Jonathon W visit & Marine steam engine first start attempt, WILL IT RUN?

[@ironcladranchandforge7292]

Jonathan is one of my favorites. I've watched him for years and never miss a video. The man is a mechanical genius!!

[@RustyRescues]

Likewise, he is a true kindred spirit that exemplifies patience, passion, and good old American ingenuity.

I've always enjoyed Jonathan's channel and watch everything he's done. I sure envy you getting to meet him and tour the "toys" that he keeps.

Lovely to see a steam special! Especially since I just bought my first steam engine a couple weeks back

[@RustyRescues]

Excellent! I recently rescued a small vertical stationary engine that may make its way onto the channel eventually.

Wow. What a treat to get a tour of Johnathan’s place. This is bucket list for me.

[@sallybrokaw6124]

Johnathon has amassed in a short time an impressive collection of steam engines. Its neat to see his mechanical mind assemble and create missing parts. Best of all most of his engines run and not just a static display. AL B.

I just love the old steam engines. They are a living, breathing beast, with personality.

Long live the quirky/eccentric people... 👍👌
