Mi Steam Table
« on: February 27, 2021, 03:03:09 pm »
Hi to everyone at this 2021 Global Power-Up.

I would like to show my Ernst Plank smaller version of No. 217
and an overhead pulley, Ernst Plank stamper, and an old grinding
wheel.

The following items are just some of the different items I have
collected over the year that I would show other than steam.

This is a B. F. Goodrich Spark Plug display case.

Telegraph sounder

Polar Cub Type G motor made by A.C. Gilbert Co.
I knew that they made erector sets in looking up information
on this motor, I found out they also made electric fans.

This a Model T coil tester that I made when I owned
a 1926 Model T.

Power Unit made by W.M. Welch Scientific Co.

I do not know what this is and all I know is it was used in a high school science class.

Great video. I have a smaller version of your engine (no Governor) which I featured on my Table for GPU 2020.

You also have some other interesting collectibles, especially the Spark Plug Case.

Like new - very nice engine and line shaft
but I do also like your collection of Spark Plugs.
I own a Packard Opera Coupe from 1923 - maybe you
can supply me with all new Spark Plugs - haha ;D

Greetings, Arnold
