Well, here is my first video ever, produced in 2018 - a KJ Miller 'Triple Engine' display run on air.

164 more to look at...



Since disassembled into three units - and they all heat up.

Happy steamer,

This was my first steam engine video, which was before I ever posted a video on a Empire (I am pretty sure I didn't even have a Empire running at this point).  This is my brother's Jenson that the guys here helped me with.  I even was able to send the magnets out to a member to get "recharged".

I've never seen a double acting cylinder on a Mamod before, was that a factory option or an aftermarket accessory for them?

Bonjour,

As steam passionate and boats collector before creating a Hit & Miss collection, I started my videos 17 years ago... with a boat:

My first ever YouTube video - all 14seconds of it!

A Jensen 95G published September 2006.

Self starting and driving 2 Jensen generators.

This is one of the first 25  #95-Gs produced.

It is #6 or #9.

Sweet video, Gil!  Always loved that spool-up whine.
I see you have the pressure gauge mounted.
Pray tell, how many pounds were you running?  Those Jensen
boilers can handle some pretty high ##'s.
