I'm glad you changed the base for the engine it looked messy with all the leads showing the only thing I'd change would be USB charging for the batteries still excellent little project
It's a beautiful engine, the base mod is perfect. I replaced all the pipes with copper pipe, and propper brass fittings to get rid of the ugly blue Pne fittings. The engine as supplied is great, but modification is the fun of the engine. Great Video AJ :)
I'll bet that unit would be a treat in a house with tall ceilings and still air! That's a nice alternative for those without the space nor funds to keep the full sized engines.
Absolutely beautiful. I don't know why, but the Chinese have a nasty habit of fitting things the wrong way round! In this case the engines Flywheel. If you look at the curved spokes of Any stationary engine, like the Blackstones for example- the curved spokes of the flywheel ALWAYS are fitted so the spokes chop into the air the opposite way round!
Really ought to re-do the connections to the switch - without the wires being looped through the hole in the tabs, the vibration from the engine will likely cause the solder joint to eventually break.
@AJRestoration Yes, I had to look around to find one, and it did take a long time, but it was well worth the wait, especially for that price, I dropped lucky I was a bit miffed about two years ago when I found out that one of my neighbours had taken 3 stationery engine's to the scrap yard just a few day's before I had spoke to him and all of them were in working order what a great shame
Drop a proper pulley on it and drive a lineshaft of pulleys, to power Wilesco stationery mechanical candy. Sawing wood mobile, pumping well water mechanical all minds of fun stuff. Wilesco model steam.
Seems to run pretty good but I would never accept a cast wheel that is crooked and wobbling like that. Totally unacceptable. Looks like whoever milled it was drunk as a skunk
Vackert men en del finns att förbättra,❤ men jag behöver inga miniatyrmotorer, jag har riktiga äkta stora flera stycken tändkulemoterer ca 12-15 st men den här lilla är frän👍
unboxing vids are such garbage, If you want to show off a model; the contents of the box, JUST GET ON WITH IT!! Who really cares about the way something is packaged and unpackaged.

I agree its much better with all the wires tucked away.
Neat little machine! Nice job on the box to hide all the components, it looks great!
I'm glad you like it!

Yes and these mill engines are really hard to find, and transport.
But it cant do a single job of work.
@@thra5herxb12snobody uses engines for work anyway, the electric motor is far superior, but we enjoy looking at these engines
@@thra5herxb12s It's a model!

Nice little engine. I really like the box you made to keep all the ignition parts in order.
Glad you like it, the box does look better.

One ice cube keeps her cool for a while 😂
A really long while haha.
@AJRestoration, I'm interested in buying this engine! What is the diameter of this engine flywheel? Thanks.
Ill get back to you, sorry I missed your comment.
deserves to be rebuilt tho. Some of the factory workers were actually really in lack of attention. even those pipings aren't lined up
I've just looked at the price of these models, and that's expensive it only cost me £180.00 for a real one that's roughly 240 us dollars
Where I am from the real thing roughly costs 2600 US dollars. Its really damn expensive, that is IF you can find one for sale.
@AJRestoration Yes, I had to look around to find one, and it did take a long time, but it was well worth the wait, especially for that price, I dropped lucky I was a bit miffed about two years ago when I found out that one of my neighbours had taken 3 stationery engine's to the scrap yard just a few day's before I had spoke to him and all of them were in working order what a great shame
Congrats on 100k brother, amazing!!!
Thank you so much buddy, was a lot of work haha 😀

Wilesco model steam.
Great engine and great sound , almost like a Lanz Bulldog !
Spend $650 and get a wobbly flywheel and agressive cams that make a horrible noise - I don't think so!
Very nice engine.. Thx for sharing A.J.
Thanks for watching!
Nice little project kit. 👍
It sure is, I had a bunch of fun with it!

Your videos integrate ASMR into them. Enjoy it.
That's the plan! Glad you enjoy it!
Looks like the flywheel has a little runout. Otherwise nice.

Very nice
Thanks buddy!
That's cool!
Does it have enough power to drive a mini pump jack?
Cute, but $700??!!
Amazing little invention. I'm not sure how you could put it to use but it does make pretty smoke rings! 😂
It seems you can make a little generator from it, other that that its purely a toy. I love the smoke rings haha.
What component is actually doing the loud clacking noise?
That is the cam actuating on the small roller bearings on the valve rockers, the cam has a agressive pitch causing the clacking noise.
Hi love the little engine. Where did you find it .thanks

Thank you very much!
Is the piston water cooled. Is that what the metal hose on the bottom is for and the top one feeds back to the water holder at the back?
Yes the piston is water cooled. It has a small water pump for the coolant
Looks like the contents of the shipping box settled. Kinda like potato chips. For the minor assembly required, it could hardly be called a kit.
Looks a stylish and interesting engine at first glance, but the cross axis gears are out of line and the flywheel is either loose or poorly machined.
Lots of room for improvement that flywheel would be on my lathe immediately and some work on the wiring layout and coolant lines.
If I had a lathe I would also give it some love.
Sounds like it's running pretty good but what's causing the the big wheel wobble is it a bad casting or is it a bent crankshaft
The flywheel is not perfectly balanced.

Great 👍👍
Thank you 👍
O ja! Dat is handig als de elektriciteit in jou land kapot is
Absoluut!
Where can I get one in kit form?. Brian.
Sadly they dot sell it in kit form yet but here is the link to pre built.

Baie dankie Jan!
So how does it work?
Seriously. I don't see a source of heat as you would for, say, a classic Wilesco steam engine. But it seems to be putting out steam.
Its just an engine. Works like any other engine
@@dietznutz1 So it is an internal combustion engine running on what? Gasoline? Alcohol?
@frederickwilt5541 petrol with two stroke oil, it's just a different shape than other more conventional engines
Watch your fingers
❤

were can i buy one
Doesn’t look like it needs restoration.
Lot of mechanical noise, is it the water pump ?
Boleh kirim mesinnya ke sini mister. Pengen punya juga saya.
Кайф ASMR👍🏻
Shame to that gasoline and not diesel
Batteries? No!
Too much aluminum.

It is a way of showing people what to expect when buying this model. It is part of the experience.
Is anyone else tired of seeing these unboxings
Nope
then dont watch them
@@lucadoemarExactly
Nope
Rumor has it there are other TH-cam channels.
👍👍👍
