the price. Looking forward to seeing it run under steam in the next video. Thanks for sharing this Mrpete 👍👍👍

Thanks Mr Pete for all you do! The price isn’t that bad for all you get and the quality of the parts!

@bearsrodshop7067 5 месяцев назад

Very well made, and a true piece of art.

@billbogey3027 5 месяцев назад

Thank you, Mr. Pete! I just finished this model a couple of days ago, and I thought I was short one set screw for the flywheel. As one who doesn't read directions closely, I did not know the set crew was already in place. Looking forward to your explanation of the governor. Cheers!

@Vandal_Savage 5 месяцев назад

Nice looking thing. I think that I'd want some hose clamps on that silicone tubing, otherwise i could see them come flying off under heat and steam pressure and emptying the contents of the boiler all over the workshop...

You spoke to the beauty of the Victorian age, I hope you've seen the British steam sewage pumping stations from that era, several videos on here.

@keithpattison6763 5 месяцев назад

Hello Lyle, what a beautifully made little engine. It looks like it has been designed and made with pride, probably in China by the writing, could be Japanese. Stunning, can't wait to see it running.

@johnhili8664 29 дней назад

No its Chinese if it was made in Japan it would cost more:-))

@steveparker8723 5 месяцев назад

@kevinyeaton6963 5 месяцев назад

Very nice, Lyle. Just wanted to say a quick thank-you for your previous tip on how to find the Elmer's Engine book on-line. Coincidentally, I just finished the beam engine from that book. Fun project. Runs great and a beautiful display piece. Thanks again!

@mrpete222 5 месяцев назад

@Duckfarmer27 5 месяцев назад

Lyle - Very nicely done - both the little engine and the video. Almost a history lesson if you want of the start of the industrial revolution, James Watt and all. Those of us who were educated as mechanical engineers using slide rules and the steam tables especially got a chuckle out of it all - at least I did. By all means cover how the valving and governor works - I'm sure people will find it fascinating. But then I'm prejudiced, being one of those old slide rule and steam table guys. We'll have to see if you need to tune the whistle. LOL

@kenhukushi1637 4 месяца назад

It looks well made. The instructions in English look decent. They can do nice work in China when the designers aren't bound to lowest price.

@ellieprice363 4 месяца назад

The price is very reasonable considering that at least $150K of high production precision tooling had to be made and tested to produce the high quality parts.

@richardbrobeck2384 5 месяцев назад

@mmay3830 5 месяцев назад

Of machining interest, those “tool marks” seen at 8:50 on the shaft flats are from a reciprocating wire edm, not the bottom of an endmill. The lines are where the molybdenum wire reverses direction. Under magnification you should be able to see on the surface the shape was electrically eroded away.

@mrpete222 5 месяцев назад

Thanks

@ellieprice363 4 месяца назад

Thanks. I’ve made a lot of high production tooling for continuous wire (Agie) EDM machines but never heard of the type that you mentioned before. Learning something new every day is what makes this trade so interesting.

@mmay3830 4 месяца назад

GF has also been making them for several years now too, I believe, have seen a couple but only in Asia so far. No birds nest or chopper bin of brass, no tank, just flooded with electrolyte. I’d guess they notch those parts stacked 6-8 inches high. Really quite efficient on consumables

Beautiful product. Love the fact that no plastic was used. I hate plastic.

@seapy2398 5 месяцев назад

Almost none... What about the steam pipes, could have been copper perhaps?

@normtheteacher5485 5 месяцев назад

@@seapy2398 I didn't watch the entire video. Didn't catch the steam pipes. Yes, they should have been copper. I'll let them slide on that one. Still a great product. Hopefully they will convert to using copper. I generally do hate plastic, but in all fairness to plastic every now and then I can see it being useful. One example is where I am experimenting with an older car I am restoring. I ran some clear plastic tubing in the fuel delivery system so I could visually monitor the flow of gasoline through the system. That clear plastic came in very handy in educating me on that fuel system.

I just knew you werent going to fire it up.I had the German made one back in the '60s.Quality wasnt all that impressive considering the cost.Why those things are so expensive I have no idea.Theres really not much to them.At least mine wasnt.The little capsules that came with it to fire the boiler were useless.
