Mamod Centurion TE1313C Traction Engine
« on: July 06, 2026, 06:14:04 pm »
Here's my Mamod Centurion running on live steam and powering a beautifully made, homemade brass vintage gold stamper built by Trevor Woollan. It's a great combination to watch, with the Centurion driving the stamper smoothly and effortlessly.

Considering the high quality that Trev built that beautiful stamp mill to .... I'd be willing to bet that even a standard oscillating Mamod TE could run it just fine!

What a treat!!!

It's not something that I would like to take apart unfortunately.
