And given the relative decent shape of the cast iron, that piece may have not been in the river that long. It was likely stolen, stripped of any copper/brass/bronze and dumped in the river to cover it up. Scrap metal theft has been a big issue here for about a decade, a byproduct of meth addiction.

The US company "PM Research" make a very nice set of castings to build an engine about 1/2 the size of this one (it is 19 inches tall completed) and is rated at a true 1/4 hp.
Sure looks like it. We don't always know how long the production time is for a given video. Apparently, Hand Tool Rescue has had a longer production time so far. Looks like a cool project.
I really appreciate how little you use body filler when restoring things. I was a little sad when i say you using it on this project, but then I thought about how pitted it probably was from sitting in a river. Make good sense you used it this time.
One day, he's going to pull out something that we weren't meant to see from that vat of rust remover, like the head of the long lost 5th teletubby. Mark my words. Mark them I say!
A classic "Bottle" engine. The lower end looks like a bottle. Not sure about being from the 20's, more likely from 1895~1905. Also, note the thrust bearing on one end of crankshaft; could be used marine(?).
Yes, a very nice bottle engine. Given it does not appear to have a maker's plate or name cast into it anywhere, I assume it is VERY old. However, I think it must have had some work done on it in the past as there are hexagonal nuts on it, and truly old engines would have used the more primitive (hand made) square nuts (and bolt heads). I think it was made to drive machinery rather than a boat as it does not have reversing gear (typically Stephenson's), with which a marine engine would have been fitted.
@@elrond12eleven Well, I have two vertical engines. One 9X12 (1895) w/ no thrust bearing, and one 4X7 (189?) marine w/ a thrust bearing. Could be true, but I've not seen many non marine engines w/ them.
@@paulcampbell5202 12:30 when he takes the screw out of what I assume is a weird piston head, you can see a square nut, so you're totally on the money.
@@paulcampbell5202 The nuts were never hand made - the earlier Whitworth nuts were machined - 5/8 from 1” square stock and 1/2” from 1” round stock (giving a 0.707” face to face dimension). Hex heads came during WW1 to save metal and later they dropped one size as a further metal saving measure.

You commented on the asbestos and it reminded me of an experience where I worked. Fire inspector asked me to post a sign at a basement doorway entry alerting any contractors or employees to the presence of asbestos containing materials (ACM) in that space. The sign disappeared almost immediately. I had a good idea who the culprit was (a VP) and asked him about it. He said he removed it because it might scare contractors or employees who need to go down there.

I love steam engines. Years ago(in the 50's - 60's) we had an Annual Threshers Reunion. Old steam engines from many states all came together to have a fun filled week. This was in Northern Illinois, USA. I think they still have the reunion going to this day. Our church had a huge covered wooden building where we cooked and sold fried chicken dinners. They were awesome. Every day people were lined up waiting patiently to get in for their turn for a delicious meal. We also had the 4-H fair where kids all brought their animals for judging and all hoping for the blue ribbon. Good old memories.

Given that it was found in a river I'm surprised that it wasn't just one solid lump of rust! Maybe it was down in the mud at the bottom and that formed an anaerobic environment protecting the metal?
HTR: "Why do I do this to myself?" Literally everyone else ever: Because you love it, and better yet, WE love it." On a different note... wtf was that thing you removed that double thread side bolt with? I've never seen anything like that before in my life!
I was a little worried about the direction of force (working to also bend rather than just turn the part) because of how far it lifted the leaver. Wouldn't it be significantly better if the stud remover was shaped more like a large nut so there was minimal bend forces, and only rotational and shear forces applied?
Oh my god, I haven't heard that sound for about 20 years now! I worked at Best Buy as a merchandiser when I was a teenager and I'll ALWAYS recognize the sound of a Big Joe platform being raised!
I don’t know if Eric has a significant other but if I were them I’d be so tempted to throw some random nut bolts and other junk into those evaporust baskets, with the other bits
I think his SO is featured in the flame thrower restoration video. Her line is "I'm going to kill him!" She says this after witnessing him testing out his Little Giant flame thrower.
I like the comedy you insert in your vids. It breaks it up and gives me a chance to say "my God, I'm glad I don't have to do this s^*t anymore". Love your channel. Signed, another 99% perfectionist in fixing something.

It’s basically exactly the same as a Stuart 10V… only 5 times as big in all dimensions, so probably 25 times as powerful?
As a native Kansan, it's good to see the long tradition of putting moving parts back together with various types of wire, usually baling wire.
Would have loved for him to inspect the wire, give it a rub with some wire wool, and remake a new wire out of bronze
And given the relative decent shape of the cast iron, that piece may have not been in the river that long. It was likely stolen, stripped of any copper/brass/bronze and dumped in the river to cover it up. Scrap metal theft has been a big issue here for about a decade, a byproduct of meth addiction.

Best viewing material while working night shift. Only wish I had found this sooner! Bring on #2
Очень ждал нового выпуска! Спасибо за твоё творчество!
один нюанс, у него есть специальный девайс для выкручивания шпилек, это отличная вещь, только двумя гайками проще, быстрее и дешевле! А так топ контент, как и всегда!
Взаимно
I think I got mesothelioma just watching the video! Great work as always, your patience is legendary.
That's honestly not in that bad of condition considering. Looking forward to the next part!
(Also, seems like your lathe needs a brake added...)
If anyone sees this and knows where to get a brake for old Logan's, tell us lol
Glad I stumbled onto your channel! Am spellbound, waiting for the intermission to end!
I only use premium bailing wire to hold my steam engine together.
😄 This guy makes me laugh each time I watch. He puts such a funny face.👍 I also like his choice of objects to be restored. Thanks
Given that it was found in a river I'm surprised that it wasn't just one solid lump of rust! Maybe it was down in the mud at the bottom and that formed an anaerobic environment protecting the metal?
It was the river in flint Michigan, it removed all the rust
@@crackedemerald4930 If it had soaked in Flint water the pits would have been filled in with lead.
@@1978garfield the babbitt bearings however would've been in perfect shape
Your sand blasting entry was EPIC. I thought I was watching an action movie. I just had to squint my eyes. lol.
HTR: "Why do I do this to myself?"
Literally everyone else ever: Because you love it, and better yet, WE love it."
On a different note... wtf was that thing you removed that double thread side bolt with? I've never seen anything like that before in my life!
stud remover.
Stud remover, also good for exhaust studs.
@@broncobum I never knew one existed but now I have to have one! That will definitely save me from boogering things up with Vise Grips.
came here to essentially say the same thing, "Why? Because it's FUN!"
I was a little worried about the direction of force (working to also bend rather than just turn the part) because of how far it lifted the leaver.
Wouldn't it be significantly better if the stud remover was shaped more like a large nut so there was minimal bend forces, and only rotational and shear forces applied?
Dude. That stud removal tool is the bees knees, I have one that functions similarly to a drill chuck but man I want that thing!!
15:00😂
You absolute tease
I sure didn't expect to see you here lol
You are the DaVinci of restorations ! Fantastic work and funny too.
Oh my god, I haven't heard that sound for about 20 years now! I worked at Best Buy as a merchandiser when I was a teenager and I'll ALWAYS recognize the sound of a Big Joe platform being raised!
I really like that there is no annoying narration… kudos
Why was Evaporust not in the intro for something that had literally been at the bottom of a lake?
Indeed! Of all the restorations that need Evaporust as a sponser...alas.
I am always in awe of the fantastically strange items you find to restore and the amazing results in the end. Keep up the great work!
you can almost hear the sigh of pain at 18.05 when he realized.......
You have the most amazing luck with rusted fasteners.
I don’t know if Eric has a significant other but if I were them I’d be so tempted to throw some random nut bolts and other junk into those evaporust baskets, with the other bits
v funny
I think his SO is featured in the flame thrower restoration video.
Her line is "I'm going to kill him!"
She says this after witnessing him testing out his Little Giant flame thrower.
@@1978garfield many thanks I may have subscribed after that so will search for it now
@@1978garfield you were correct thanks for that,
well its very obvious to me that you do THAT to yourself because you love us and we love what you do!
Ждём вторую часть!.
Oh my, I'm amazed at how modern those parts look; that's almost like working on my old Mazda, except HTR has to deal with less rust!
"only small amounts of filler" - I want you to be my bartender.
Wouldn't mind having him as a soda jerk
Never a dull moment in this shop. I enjoy every upload.
If your lathe doesn't sound like the sound of a million hellspawn demons being thrown in a garbage disposal is it really a lathe? 🤔
My Jet 1336PBD does. Wire rope lube slings off, Impact brand grease slings off.
I like the way he is working on that old stuff - and how he is making the vids. Great job.
Забавно он пытается везде использовать свой НЕ функциональный и НЕ удобный ключ.😁
I like the comedy you insert in your vids. It breaks it up and gives me a chance to say "my God, I'm glad I don't have to do this s^*t anymore". Love your channel. Signed, another 99% perfectionist in fixing something.
That asbestos makes my lungs hungry.
