    I played with a model steam engine *unsupervised*, much younger than 14 or 16. But that was back in the 60's.
    I also got a few shocks off 240V train set until I learned to avoid those bare terminals.

    Thanks Mr Pete. If you need denatured alcohol, go to most any gas station or convenience store that sells gas and look for an additive call "Heat" in a yellow bottle with a long skinny neck. It is high grade alcohol that does not stink like denatured alcohol. Plus it's in a covenant size and easier to dispense.

    When I was in high school fifty-five years ago, a friend and I who were good students had such a good relationship with the science faculty that they would let us work on experiments unsupervised it the science prep area after school. If we weren't done by five o'clock they'd say "Well, lock up when you're done," and leave! One time we were playing with his toy steam engine. We had six Bunsen burners under it, and we may have bypassed the governor. The boiler was enveloped in blue flame. A strobe light showed it at 6000 rpm, and it was the only time the overpressure valve ever blew. We were probably lucky not to suffer a catastrophe.

    I do love steam engines. I have been watching Keith Appleton's model engineering channel for years. They are absolutely fascinating. Real steam trains are even better, but i have refused to indulge myself at any level, because I can't afford another hobby.
    I also noticed the flame under the boiler is very yellow, it should be blue. I suspect that part of the soot is because there isn't enough air getting to the fuel. Maybe pulling the burner tray out a bit could help. At first I thought the flywheel might be causing turbulence because it's really close to the burner vents, but it didn't seem to make any difference when you were playing with the reversing lever.
    As far as the employee in Wallmart, you have to remember he may be in paint today, pets last week, and household goods for 3 days after that. The Wallmart model just requires warm bodies who can look up stock numbers, and put things on the correct shelves. I would have started at ACE, because I know even my fiddly little store has everything, and the people actually know what it's for.

      I'm not sure about that. The valve timing didn't change, just the position of the piston in the bore. I think the only thing that could affect is how much the ports in the cylinder bore are covered up and that would have an effect in both directions.
      Could just be slop in the valve train or the eccentrics aren't quite right and it's timed to run better in one direction.
      Given it's mostly pre-assembled I can't imagine it was factory timed so it's probably just luck as to how well it runs in either direction :)

    Thanks, Mr Pete. I love small engines and have bought several. I love assembling models. After buying a few "quality" models seemed an enjoyable thing to do I struck a few issues with two brands that took the shine off. I've been buying from Stirling Kits, ex China, and have no issues with their delivery, but they cover several kit suppliers. All kits have been beautifully packed, no mistake. But several have had issues - like mis-aligned bolt holes that need the attention of a rat-tail file big time (!) to screw the damn bolts in. Shameless! Or tightening the piston big-ends and freezing the piston; or loosening the piston big-end and tightening the crankshaft bearings - frozen piston. DANG! More shameless! Or instruction diagrams/photos that are NOT very clear or relate to earlier iterations of the model. Or timing beIts that CANNOT stretch across the pulleys like in the RUclips how-to videos that easily achieved the move. I've 2 $600US models at the back of my cabinet that piss me off. I've found a kit-maker, from the same supplier, that I trust, sort of, since then. Odd, but checking RUclips for assembly tips nobody had any issues, assembly was sweet - that's why I bought. Trying to stay under the $600US mark, mind. My dollars are about half yours so you can imagine how crabby I am about the failed kits. I could supply the kit names that spun my wheels if anyone would like.

      First of all, I’m not sure if I have ever mentioned this in my videos. But I did teach special education, Shop classes. I had no training whatsoever and did not know what to expect. It was a real eye-opener. Once I became adjusted to it and reduced my expectations by 900%, I started to enjoy it. In fact, I had one class that I still regard as my all-time favorite class in over 40 years of teaching. The classes were small and you could get very close to the kids. Some of the boys were so much fun that I actually could not wait for the next day.
      Over the years, I have talked a great deal about what you are suggesting. In fact, I was doing Vlogs for a while, but they were temporary videos that were summarily trashed. But in those videos, I discussed some of the things that you are alluding to.

      @@mrpete222 After creating a program that actually worked. The thrust of administration was to teach cutting edge techniques to Tech Center students. When I arrived, my program kind of flew in the face of the main philosophy. I taught students with special needs to use tools they could pick up at yard and garage sales to make things of real value.
      They started by learning to cut a square line on a board with a hand saw. That progressed to building a wall on wheels that was drywalled, painted, trashed, repaired, stripped, replaced with pegboard, and sold. It was a stand up tool caddy that other teachers and the public wanted.
      During the process, the students ... some of them non-verbal ... made a cartoon of something they learned, even if it was just in pictures with stick figures. That turned into a story board. Then to the outline of a script. Then to video tape as a Bob Villa kind of This Old House instructional video.
      When the video was done, we'd bring in someone from, usually a general ed class, in and have them try to complete a task watching only the video supplied by the student.
      If they could perform the task, the student with special needs had completed the whole program. If their behavior was acceptable, they might be invited back the next semester/year to act as a teacher assistant and work on a project of their choosing along the way.
      I don't believe there was a student in the classes who couldn't get back his or her security deposit when it came time to leave a rental they might have dinged up while living there.
      We, my brilliant female assistant teacher, and I were very proud of what we did. With my retirement the program faded away. Why? Because there was no one with special education certification who could do what we did. Oh, and no one wanted to work that hard.
      The program was a Math and English/Language Arts class disguised as a shop and business class.
      Now, as time has passed, I would like to make a series of pictures and turn it into a presentation I can put on RUclips or a video of the same kind of stuff.
      I'll write later on what happened after I retired as I took what I did in class out into the real world. It worked, but then again, there are few people who want to teach such things and work that hard to bring people who have been trained as recipients instead of producers all their lives into a productive world.
      The real money is in warehousing children UNTIL THEY'RE 26! and collecting sympathy money from the public who think we're really doing something to help people.
      Anyway, It's good to find "another."

    If you need 91% alcohol, but can only find 70% alcohol, all is not lost. You see, any alcohol ((isopropyl, denatured, or rubbing) has a small amount of water in it. The good news is that salt, just regular table salt, dissolves in water, but not in alcohol. Add a teaspoon or two of table salt into the bottle of alcohol, close the lid tightly and shake the bottle vigorously to dissolve the salt. Keep shaking for a good couple of minutes to be sure the salt is all disolved. Pour the alcohol into a clean glass and let it sit for ten minutes or so to separate. After it sits for a few minutes, you will notice the alcohol has separated into two layers. One of the layers is salt water, the other is alcohol of a higher concentration than you originally started with. Decant off the salt water layer and you have your "higher octane" alcohol.
    Notge, this doe not work for ethyl alcohol (the kind you drink), so you folks thinking you can make your vodka or bourbon more potent, it won't work.

    They make gelled alcohol. Its usually available where they sell pellet stoves because they use it to get the pellets started. Not sure how it would work for this.

    Good afternoon MrPete. I have a 1940 Southbend 9" model B, with a 4' bed. Unfortunately I have nowhere to put it. Any advice on a place to sell it that would give me a fair price?

    What do you mean I wouldn't have any bottles like that. I use them regularly for holding solvents and such. Leave it to Walmart not to have something you make a special trip for. Not as bad as going to Menards for something they should have and they don't because they have to sell groceries now. I may have to look into something like this little engine. Am retiring in a month, and may run out of things to do in the next 20 years. Just saw a 10" Craftsman lathe in an online auction. No motor though. Current bid is $1
