    My parents bought a 1910 home from its original owner in 1955 which came with this grinder. I was awakened by the grinding sound most mornings (thanks mom!) I now do the grinding myself partially awake... I landed here looking for cleaning tips as I think the burrs might be hanging onto grinds longer than they might. Enjoyed your dissection so I know what to expect. ☕

    Just finished this last one when I got home from church today. Started pretty late last night when I found your channel. It's amazing what you were able to do with this, especially considering how it looked on that first video. And figuring out all that apparatus/governor - very impressive. I enjoyed this series very much. Thanks for sharing it and congratulations.

    My Dad had one of these when he ran a barbeque pit. I was only about 4 years old and was never around when he used it. But I remember it well because it looked so big to me then - and that color was unusual. I'm 62 now, so it's been a few years. It must have been a good unit as they cut a lot of hickory to fire a large pit in southern Kentucky.

    My rule is 1-1/2 to 2 turns off the seat on the main carb jet as a beginning setting. There is a cheap tool from all the T suppliers that sets the timer location. It saves a lot of guesswork. Nice job. Very thorough.

    I just found your series on the Model T power unit. It is great. I thought you might like to know that the long spark you found is for a Maytag engine. They often have 2 or more electrodes. That governor is really neat. I'm watching now to see it run.

    • @benstown7209
      @benstown7209 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you are talking about the wood handle on the crank arm, you will have to carefully grind or file off the mushroomed part of the bolt/rivet and then you can drive out the long rivet. When you reassemble you just peen over the end to hold it in place.

    i don't know about anyone else, but i would've liked seeing more of the cleaning up of parts, even if it were "sped up". things like cleaning the bore of the engine, sandblasting and even having the piston in a sonic bath seems almost like a "must have" in other channel and watching grit, grime and rust peel off has a strangely satisfying feel to it. But i suppose that would take up a lot more of your time in editing this little gem of a video. And to be honest, i'm learning more about the actual engine with the narration of your video, so i can take that as a trade-off.

      @@benstown7209 a 12-15 minute video is not "too long", heck i can sit through hour-long ones if i get to see enough "cleaning" and fixing stuff, so your 30min fits neatly in there. You may want to consider a timelapse of the whole restoration after its done.
