First Run of the M. E. Beam Engine
« on: December 20, 2021, 06:55:45 pm »
This is the first run of my model English beam engine. I bought an engine that someone had started and I have been working on it since mid summer. Today was the first run and I am happy with the results. I have quite a bit more to do to finish the engine, but this was a milestone.
