This video takes us to the Laws Museum on 5-3-2018 for a visit with hit and miss engine expert Ron Morefield. Ron runs a Jaeger 3HP engine that powers a drill press and a saw. He also talked history with us about six different engines.
Here they are listed:
Jaeger 3HP hit and miss cement mixer engine
1868 2HP Colt-Baxter steam engine
1926 3½ HP Hercules hit and miss that ran an arrastra (mill)
3HP Novo vertical hit and miss engine
1914 Galloway 5HP hit and miss with interesting story to it
1916 20HP hit and miss that ran a three stamp mill
We all had fun talking with Ron and I think he enjoyed sharing his knowledge and stories.

Me, too. He had us all paying close attention to his stories. We spent a good two hours with Ron the day we visited the Laws Museum. It took us two days to get through the rest of the museum. Highly recommended and free, as well.

They are cool and I can see how you could become somewhat obsessed with them. Ron sure has a pile of them at the museum to tinker with. Thanks for the comment, Donny!

I was watching him start that engine and my first thought; OSHA would have a ball in that place if it was not a museum LOL. very good Tom, loved listening to his stories, thanks for taking us along. Have a good Memorial Day my friend.

The engines are not as loud as I expected but all of them running at once would be a riot. Thanks for commenting.

@TomandJulieMineExploring
@TomandJulieMineExploring 5 лет назад
It started off Ron was giving us(Julie and me) a kind of private behind the fence tour and no one else was around. A few people started showing up and he invited a couple more people in but not all of them. I was kind of wondering about the liability issue if someone got tangled up in a flywheel, but it was all cool. Thanks for the comment!

Looking at that shop, it occurs to me it was a bit hazardous to work around those engines, tools and belts. Dumb people didn't live too long. Maybe that explains why we have so many stupid people alive today?
@TomandJulieMineExploring
@TomandJulieMineExploring 3 года назад
You are correct. Those flywheels, belts and spinning shafts are all potential dangers. I'm not sure how old you are, but earlier in my life, I remember seeing more people missing fingers than I seem to see today. I agree that common sense doesn't seem as common as it once was. Thanks for the comment!
