What a great video, thank you for making this, I know I'm seven years too late but it is of great use to me. I'm sure there are others like me too, who are building a traction engine (In my case it is a 3 inch Allchin) I have no experience whatsoever in firing up and how to use it. Making the fire was extremely interesting for me.
thank you for sharing this ....watchin it fire gave me a rare anxiety... here in my town we have an old 18 century railway line from times of british rule.its just 2" gauge . i tried makin a railcart n i did..but i just powerd from small generator.. but this thing is a great idea... thanks again regards from India
Mr. Salsman; What exactly did you learn? Starting a fire and oiling bearings. Please explain to me what the hearth coal shovel and pipe proved? Drafting?
What an absolutely beautiful machine! Thank you good sir for having and maintaining the knowledge in the care and operation of such a wonderful example of engineering and craftsmanship. Thank you very much for sharing!
G'day a really terrific engine. It was great to see the whole firing up and raising steam thank you for sharing this video. One day after I have finished building my 5" gauge Super Simplex I would like to build a traction engine simply love the old things I have subscribed and look forward to watching you videos kind regards John Tasmania Australia
Thank you for the subscription john and we never built the engine but it's always been something I would like to do but we put a new boiler and firebox on her in 2012 so we have done a bit of work on her kind regards Tom.

You can really learn to appreciate how far technology has come. The people of this machine's age were much smarter. The owner's manual on cars nowadays says not to drink the windshield washer fluid..
Fantastic little engine you have. For a guy who doesn't know much, how often do you have to add oil to everything? Also, what is the purpose of making the smoke stack taller at start up and putting a cap on it later on?
I haven't worked with traction engines, but have worked on similar age petrol powered vehicles that have similar constructions (barring the steam vs petrol). Generally we have to oil certain things everytime we go for a run, and anything we don't oil everytime gets done pretty regularly (~ 2 months, considering we try to go out once a week). The reason for these machines needing lubricating so often is because they are typically designed with metal on metal bearings that need oil to prevent them wearing each other and their design (possibly because they didn't have as precise manufacturing as we do now) means that they lose oil quite quickly, particularly if left to stand.
yep oil up every time and the (smoke stack) is a extension chimney to draw the fire and the (cap) is a spark arrestor but yes oil is key when running an engine like this
I love this little engine. Serious questions. Are all the nuts, bolts, studs etc. all to the correct scale and did you have to make the replica Fosters plaques too. From a Lincolnshire lad who being raised on a farm in the WW2 period saw the real things working in the fields etc., my Dad on them. Biggest thrills of the day was being allowed to ride on them.
@@A4pacific3626 There was times when they had a big steam engine each side of a field with a very large drum of wire cable underneath the boiler area. A plough, large and duplicated so that it would plough both directions, connected in the centre. This was pulled in one direction, flipped over and pulled back the opposite direction. Very efficient in its day, large ploughs and virtually no wheel marks like todays giant machines leave. Some were coal fired but a few had paraffin fired boilers.KERROSINE .?. Dad let me ride on the plough seat sometimes, health and safety came later, but I am in my 80s so did survive .

Примерно 200 лет назад люди убедились в том , что использование давления пара решает все проблемы с энергетикой. А 200 лет назад не было ни станков, ни эл.сварки, ни подшипников качения, ни масел и много чего. Даже компьютеров не было. И тем не менее паровики неплохо работали. В наше время для глуши востребованы паровики 2-10 квт. Которые при массовом производстве будут дешевле ДВС. Но...нефтяникам и электросбытчикам это невыгодно, а у министров другие заботы. Следовательно, спасение утопающих -дело рук самих утопающих. Удачи утопающим!
*+Степан Яблонский* У нас в этой глуши слишком мало народу для спроса на паровые двигатели. Даже в советском союзе от этой идеи отказались в итоге. Если уж так приспичило ездить по глуши на дровах - газогенератор в помощь.
great video and an amazing traction engine. I'm an aspiring live steamer myself, and I'm curious about the natural draft exercise you did at the beginning. I've seen dozens of steaming, and even had my hand in a few, but I've never seen this done. May this curious youngster trouble you for an answer?
Always wait about 10 seconds when starting my vehicles, watching all the gauges before putting it in gear, many people don't even do this. Now ten seconds is not nearly as long as starting up this tractor.

Lovely steamer! Runs well and lovely chuff sounds!, always amazes me how they run on such low PSI when not even at working pressure
engines don't need to be at working presure unless they are being worked hard they run no trouble at all below
