An amazing piece of machinery, seeing the pistons running so smoothly is just beautiful, though I have to say it seems a bit hard to fine down the throttle. Am glad that you two were able to bring it out for others to see and had a good space to run it.
Bonjour Bram, Lucky man to have been there to share this experience with you friend ! Just the perfect machine to avoid gas in a near future :+) And there is a great whistle too ! I would have like to be there to drive it... Perhaps one day... Amicalement, Raphaël
I wish I had the time to do such project but no this one is built by a man that isn`t any longer with us For me he was a master builder, such a fantastic job that he did.
@@MrBramMoos Fair enough I'm the same but more the fact I don't have the skills and knowledge and the machines to build one. She is a well made engine. You can tell that
@@MrBramMoos thanks, do you have to drive yours with the blower on? Mine does not seem to do well with anthricite so I run her with pinewood and hardwood..
Beautiful bit of machinery! Always a complete joy when it comes back alive.
I can`t agree more, it was a great feeling once she was running again.

We hope to show it more in the near future and for sure we will bring it to Medemblik next year, the third weekend in September.
probably touchy on the throttle because every thing is still new and tight , not broken in
Great job, beautifully made. Congratulations and thanks for sharing
Great video Bram. Quite a powerful machine
Thanks Geoff, the rest of the show will follow soon :)

Bonjour Raphaël, for sure if you come over one day I can let you have a go with it, no problemo :) Kind Regards Bram
Very nice! I have my plans set on buying a 4' burrel when i turn 21 (legal age to drive it on the road)
Sounds very good to me, good luck with it.
that thing looks fun to drive
Yes for sure it is fun to drive and we will drive it again soon at a model weekend in Holland.
Where can you get the plans for a similar built?
In Holland there is a live steam group who are publishing these drawings I think. The name is Stoom groep Holland.
I live in Ipswich and am about 5 mins drive from Ransome rd industrial estate where they used to be.
Nice to be so close to where they were built, is there anything axcept for the road name left of the factory?
@@MrBramMoos I’ll have a look but I doubt it. If there is anything I’ll take some photos.
@@MattF12765 That would be very nice, a pitty that all this history is gone.
I'm looking for good plans to build a stem engine like this, what are the estimated power figures from this model? It is absolutely gorgeous!!
I know that here are drawings around for this model. Don`t know about power figures but you can pull three adults with this engine. :)
Lovely engine. Did you build her yourself?
I wish I had the time to do such project but no this one is built by a man that isn`t any longer with us For me he was a master builder, such a fantastic job that he did.

@@MrBramMoos what coal do you use for this engine?
@@mattseymour8637 We are using antrasiet as coal and it works very well with this engine.
@@MrBramMoos great choice. Takes some getting going but burns hot. Is that the Welsh anthracite?
this is cool, i have a 2 inch allchin
I have watched the video, a very nice engine
@@MrBramMoos thanks, do you have to drive yours with the blower on? Mine does not seem to do well with anthricite so I run her with pinewood and hardwood..
@@MrBramMoos thats a nice jefferies, did you build it or find it second hand from someone may i ask ?
@@charleskendall5972 It was traded in second hand and given to a friend :)
I'm building one of these in 6" scale. I have a full set of drawings and patterns.
Sounds good, will be a lot of work but as you can see it is worth to do it. Keep them building.
Die meneer op de bok kan het best voor z'n verjaardag een nieuwe fluit vragen. Maar voor de rest ZO KNAP GEMAAKT en bereden!!
Helemaal mee eens Ger, en we moeten deze machine nog een klein beetje beter leren kennen.:)
