Post by: oilfield_steam on March 03, 2020, 07:14:54 am: Thanks All...

I've hunted for a Doll Traction Engine since seeing your "Rolling Fireball" video, Brent. Such a nice piece from a true collector's impressive stable.

Great Scott! (never get tired of saying that). That is a truly great paring of two magnificent pieces--and nice scale speeds to boot! Eberhard would be very proud. Thanks for posting.

Welcome back, Brent!

and

Thanks again, Scott, for a great showing!

Post by: Roscoe on March 03, 2020, 06:45:03 am: Excellent display Scott, wonderful collection of engine’s you heve there. Was fun watching the trios of engines running at the same time. Than I jumped on the thread with the Ferris wheel and enjoyed watching the progression with that, nice job.

Post by: Woe is me on March 02, 2020, 09:51:47 pm: Love twins and Doll made them right. Put the cylinder's together, valves in the middle side by side,
and the flywheel on the out side so as not to split them up. Keeps all the action together.
A man and his Doll's is a beautiful ting.

Title: Re: Scott's Table for the First Annual GPU 2020
Post by: txlabman on February 29, 2020, 09:14:53 am: I never get tired of seeing this trio running Scott.

Thanks for firing them up for our visit earlier this month.

The pinnacle of Doll Engines IMHO. 🤠
Title: Re: Scott's Table for the First Annual GPU 2020
Post by: oilfield_steam on February 29, 2020, 09:12:28 am: A full model line here... Doll 512's on live steam.

Some will recall the ups and downs of the 512/2. Arrived in very poor condition due to shoddy packing. The original bent and damaged crankshaft was somehow lost in the mail when I sent it off to get some help with it. ParallelMotion helped with restoring the bearing blocks and Dan/Freespawn produced a new crank shaft from scratch. Can't thank you guys enough!!!

Proud to say now all three can "show their stuff" on live steam.

Post by: txlabman on February 29, 2020, 09:10:44 am: A Doll Trio of impeccable quality Scott.

And I can attest that this is only a small sampling of Scott’s extraordinary collection!

Thank you for participating in GPU 2020. 🤠

Title: Re: Scott's Table for the First Annual GPU 2020
Post by: Stoker on February 29, 2020, 08:37:24 am: Well now Scott .... you may have only set one plate upon your table, but it was a very large plate with three delicious entres showing beautiful presentation. Reminds me of an old song that I'll paraphrase here:

"Oh you beautiful Dolls, you great big beautiful Dolls ..."

NICE ... VERY NICE INDEED!!!

Post by: oilfield_steam on February 29, 2020, 07:52:51 am: Table is set with one plate as of the moment.

A demonstration under live steam of the Doll 365 Model Line (minus one).
