Jensen Steam Engines #50 Steamed-Up for the 2nd Run with Original Generator Repaired at the Office of Steam
« on: April 22, 2023, 07:56:09 pm »
Greetings all...  I have recorded the second run of the once grungy Jensen #50. 

This time it has it's original generator all repaired by Randy Tucker. He recharged the magnet, cleaned the silver enamel droplets off of it, and most important replaced the main shaft with a new and longer one. This generator works great! 
Thank you, Randy.

Here's a new video for your viewing pleasure.

Enjoy!

Gil

From Grunginess to Greatness .... just got to love them Jensen #50s, and even more so when adorned with rivets!!!

Gil, I surely do wish you lived about three thousand miles closer, I'd be over to play most any day that you'd let me!   ;c)

I am glad my brother didn't give me his Jensen or I'd likely gone down the rabbit hole trying to put their engines on my "list".  I'm going broke as it is with Empires ;-)
