    Just when I was going to call it good on watching RUclips, Jonathan's video pops up in my notifications...I said, "Well, this oughta be good." And it was. You might not have wanted both pieces, Jonathan, but I'm sure they are better off with you than with a scrapyard.

    Jonathan, we need a proper round-up of all your latest endeavors ...we get glimpses through Virge and Delray's video gave a pretty good (wide angle view) idea of the extent of things,but I for one miss your regular update videos on either the engines,cars or wreckers😟

    @trimmerman1 3 месяца назад +2

    I thought you were having another war with Y-tube or something. Glad to see you are still at it. Perhaps that engine was made that way so it didn't need a large pit. It should sit on a base of fairly modest height without any pit. interesting.

    • @dougscott8161
      @dougscott8161 3 месяца назад +1

      I was thinking that was the change that would be needed to make the engine portable for use as an automobile power plant.

    Nas! REAL NAS!!! 😆👍🏻😋 A Canuk steam engine! Def unusual! 😋 Hope all is well, Jonathan! I am rewiring our shop after a fire we had in 2021. Doing it when you are incomplete paraplegic and in a wheelchair with little function is a monumental task, but I am getting it done! Got the power on and it is coming along well! Just rebuilt 4 of the now antique 1973 ABOLOTE brand high bay mercury vapor 400 watt lights-4 had working ballasts, 4 were cooked out of 8 units, and all the original oil filled 17.5 uF capacitors that were paralleled for 35 uF were all popped. I had one 35 uF 325 volt and several 24 and 10 uF caps, 480 and 400 volt respectively on hand, one 24 and one 10 gave me 34 uF, one short, but good enough, so 3 got these, one got the single 35 uF, and with the still OK ballasts, they all work great once again! Cleaned the soot and mess off the housing and painted the units, and ready to go back in service! Awesome save! The other 4 will be rebuilt as well, for elsewhere. Also doing 300 watt equivalent LED bulbs in some vintage DUAL brand green and white RLM dome fixtures to allow using either/or or combination of both, so will be nice! So I got my hands full too! Cheers Jonathan!! 👍🏻👌😋

    Have a Robb engine very similar to this one. These were made in Amherst, Nova Scotia. Sawyers loved these engines as they were very quick on the governor. You can see mine, search 10 x 10 Robb steam engine. It was my great grandfather’s mill engine and has been in the family since 1917.

    Johnathan I believe you've almost got enough interest in these old chunks of cast iron to consider starting yourself a real collection of substantial account if you're not real careful.
    Could be that one day you'll have the place covered in various types of buildings to cover the majority of them too.
    Be kinda like the place not far from your area that the gentleman had variety of heavy equipment, and barns full of steam pieces to cover the time period it was main power to drive the industrial age.
    Even toys among other things if memory serves, but it's been number of years since I recall you're visit to the place.
    More power to you, and I know the Mrs. backs you 125%.
    So I'd say you've got the best of things going if you ask me.
    May your quest be fruitful, and one day they'll have you in the books of the man who saved important part of our country's history, and honestly I'd be correct in saying the better part of world history as one way or another it truly did effect the world on a whole.
    Take care until you once more give us a peak into the progression of things you're up to.

    Hi, Jonathan, It's good to see you are still around and kickin', that Robb Armstrong Engine looks to be just the thing for your Steam Powered Hot Rod! Now don't lie to me, I know you want to do it. Besides, I think along the same lines you do, but at eighty years old , I no longer have the energy or finances to do this crazy stuff. God Bless and stay safe. 💯💥❤👍
