My father was called Dr. of engines from collectors across the United States! He had over 350 antique hit and miss gas engines! Titans, Galloways, sandwich etc. 👍
I love these old engines. I also think it's cute that it appears this widow maker's full-time job is to cut fire wood for its own fire box. I enjoyed the video and thank you for sharing. Cheers!
I'd argue that this setup is safer than modern saws. There are no pinch points and plenty of clearance around the saw, you'd likely get bounced off or thrown away from it if you came into contact with it. Modern saws with their metal shields and plastic retractable safety guards are death traps guaranteed to suck anything they grab into them. The only death trap really present is where the belt returns to the flywheel, but you'd basically have to lunge into it willingly, there's no reason to be anywhere near it during operation.

I'm late to the party, but many thanks for the Rites Patent Governor information. I watched the entire video without seeing any sign of a classical flyball mechanism, and was baffled by your references to a governor. Once I read your text all made sense. I have now d'loaded copies of various Rites patents for further study. Great fun!
When crosscutting, having one hand on each side of the blade will close the kerf and bind the saw. Use both hands on one side, or one hand and a push stick when the stock gets short.
This is GREAT, cutting wood for the boiler and probably for a stove in the house. I am familiar with governor flyweights, seen those on engines at N.E. steam an wireless museum, love to see a 3 phase alternator with exciter as amps an volts are my thing. This is very impressive .
Ah, the memories this video evoked. You might want to check the dish on the saw blade. It should "sing" when buzzing wood. Also the RPMs are a bit low. Or perhaps, get a larger diameter blade.
Lol....that belt looks like a monster laughing! Just a couple days ago I was in the woods visiting the site of an old mine and stamp mill here in Oregon. It was a intensely quiet and peaceful. You know that to run that mill they had to have at least one of these things running constantly to crush the ore. The sound must have carried for miles!
I am so glad I don't have neighbors ! I could never live beside anyone... I have to have my own space... I would go into a deep depression without it..
Not only are the pillows loose and worn ,the wobbling is beating the rod and eccentric bearings. I know I would be running it and sawing and playing also ,before taking apart and re bearing it. It’s better and more fun that way,it’s the only way, and as you are rebuilding ,you hear it running in your head!
The flat belt seems loose, which lets it slip. Also,, from my experience in belt work, you might want to flip the belt inside out on one side, which makes the belt stand on it's side in the middle. It keeps it from flapping up and down. It also wears on both sides, extending belt life.
Great video, I'm a retired operating steam engineer and have falling in love with your boiler and cut off saw. wish you lived close to me, your friend from Fl. thank you for your time!
Steam has an awesome amount of power but only when you reave your belt correctly. You have the belt on the flywheel it should be on the drive wheel, sharpen your tools, more often. It will not stall if you set up the ratio properly.
No he placed the belt on right direction because high rpm for blade is needed for cutting operation if he place the belt on drive wheel then blade will rotate with low rpm with no optimum cuttings!
Я думаю всё заточено под бревна гораздо большего размера и длины , а иностранец пилит на кусочки "пятаки"! Леса то у них нет! Хотя и у нас, теперь, нет. Классная техника! А диск просится на подточить.
The sound of that buzz saw blade stalling out in that block of wood raises the hair on my arms, I use to hate cutting firewood with my father, who ran a model T ford engine and a similar swing table set up. I had to stack the blocks and being about 10 years old, I was never fast enough or strong enough.
Interesting story. A friend of mine really enjoys cutting. When I would take the saw to a show he wanted to do the sawing and I let him. It reminded him of the time he did it with his father.
That's a pretty early patent for automatic cut off. You can really see the valve stroke increase as the speed slows down. Very nice demonstration and video. Hope to see more of it when you get it straightened out a little more.....Dave
Gracias por mostrarnos como funcionan estas máquinas. Parte del mundo moderno fue hecho con máquinas como estas. En un futuro apocalíptico el mundo volverá a ellas (Ojalá nunca pase). Mis saludos desde España.
This steam engine is totally worn out, everywhere there is slack, to start on the head crankshaft. Those bearings are totally worn out. Fun hobby project for the winter.
Den meisten Spass, macht das feuern des Kessels, dann kommt die Versorgung der Dampfmaschine und, naja als notwendiges Übel, die Arbeit an der Kreisäge, damit man wieder feuern kann. Ich liebe diese Maschinen. The most fun, makes the firing of the boiler, then comes the supply of the steam engine and, well as a necessary evil, the work on the Kreisäge, so you can fire again. I love these machines.
That is a great steam engine. I fully understand why you want to play with it. You are loosing a TON OF MECHANICAL POWER DUE TO BAD BEARINGS... If you keep running it. YOU WILL COMPLETELY DESTORY IT! I clench my teeth listing to her eat her self on every turn of the crank turns. Being the crank bearings are bad. I would be willing to bet the cylinder is also worn out and you are loosing a lot of mechanical work there as well. I truly hope your restore the engine. Thanks for sharing it with us...
When everything else will not be working anymore, steam is it: nifnafnifnafnifnaf....Not a joke: do you remember those boilers mounted to the backs of cars to keep them running despite fuel shortages? In French they were called "gazogène", the German word for these things is "Holzgasgenerator": mind you, they could once stage a comeback!
Route the engine exhaust into and up the boiler smoke stack. The discharge up the stack will help draft the fire box a stoke the fuel. And running you belt on the smaller diameter "belt drive wheel" will let the flywheel do its job and you wont experience as much speed loss when cutting. And your belt is really loose!
Very interesting Video. Jewels are well made engines. You have an interesting channel and do nice work.Good projects.Lots of behind the scenes "work" goes on behind these short videos and I can see how hard you work at it. Thank you:) Lester Bowman.
I think it is really great to see that Brownell boiler in action, as it was made not far from where I live in Dayton Ohio. Hard to believe Dayton used to be such a center of heavy industry at one time, but it is true.
I like the Brownell boiler too since it an Ohio Standard boiler which it is built heaver than contemporary boilers. Most boilers this size, built for 100psi, would have a 1/4" shell. The shell on this one is close to 5/16"
Even in its time, this is a very simple and low performance steam engine. Maybe not more than 3% of energy benefit. This would be a cheap and simple version, for small farm jobs. Not for lumber industry or carpentry. It should not be forgotten that 130 years earlier, James Watt had already invented, the steam condenser, multiple cylinders of double or triple expansion, and by 1830 Stephenson link gear and Walschaerts valve gear in 1865. None of these technical advances is in this simple engine
Oh OSHA is gonna get you...:-) great video. That thing scared me and I'm watching on RUclips. I thought the engine was take off the way it was going. Great video, lots of hard work on your part...thanks for sharing...
Man I love these! A wonderful feat of engineering. Back when there was pride and craftsmanship. A true product that was meant to last. As opposed to the disposable garbage built today. Lets see any Wal-Mart junk last 100 years HAHA. I love seeing these old engines be them steam, or oil/gas/diesel fueled, still alive and kicking, and still being put to good work!
What a load of BS. That's like all those people that say how much better old cars were because after spending thousands of dollars on them they can be made to run and look new again, so somehow they must be better than a modern engine that can go for 300,000 miles without a major rebuild whereas those old engines were basically shot after 100,000 and needed a rebuild.
The way it’s going is, saw a few pieces of wood, put them in the fire 🔥,adjust the engine, saw some more, elicit the help of an inspector,saw , drink ,eat ,stand and marvel in awe of the awsome set up. But there is no wood to sell to support the operation?🤑. So it’s a closed loop? I would not change a thing.
I hate to be negative ...BUT fix the bearings on the flywheel before you do irreparable harm to that lovely machine ! their pour in bearings and easy to do in an afternoon ! and Oil the slide ! fill those oilers ! the setup you have is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars but will be worthless scrap metal if you do not maintain it carefully ! that engine should not be ran till the bearings are fixed !....Period ! ...and sharpen the bloody saw too !.... I see no governor on that thing just an oiler.... don't run it faster than 250 RPM ...AFTER the bearings are fixed ! ..... beautiful setup I wish I had it ! way to go ! Bob.....
I know, I'm in a completely different industry, but you've gotta have negative feedback to prevent oscillation, and keep the load line balanced right down the middle. An antique engine, or an antique amplifier, it's not really all that different in theory.
You need to run the belt much tighter. The proper tension for a flat belt is 600 pounds of tension for every square inch of belt cross section. A good rule of thumb is to measure the belt length with a steel tape measure and then subtract 1/10" per foot of belt length. That will give you good tension.
I have seen saws set up similar to this which did not have the steel frame over the blade. As a suggestion, sharpening the saw blade and setting the teeth will go a long way to better operation of the saw. I agree with many that the belt is too loose. A sag in the top travel of the belt is necessary but you have way too much. Look up the videos of traction engines belted up to separators and other equipment. I also think you should run the belt over the pulley on the engine shaft instead of the flywheel. You won't get the saw speed as over the flywheel but with a sharp and set saw it will work better. I learned to fire on a 10 hp Case traction engine at the Agricultural Hall of Fame & National Center at Bonner Springs, KS in 1966.
Outstanding video! Thanks! I do have to say though that wearing gloves around a saw blade is a really bad idea. If one tooth of the blade barely catches the leather it will pull you into the blade. Same with long sleeves, rings, necklaces, long hair or shirt tails. Be careful sir. I am now a sub.
Wonderful video of a classic steam engine and boiler procedure! Only caution might be that there probably should have been a locomotive-style or screen type spark arrest on the smokestack of the boiler - given that the demonstration was in a wooded area...cheers, from Toronto
Technology that should recover when there is no longer petroleum, only way that world continues working, to be good that youths go not to forget this for a next future.
Wow was a wonderful movie with music and steam !!! of course it takes the license to turn on all the gimmick !!! congratulations to the driver were very interesting life minutes☺☺☺
TIGHTEN THE BELT OR TAKE A PIECE OUT WILL MAKE FOR AN INCREASE IN WORK RATE AND LESSEN THE BELT SLIP. NOTE HOW THE SAW BLADE SPEED DROPS BECAUSE OF THE SLACK BELT.
ein wunderschönes Männerspielzeug, alles ist vorhanden: Druckkessel zur Erzeugung von Dampf mit Holz und Kohle, eine Dampfmaschine und eine Kreissäge. a beautiful men's toy, everything is available: pressure boiler for the production of steam with wood and coal, a steam engine and a circular saw.
Loved this well produced video! Tell me, how much of the engine and boiler are original? A lot of the fittings don't look like they could be over 110 years old. And what is that other machine behind the saw do?
The boiler is from 1934. All of the fittings are period or as close to period appropriate as can be found today. The smoke stack and smoke hood are new as of 2015 and is ALL riveted following period practice. Look for a future video on the boiler. The engine is all original to me. See video #1 for the machine behind the engine.
Very nice engine and boiler. I also have a steam plant similar to yours in my back yard. I also use it to cut fire wood. I also make home made ice cream with it.
I really have no idea why this was in my "recommended" but it seems rather interesting to watch btw the connecting belt seems like very dangerous thing if it slips out of these wheels
My father was called Dr. of engines from collectors across the United States! He had over 350 antique hit and miss gas engines! Titans, Galloways, sandwich etc. 👍
Thank you for including the note about Dave Richards. It's great to see folks keeping the mechanical history alive.

FYI the Rites governor was also applied to the Fairbanks-Morse YH series of stationary diesel engines.
Video is very much clear and each step is shown while starting this queen...
When crosscutting, having one hand on each side of the blade will close the kerf and bind the saw. Use both hands on one side, or one hand and a push stick when the stock gets short.
Cheap worn crankshaft bearing fix is to cut up beer cans and place around the shaft. The aluminum last way longer than you would think.
I like RUclips because you get to see stuff like this ... from the other side of the world.

This is GREAT, cutting wood for the boiler and probably for a stove in the house. I am familiar with governor flyweights, seen those on engines at N.E. steam an wireless museum, love to see a 3 phase alternator with exciter as amps an volts are my thing. This is very impressive .
It's like the saw blade doesn't have enough set to the teeth.
Ah, the memories this video evoked. You might want to check the dish on the saw blade. It should "sing" when buzzing wood. Also the RPMs are a bit low. Or perhaps, get a larger diameter blade.
A little more TLC would go a long way. Very cool video. Thank you for sharing.
It is amazing that the drive belt manages such a power transmission despite the low tension.
The magic is derived from that industrial elixir called belt dressing. It adds just a hint of tackiness to the belt surface.
Someone finally showed the oiler working. Good stuff. A+ video....
Like other people have said “ sharpen the saw, engine won’t have to work as hard .
Saw twice as much wood !
Good video! Lovely machinery
Sweet setup you've got there , thanks for sharing it with us .
Its an old engine

thanks for the upload. An amazing engine, gosh I sure would love to have one to play with
Beautiful engine. I would love to have one of those in my yard... My neighbors on the other hand would probably not be thrilled.
I am so glad I don't have neighbors ! I could never live beside anyone... I have to have my own space... I would go into a deep depression without it..
I would keep it running 24/7
Live in a ghetto..
@Pennsylvania Mike
"An aging, lawn ornament, power boiler". Those are some pretty scary words.
I loved counting the many OH&S issues with this whole set up :) ;). A great sound and smell.
Snowflakes need not apply.
Love It!@@lineshaftrestorations7903

It’s better and more fun that way,it’s the only way, and as you are rebuilding ,you hear it running in your head!
I realise the valve slide is pitted and leaking to the exhaust port but also the bearings being shot on the crank are affecting the valve timing too..
That's a real jewel you have there!

PS if you sharpen the saw it will cut better and be safer to use.

Yes it would be but I have a few projects ahead of it.
Can't wait to hear how this sounds after the bearing knock is gone. Subscribed!

Thanks for the compliments. I am trying to tell a story that is both entertaining as well as informative with each of these videos.
... какая славная машина...
NOTHING,ABSOLUTELY NOTHING beats the sound of an old Rumley, Jewel or Baldwin.
Quite interesting to see the bearing shells bounce around like that ......
You have a lot of nice toys. I'm envious.
Sounds like the sawblade could use a sharpening......seems to be leaning a little heavy into that wood.....
I think it is really great to see that Brownell boiler in action, as it was made not far from where I live in Dayton Ohio. Hard to believe Dayton used to be such a center of heavy industry at one time, but it is true.

Even in its time, this is a very simple and low performance steam engine. Maybe not more than 3% of energy benefit.
This would be a cheap and simple version, for small farm jobs. Not for lumber industry or carpentry.
It should not be forgotten that 130 years earlier, James Watt had already invented, the steam condenser, multiple cylinders of double or triple expansion, and by 1830 Stephenson link gear and Walschaerts valve gear in 1865.
None of these technical advances is in this simple engine

Though not obvious in the video, the bearings were never dry. Not long after this video was posted, the engine went back into storage.
It's amazing how fucked up one of these magnificent machines can be and still run properly. Wonderful engineering.
I know, I'm in a completely different industry, but you've gotta have negative feedback to prevent oscillation, and keep the load line balanced right down the middle. An antique engine, or an antique amplifier, it's not really all that different in theory.
Like the "Just in Time" wood supply.... lol
Sharpen the saw all ready. Sharpen the saw all ready. Sharpen the saw all ready. Sharpen the saw all ready. :)
You need to run the belt much tighter. The proper tension for a flat belt is 600 pounds of tension for every square inch of belt cross section. A good rule of thumb is to measure the belt length with a steel tape measure and then subtract 1/10" per foot of belt length. That will give you good tension.
I have seen saws set up similar to this which did not have the steel frame over the blade. As a suggestion, sharpening the saw blade and setting the teeth will go a long way to better operation of the saw. I agree with many that the belt is too loose. A sag in the top travel of the belt is necessary but you have way too much. Look up the videos of traction engines belted up to separators and other equipment. I also think you should run the belt over the pulley on the engine shaft instead of the flywheel. You won't get the saw speed as over the flywheel but with a sharp and set saw it will work better.
I learned to fire on a 10 hp Case traction engine at the Agricultural Hall of Fame & National Center at Bonner Springs, KS in 1966.
Outstanding video! Thanks! I do have to say though that wearing gloves around a saw blade is a really bad idea. If one tooth of the blade barely catches the leather it will pull you into the blade. Same with long sleeves, rings, necklaces, long hair or shirt tails. Be careful sir. I am now a sub.
I love old American steam from small to giant Awesome piece of history enjoy.
That's pretty cool to watch the starting on the engine. I enjoyed that very. Thats pretty much the same engine they used on the locomotives isn't it.
In a general sense it's the same as a steam locomotive. Typically they don't hav governors. The engineer/driver performs that function.
From what I knew, I never knew that. Thanks for sharing that with me.
In june - " hey Ma, I'll at the barn cutting cord of fire wood, should be back about September, have supper on for me "
Wonderful video of a classic steam engine and boiler procedure! Only caution might be that there probably should have been a locomotive-style or screen type spark arrest on the smokestack of the boiler - given that the demonstration was in a wooded area...cheers, from Toronto
Fabulous! That saw scares me though. I'd do an upgrade on the work rest to preserve the fingers.
I wish I were your neighbor! Thanks so much.

Occasionally and with a recently sharpened blade I could almost cut as fast as a chin-saw.
You know it may help if you sharpen that saw and set the belt properly
