my friend you need to STOP using your hand as a hammer. Believe me you will pay dearly in your later years. I am 66 and a retired millwright and made this same mistake. I pay in pain every day now. Do as you will but you have been told ! Stop trying to move that wrench by hitting with your hand please. Love your videos !
I’m in my mid 60s hands are fine but my apprenticeship taught me to use the correct tools. Hammers hit things. Hands hold hammers. Use a soft face hammer to persuade spanners or better use a longer spanner.
I heard this all the time and now I’m 38 and hands and wrists hurt. Nerve pain in the my right hand. I ran Bridgeport mills and slammed the wrench to release collets more than I can remember. Did the same in construction slamming pry bars and other tools all the time.
This is so true.. 42 and hand to have surgery to my hand and mainly reason below.. Pain still there but better
Gloves … I felt so weird watching him clean the unit with his hands. My bare hands would find something sharp, sooner or later.
Listen to this guy . I prided myself on being to out bullwork almost everyone .Making my 20-something-/compadres look lacklustre to the old bohunk (spent a lot of time in the gym working out ..l)… right up to sixty, and everything went at once . Protect your health and treat it as the gift it is and was
craftsmen like you is why i love YT..simple, but extensive information wout screaming or acting the fool..no begging for money or selling overpriced stuff..you deserve much more recognition..these old machines are such a work or art and manufacturing..keep up the great content..
Thank you. Yes that is what I enjoy the most also. No hard rock music and screaming aboute how cool things are and jumping around like gorillas.
This is truly some of the best content on youtube! These old machines are works of art, from elegant to whimsical, but always ready to work. I have to watch sections of this video again, because I don't want to miss anything. The engineering is awe inspiring. Every single part has a purpose. Thanks for taking us along!
Hi! Thank you! Yes, every pice is hand made and last adjustment are made with love and pride of their work. /Richard
Are you bri'ish?
If you have ever tried to make something like that yourself from scratch you would understand why they are so dead simple. Every extra complication adds so much extra work and pain and possible mistake you will need to fix.
You start out wanting to add all this stuff and making it pretty, but not even halfway through and you just wanna see it working.
24:05 first start attempt
@@blindfoldedmissile NO ,HE IS SWEDISH!
One of, if not the best videos I have seen in a LONG time, THANK YOU!
Thank you! Next up is piston rings. /Richard
I've never considered myself a mechanic, but these old engines have always called to me. Once in Ohio, I had the pleasure of seeing a handful of them at a maple festival, I watched for hours!
It's about the peak of what can be done with "just your hands" so to speak. You are in control of every step needed to fix, run, and build these things. Once you start needed electronics to be involved, I think you start attracting different crowds that like working with those things. But if someone wants something that doesn't need any programming, and you can build replacement parts yourself, this is it.
I recently was made aware of your channel by a friend and find it to my liking. I like mechanical things that you can service with simple tools such as an adjustable wrench, screwdriver and hammer. The fuel system is a work of art. The water pump is also simply wonderful in design. Very interesting these early cross head oil engines are. Cheers
Love watching and learning from your vids. I remember when i was at horticultural college in 1982 that we used two rotovators. One was a merry tiller ( 1947 ) and the other was a much earlier model that was diesel powered, a real faff to start, ( 1909 ): which involved offering a paraffin soaked lit rag on the end of a drain rod into an open cavity to encourage the diesel to ignite and cranking the starter at the same time. The funny thing was that although a bugger to start, the older machine, once started was much easier to control and didn't spin and dig itself into the heavy clay soil we were working on, like the much later merry tiller did.
You simply got to admit these old mechanical marvels were engineered and built by absolute geniuses. I mean, look at the simplicity of the regulator mechanism. Nowadays, to replace a simple joint and a weight, they would install a myriad of sensors, circuit boards and microcontrollers filled to the brim with opaque software using last generation planned obsolescence driven design... Anyway, thank you for the excellent video!
What a beautiful machine. Thank you for sharing the prep to make it run. I can just about say that I understand how everything works.
Good! An interesting engine for sure. /Richard
the best and enjoyable videos on RUclips. I love old engines.myself and love to bring them back to life.
109 years old and still strong. It looks to have been well taken care of in spite of its age. A beauty of an engine. Luck be it YT recommended this video a few hours after the second part in this series came out. Subbed for the simple, hands down approach. Cheers.
I just found this channel by accident and really enjoying it. Who doesn't like old stuff ?
This is the Americana version of passing down wisdom at the fire pit from the Indian Chief.
This video really hit home with my roots with old agricultural equipment and old cars. Aside from the amazing content, the video and narration were excellent. Thank you very much for the contented smile on my face.
Kid's nowadays will never understand simplicity and reliability without these works of art that still exist a 120yrs later.
Really enjoy watching you bring these pieces to life again. Keep up the great work!
Beautifully explained. It’s great to see these old motors that can be tidied up with a little maintenance with minimal tools and start instead of all these modern computerised bits of crap these days. The acronym “K.I.S.S.” definitely applies. Love your work. 👏👏😁🇦🇺
What a great addition to your collection. Can't wait for the next installment. Thanks !!
Did something happen to you?! It's been year since you posted a video! We miss your videos! PLEASE GIVE US MORE VIDEOS! you have one of the best channels out there!
Hi! Thanks. I am all good. Working on videos now. /Richard
Absolutely fascinating, like the way you explain everything and not just fix it. These old machines if looked after will go on for years.
Thank you! /Richard
You do an excellent job explaining these old engines. It is fascinating. Thank you from Illinois, USA.
Thank you! /Richard in Sweden.
I have a reverence and respect for these old stationary engines that I believe stemmed from visits to my great Uncles’s Farm as a small child. I was allowed to stand close and watch as a 5 year old, the milking machine that was powered by a stationary engine mounted outside the milking parlour. It was started twice a day and I was fascinated by the regular popping sound and whirring fly wheel, connected by belt drive to the pumps and cooling machines inside the Milking Parlour. The rhythm and sounds captivated and excited me, being totally unaware the inherent dangers of getting too close to the exposed machinery. Health and safety considerations were unheard of in those days. At the end of milking I remember it was never easy to actually get the engine to start or stop, valves would be turned off, but somehow the engine would splutter and start up again much to the aggravation of my uncle who cursed it furiously. It seemed to have a life of its own. That was over 70 + years ago, when life was much simpler then and I also remember suddenly being aware of the birds singing again around the Farm yard after the engine had stopped.
Richard, this is by far my favorite channel. I think it is great what you do and how you do it. Like that you are not afraid of putting vintage machines to work.
Thank you! /Richard
I have to applaud the effort you put both in your machines and in the video. Your enthusiasm for these things is contagious. I discovered your channel only recently and now I can't wait for more. Awesome beard and mustache too.
Good show! Thanks for posting.
Thanks Richard, these old engines are great.
NOT 'Can We get it Running?' but a major service done by a man whom clearly knew exactly what he was doing.
Can't wait to see the new rings being made.
Fantastic content, love the engineering of these machines from yesteryear. And the way you present it is great! Looking forward to seeing parts two and three!
Thank you! /Richard
I dont think there was a single second that went by that I didnt learn something. Thoroughly enjoyed!
What a beautiful machine. Thank you for showing us!
It's so wonderful to see you back. Also it's interesting to watch you without snow or heavy clothes on! I can't wait to see the rest of the videos and watch the engine run. Please don't take so long between videos next time!
Thanks! Always short of time, but now there will be more! /Richard
Always Interesting 👍🏻🌟
Looking forward to part 2.
I Would to 😁😁
You got me with "131 easy steps" ... I'm off to the second video...
Thank you for keeping this knowledge alive and sharing it. Jim Bell (Australia)
Awesome video! Youwould love my neighbor. He has a large collection of hit and miss engines. From big to small. And he makes miniature working engines. Pretty cool stuff
Marvellous job,what a lucky find
Love watching and learning about these old Volvo engines
Sir, you are an excellent mechanic. You repair and teach at the same time. Eagerly awaiting the next installment. Stay well.
Thank you Rich. Next on is a good one. /Richard
You are very impressive because of your extensive knowledge and skill especially so because of your young age! You are a true “technician” over and above a good mechanic. I learned a lot from this video which is the first of yours I’ve found. I have given it a “like” and have subscribed. Georgia, USA.
Another great Video, Thank you for sharing Richard.
VERY INTERESTING!!!! GREAT VIDEO
Thanks! /Richard
Hi Richard
So good to have you back again. By far THE best old machinery channel in YT… thank you
Christoph
Hi! Oh thanks! Always so nice to get good feedback! /Richard
Cool.. Thanks for sharing.
The usual great content with very interesting machines. Thanks for this Richard
Thank you. /Richard
I love the "Hit and Miss" engines this was so interesting. Thank you.
Yes, i am very happy to finally find one!
Fantastic video, love the way you'r working on old engines!
I am very much looking forward to the next part on ,this engine. I Liked,shared. All my very best.
I have watched quite a lot of old machinery videos, thank you for showing and explaining the simple elegance of the machine, i subscribed as i am interested to see where this goes and i look forward to watching more of your videos (already uploaded and yet to be made) in the future!
Hi! And thanks! There will be a lot more. /Richard
I'm looking all over for something like this around me in south Texas. No joy yet. You are very clear and detailed on this. Thank you. I'm learning, and one day, may be able to put it to use.
Keep on searching! Some day.
In Florida we have the Florida Flywheelers club. I am sure Texas has something similar, Ask the old guys at a Tractor show they collect all kinds of old engines and know who has them
@@AtlasLathe I will do that. They used to have an old tractor meet about 60 miles east of here. I dig into that. Thanks for the advice!!!
@@stxrynn keep in mind they love to talk and it may take some time. Most of them are very helpful especially if you are younger and are interested in working on the old mechanical treasures. I am in my 50s I wish more young people would take more time to learn from our older generation before they are gone. Good luck on your search. I am currently working on a 71 troy bilt tiller rebuild for the garden that may be necessary soon. I like the 4 jaw Chuck in the profile
I know what you mean about the scarcity of old iron in South Texas. I don’t see much in Central Texas. I lived in Colorado for a few years and my son and I drove up to Wyoming to pick up a lathe and the fellow had half a dozen hit and miss engines sitting in his warehouse. He offered to sell me the worst one for $40! The South Bend lathe had filled up the truck bed so I decided to pass. Those old engines are all over the MidWest, some still running!
you were BLESSED to find it stored kinda inside so far (5 minutes in) it looks to be in decent condition what a find!!!
This is one of this channels where you see the name and thumbnail, and you just know you're gonna love subscribing for life..
I love your videos, they make me want to get my finger out and get my IHC 1.5hp engine of 1908 out of the garage and run it again.
Just bought a 3hp ihc engine from 1920's. Video is all done but the coils in the magneto is bad. /Richard
Amazing engine , lots of heavy duty steel ! I think you are lucky to find it in good condition , i never have seen one like it ! The Swedes are fine engineers ! I am looking forward to hear it run , i usually make it to a Gas and team engine show here in Indiana and see all the sawmills ,tractors and engines running ! Smart people back in the old days ! Good lick ! Thanks
As usual very interesting. And the origin of the engine makes me proud and warm in my heart. As I mentioned earlier, my mother came from Vimmerby. First Appelkulla and then Stenkulla. And no matter how simple the construction is, there are some clever solutions. (water injection) And admittedly I am so old that one or two cars he I lubricate during my short time in the lubrication pit. But the lubrication you did gave it a "face". And of course I lubricate my DB Selctamatic in between. Luckily I got some training as a child on a farm during the summer holidays. Thank you for taking care of these old fine gems. AND in a good and interesting way describes functions and what they used these machines for. Many thanks for that!
Hi! And thank's. Cool that you have history in Vimmerby. Would have been nice to live in the early 1900s for a week or so. /Richard
Hey great video I love all those old machines!! I honestly believe we as a people will run out of oil in the future which means no plastics either so we would have to revert back to the old technology. To get by and make ends meet we would need all the old hand tools, horse and buggy, etc. that our ancestors left behind!
Hello from Kentucky, USA! I really love watching your videos. You’re a meticulous mechanic, keep up the good work!
Do you have any tools besides an adjustable wrench (crescent) and a pair of slip joint pliers?
Very nice piece of work and really interesting, Thank You Sir 👍👍👍😊
I'm a new viewer here from Australia. This is *REALLY GREAT* content - thanks very much for showing us these treasures!
I cannot believe the excellent overall condition of this engine. Old machines like that in Australia were usually left out in the field to rust away, so seeing yours was fabulous... even if it didn't work yet!
Also great to have a change from the "American" vintage machinery channels. We got lots of Swedish tools here in AU, but early machinery came from England, US or most commonly was made here. I got to go watch that $10 Volvo Tractor video next - we most commonly see Fergusons in that age/class of machine.
I've just subscribed - this is perfect to watch during winter nights here in Sydney. Almost freezing here 13°C at midnight in mid-winter, and we will only hit 17°C tomorrow. Sunny (finally) so I won't need a jacket, just a T-shirt LOL
same her the oil motor is perfekt !! . it s like new !! i love it
When you say it runs on crude does that mean it runs on literally unrefined black sludge?
@@craigbowley6783 yes thats exactly what they did. most oli wells would have an engine like this to run the pump while running directly off the well
This is very interesting I love to see old machinery torn apart and repaired it is what I always liked to do when I was younger and still do
Nice to be able to work in a t-shirt, and hear the birdsong. Thanks.
I had no idea these engines even existed I learned a lot watching your video and I found it very interesting now I'm a subscriber to your channel I can't wait to watch some more of your videos THANKS for sharing them with us ! 👍 WOW..!!😯 what a cool collection you have !
Another interesting video. It is clear how this engine design descended from a steam engine. I enjoy how you explain how the machine works and what you are doing to it. This is the first time I remember seeing the inside of a hot bulb. It was somewhat different than what I expected. I'm eager to see the next video in this series so I can learn how you make piston rings.
I can't wait to see that beautiful engine run!
Sure is a beauty! /Richard
Great love old stationary engines, played with many but none this large
All the little details are so cool. This is like halfway between industrial and blacksmithing.
Enjoyed this adventure into early engines, I also appreciated you had no adverts interrupting. Look forward to the next,
wonderful piece of machinery! a rare find for sure in that condition and completeness
I can't wait to see the next video! 😃
Piston ring making video and part 2 of this engine is done. Will be uploaded soon 🙂
What a great find. Impressive condition considering it's age. It must have been well cared for over its life. Thanks for an interesting video.
Yes i think so too. Very well made. The Beijer engine factory was around 1h drive from where i live. /Richard
So much fun! Looking forward to the next part!
Loving the notes on the back of his hand... I thought I was the only one that did that.
Really love to see you work with these old machines and engines!!! Longing for part two already ;-)
Hehe, Thank you Pelle! Part 2 will be good 😎 /Richard
This is a very interesting engine, very early construction. I enjoy your videos they're always great and informative. Thank you.
Thanks! Yes, lots of old designs. Very much like a steam engine.
I like the way you tackle things with a great deal of mechanical sympathy! For example, many people would just heave on a wrench or shifter to get the old fasteners undone -- but you are doing things right: first you make sure the tool is a good close fit, and then you tap it with your fist to get it moving. 👍
Love from Sri Lanka🇱🇰
Great video , looking forward to the next installment 👍🇬🇧
Wish I had friends like you guys.
So glad more of your videos came out love this stuff! ♥️
Thanks mate! /Richard
A two cycle deflector head engine. Very interesting. The piston rod packing allows the back of the piston to force the new charge of air through the transfer ports into the combustion area. The long stroke allows the compression necessary to ignite the fuel in the hot bulb. A very efficient design. The engine does not use fuel on the "miss" unlike the old "hit" and "miss" spark engines. Enjoying the content.
Great video. Fast forward to the next one. Nice channel. Thanks.
That's what I like to see - really looking forward to part two! ...and three, of course ;))
Greetings from Texas, USA. I am now a new subscriber as I really enjoy your channel. Thank you for sharing your work with us. Take care
I know nothing about these engines but found this video to be very, very interesting. I’m impressed with your knowledge of these things.
Gorgeous engine!!
Very interesting and technical video compliments !!!
Can't wait to see the re-assembly. Good job trying to get it started
This is gonna be good...
It will.
Just found your channel and by coincidence, I just brought home an old hit & miss wrench from a rummage store. In order to keep from damaging all those original brass fittings I recommend investing in some line wrenches. You'll find they're indispensable.
Thanks for sharing your skills
As we say in Yorkshire, "I take my hat off to thee lad, that's brilliant " Thanks for sharing, always enjoy your videos, best regards from Ireland.
Nice to hear from Ireland! Wish you all well. /Richard
Glad I found your channel .made my day .
Thanks mate. /Richard
What an amazing find hello from Australia
Thank you very much for what you do Richard.
Thank for watching all stuff that i do! / Richard
Very nice to see old machines run. Good job.
Thank you. /Richard
Must have a sweet oil can collection!
Thanks for the great video!
Thank you! /Richard
looking forward to the continuation...my evening's entertainment very awesome! .... thank you
need more videos as you have time these old engines are neat
Yes, short of time right now. But hope to have more of that now in late summer. /Richard
Just found your channel today. I do believe I will be a fan in short order. Now to binge watch a few passed episodes. 🇨🇦
HI! Hope you will find it interesting! /Richard
This whole video goes to show that machinery CAN be made simple, especially so that a person with average mechanical skills can maintain it. I used to be an auto mechanic (pre-1984) when car were much simpler. Nowadays, you need a brain surgeon to repair them. I see no reason why a car cannot be made simply for a person who simply wants to go from point A to B, one that s/he with limited income can maintain at the lowest cost. Pollution> I was able to tune a 1971 3-K engine so that it passed CA emissions, so no one can tell me that it can't be done. Good, informative video. A real object lesson.
Fantastic, thanks very much.
Looking forward to the next part.
