Hi Norman. Your ingenuity shows no bounds. From catching “carrot” bolts to knocking up a stand out of nothing your approach to everything is inspiring. One more video and I will have caught up. 👏👏👍😀
You have to be creative with the carrott bolts. The governor will take a few weeks to sort out no doubt. Thanks for this weeks work update. Brian from South Yorkshire.
One of my most memorable experiences was a visit to a yard in Lincolnshire full of traction engines and plowing engines and a lot of tractors I think it was late 80 or early 90 I think it was owned by two or three brothers.
All the technology and it’s down to a length of rod with a cup on and a vice at the end of the forks😆👌looking forward to the governor work👍. Out of intrastate, how come you TIG instead of MIG so much 🤔🤷♂
@@casto- Tig welders closer to the bench. No real reason just prefer tig, not much splatter, better weld, uses less gas in my opinion. Would use the mig for anything structural in the shed and stick weld most stuff outside.
@@ianlarcher8250 All from where it was parked up once it finished its working life. If you go to www.steamscenes.org.uk/engines/wallis-steevens/general-purpose-engine/2959/34/ You can see some of the pictures of the engine before it was restored. Cheers

Clever little bolt catcher. It can be tough doing things alone, But some days its easier than having help!

What were you using to clean it while it was on the folks? Only it didn’t seem to make enough mess to be water
@@Nick-pr5gw The steam cleaner? When it was hung on the forklift?
Apoligies if its been asked before, but I curious about the history of this engine and how it came to be so deeply pitted.
