My only complaint about this video is that it was over too soon :) Seemed like 4 minutes instead of 24. And that's an awesome build. I've only recently discovered your channel, and I've been bingeing on it. Interesting projects, fantastic presentation, and very engaging.
Been binge watching for a few weeks now, interjected with memories of my Dad's fitting turning tool making shop. And feeling all inspired and with a gap that needed filling I put in my order last week for a 300mm x 700mm Lathe/mill combo from a major machine shop in my state ... plus jigs and tooling... Yeah, memories of Dad and his substantial machining shop have taken on a whole new meaning set.
Yay. Congrats! Looking forward to it running on steam. That sound of it running is so soothing, I feel like a long video of it just running would be lovely. Think of it like the machinists version of a burning log video. Machinists ASMR or a sleeping aid.
That colour is perfect, and it looks so much better with the new hardware, totally worth the time it undoubtedly took despite you down-playing that bit :) Its nice to see such a large engine being made on "hobby" tools, I've enjoyed watching this whole series, trials and tribulations too. Well done.
Quinn - Bravo on completing this fascinating project! It's great to see your painstaking attention to detail pay off with such a beautiful, and beautifully-operating machine. It will be great to see it run under live steam!
JFTYA (just for the RUclips Algorithm): Many congrats for the final touches on the beautiful engine! As much as I would love to this for myself, I will likely never have the opportunity, so thank YOU for bringing us along side you on your journey!
It is beautiful and it runs like a fine watch! You can be very proud of your skills in building this fine engine. I’m looking forward to see it running on steam. Thanks for taking us along on this journey.
Hooray! If there's an even bigger boiler in the works I'm hoping for a classic horizontal firetube boiler, or a miniature three-drum boiler. But a watertube boiler would be cool too!
In the UK a major maker of packing and gasket in was/ is James Walker who made Lion brand packing. The factory was right by the railway and as a child I would see the sign “ Lion Packing” I would puzzle as to why Woking should have a factory packing lions. Ah, the joys of youth!
11:20 if you have or know somebody with a lasercutter,they can make nice seals also.Since i have one i do lots of my seals for engines,oilpans etc myself.For easy copying them i just lay the old gasket or the part itself(if possible) on the scanner ,get the scan into the lasersoftware and get it cutted.Saves me lots of time.And reproducing them when already saved is just a mouseclick away.
I spent 25 years working on steam and hot water systems including, and especially, maintenance. Packing nuts are a pretty loose fit and the stems are polished. Otherwise they tear up the packing pretty fast. Remember that it's the packing that provides the seal not the packing nut. The packing nut only compresses the packing for a better seal. So your solution was the correct way to go. There are only 2 things that I'd suggest. Number one is, when installing the packing, cut the ends at 45 degrees or less where they meet instead of 90 degrees. I always shot for about 30 degrees. It provides a better seal that way. Second, use some silicone grease on the stems where they interact with the packing. It's not strictly necessary but it helps with smoother operation, helps prevent corrosion on the stems, and extends the life of the packing. Otherwise, great job as always Quin and thank you for sharing the good, the bad, and the ugly!! I always learn something new. Sprocket's looking at me funny again! It's freaking me out!! STOP IT!!!
Quinn , To say you do good work is and understatement, Tip for you if you punch a little hole in the can of POR 15 , drain off what you need for a small project put a screw with a little gasket in the hole the POR 15 Has a much longer shelf life. I believe the Theory is if you don't remove the lid the integrity of the factory sealing lasts much longer .. I have thrown out a number of hard cans of POR 15 its worth a shot ??? Pete M
Quinn, at 7:40 a nice easy solution is with a wood or plastic v-block to tame the floppiness for a quick cut. Beautiful paint job, and some fine nachune and assembly work. Very nicely done, cheers!
I stumbled upon this today from another channel, and was instantly hooked! I was thinking that it felt like watching Bob Ross build a steam engine, when low and behold I hit the "Happy Little Trees interlude". Looks like I have some wonderful catching up to do. If you didn't already have a Tasmanian subscriber, you do now!
You've made a beautiful engine! I envision you creating a steam engine/leather belt-driven cat carousel🎠. A Catrousel. Ya know, for summers in the yard.
Outstanding success Quinn, I am absolutely pleased for you. All that time and effort along with some “my brain hurts” moments and having to find some work arounds for some items, that’s what makes your channel so interesting. You show people that small difficulties need not be big ones. I am a retired Marine Engineer, trained on steam and sailed on steam ships for many years before having to transfer over to motor ships. My boss always told me, its not a cock up if you can find a way to rectify any mistakes made. I think you were a little challenged with this build but as always, you managed to pull it off with flying colours. You have come a long way since your humble beginnings, and I am proud to be one of your Patron’s. I hope whatever you are considering regarding a run-on steam works out because that is the proof in itself as it is harder to get a steam engine running on steam compared to compressed air. I have confidence in your ability and am so looking forward to seeing this engine run on steam. Nice one Quinn, stay safe and stay creative. Kind regards from England UK.
If you ever re-arrange the shop, put the mill left of lathe in line with the head stock. You can mount a steady rest on mill bed to support long pieces of stock in the lathe. Warning thread washer.. don't get it. Cut rings at 15-45 degree angle for total seal. Absolutely MAGNIFICENT build!!! Loved following the series!
You are truly a fantastic engineer, you raise the bar time after time. When I’m building it makes me think, is what I’m doing the best I can do! Keep up the amazing work in 2023!
The sound is so cool one should have one in the house somewhere that just keeps on running. Add a whistle for variation and you got a nice sounding house.
Dear Quinn! First of all, sorry for my English, because I don't know the language well enough, I am forced to use Google translator. I really like what you show in your films. Once upon a time - decades ago - my dream was to do the things you do. I even tried. However, they were far from the beautiful things you do. Unfortunately, in my country, I did not have access to the materials, tools and machine tools you have. Thanks Quinn! You do a beautiful job and bring people a lot of joy
And this is why I don't make steam engines - I wouldn't ever want to turn the thing off! I love the sound of them and would want to find an excuse for something for it to be doing - running a clock, charging batteries, something. Great project and it runs, looks (and sounds) fabulous!
That’s beautiful! And I’ll fondly remember this video series as an machining Nuzlock challenge as half of the parts were too big for the machines that made them, yet you showed us all what’s possible with a bit of engineering creativity and a lot of commitment 😊😊
Yes. Perhaps a large boiler mounted on, well, I dunno, something with some wheels? Run a belt to drive the wheels? And perhaps the wheels could be on two, well, rails....
Excellent quality work. "Turn of the century" Industrial technology that shouldn't be forgotten. Too much fun. Well done and such a high level of machining skill.. Outstanding. May I comment on a comment; "Happy little steam engines". So good! (The big ones did big work!) .. This person is a rare example of a smart machinist/artist/builder/thinker/ cool person. I like her. Thanks so much for sharing. J. from Michigan 🫡🤠.
Very nice Quinn. I was a marine engineer (Stoker) in the RCN. Most of my career was operating and maintaining steam engines and steam turbines. I love your shop and your channel.
@@combatcurt there is no long word for tool making "Werkzeugbau" But the trades that make tools are called "Präzisionswerkzeugmechanikerhandwerker*innen"
FYI... I bought several rubber corks off of Amazon (sized correctly) that would fit in the back end of my Precision Matthews headstock. And drilled different size holes, centered in each of the corks, to facilitate extra-long stock sticking out and flopping in the breeze (I do a lot of cue shaft work). Might give that a try for a quick easy way to stop the flop.
What an awesome build! It sounds gorgeous, too. I'd love to see this engine run on live steam, but even more than that, I'd love to see it actually power something! After all, this was originally meant to be a working engine, not a model. Could you use it to power your lathe, perhaps? Or maybe another tool, like a bandsaw. That would be seriously cool.
As the fictional Colonel John ‘Hannibal’ Smith out of the A Team was prone to say, “I love it when a plan comes together!” Seriously awesome build there - I’m absolutely blown away by the sheer number of hours alone that you must have put into this engine. Thanks for bringing us all along on the ride!
This engine and your previous PM Research engine have single handedly gotten me interested in steam engines. I'd love to build one the day I get machine tools. Great series Quinn!
Love the engine, very nice. Big steam fanatic , was in the USN BT2 we had stick shift boilers. All manual M type DD-876, I'm also a Canuk . Great videos.
Great to see it running nicely at the end. Good work on the fine fettlin'. Maybe your next project should be making a Boiler more than big enough to power all your engine's at the same time.
I am so impressed with your patience and perseverance in getting the thing to run properly. It is a beautiful piece of machining/engineering. Thanks for sharing.
Elegant and lovely! When you talked near the end about running it with live steam, the thought that popped into my head was, 'How cool would it be to actually use it to run a tool?' My son has teased the idea of using a single motor and a system of leather belts to run all the machines in our shop. That will absolutely never happen (I have seven stationary motorized machines), but imagining it is fun. Contemplating doing it with steam is both cool and terrifying; a nice combination. You've hooked me on model steam engines and I'll be watching this entire series of videos (I only started with last week's).
Thank you Quinn!!!I enjoy watching you work, I spent close to 45 years as a master tech (ASE as well as several manufactors certified) and I too made mistakes! I worked with steam while serving in the Navy, so watching you figure out the beast way to complete the work is very enjoyable
We're probably saying the same thing, but my guess was the finish on the rod caused drag (friction) on the nut. The more it ran the more heat / expansion of rod / drag. What a fun project and beautiful work! Thank you for sharing!
Congratulations, Quinn! That is a beautiful machine and I had a lot of fun watching you make it. I hope to see it run on live steam because, well, as you said..it's not a real steam engine otherwise. i'd also love to see you actually drive something with this. Dunno what would be proper, but it'd be cool to see it do work. Thank you for all your wonderful content and giving me something to look forward to on Saturdays.
Amazing fine work Lady...Thanks you.....l grew up in the late 1940's and my Dad owned a very big Tannery and about 450 employees.....lt was all ran by steam engines and some large live Steam engines were two stories high...lt was a wonderful place to grow up ans learning about Steam power... Shoe🇺🇸
Congrats! Great to see it running, and completing a bigger engine is the perfect excuse to start building a bigger boiler. Just don't make it too big for this engine or you'll just have to make an even bigger engine after that to really test that boiler and before you know it, it's steam power all the way down!
Yes ma'am, oil gets everywhere. Wanna see my shirt after this weekend operating a Case traction engine? I can't wait to get my little vertical plumbed and operating the line shaft in the shop.

Listening to the engine run.
Is relaxing , like listening to water running
That engine runs so sweetly. I would love to see a bicycle powered by one of your steam engines 😊
That red does go absolutely fantastic with the brass shroud. Its like peak Victorian, I love it!
Sounds sweet. Gotta hear it running under a serious load though. That's when you hear the big "CHUFF CHUFF".
Yay. Congrats!
Looking forward to it running on steam. That sound of it running is so soothing, I feel like a long video of it just running would be lovely. Think of it like the machinists version of a burning log video.
Machinists ASMR or a sleeping aid.
reciprocating therapy done really slowly....I can feel my eyelids getting heavier.😴😴
My wife listens to shower or fan noises on loop to sleep. I can see myself napping to steam power lol
I'd listen to that
This has to be the best rendition of this kit ever made! Great accuracy and attention to detail!
A Bob Ross moment brought to you by Blondihacks and the "Happy Little Trees Interlude". Nice paint job!
Come to the next Steam O Rama show and I'll give you all the live steam you could ever want. Awesome build Miss Hacks.
Mr Crispin, they don't make people like that any more, An excellent channel

Really beautiful. You can be proud. I have just watched the whole build again. Your presentation is great and I learn so much watching you. Thanks
Thanks indeed, here is some extra on top of my Patreon pledge!
I love that paint color. If there's a flaw in the engine that causes it to explode the color hides the blood stains...
🙂
Hooray! If there's an even bigger boiler in the works I'm hoping for a classic horizontal firetube boiler, or a miniature three-drum boiler. But a watertube boiler would be cool too!

All of the glorious clapping and delight. You have evolved as an educator and machinist and I am so grateful. It is a gorgeous machine.

5x bigger and power a treadle lathe, or generator, that'd be nifty.
Amazing, it has to have the best fit and finish of any I've seen on youtube.
The big steam engine turned out great Quinn. Thanks for sharing your build, looking forward the next one.
A friend of mine that makes a lot of steam engines uses old espresso machines as steam generators. They are cheap, portable and easy to hook up.
Surprising what a difference MG Maroon paint makes,lovely job Quinn.👍👍
Aaaay grats! Love it!! Super cool to see it all together. For sure we gotta see it with some real steam!!
awesome, absolutely loved this and the last engine build. Cant wait to see the next series
Great job, and a lovely colour. If it ticks over on 5 psi of air, you could probably run it from a kettle!
Nice work, Quinn. And it sounds like music.
We're probably saying the same thing, but my guess was the finish on the rod caused drag (friction) on the nut. The more it ran the more heat / expansion of rod / drag. What a fun project and beautiful work! Thank you for sharing!
