This is not a bing machine. It looks like a doll to me. Looks like the machine Tommy found....
I didn´t post for the ID Jürgen, as i have no knowledge in that field, but because of the match...

My statement related to the ebay offer, in which the machine was offered as a Bing machine. I am still wondering about the eccentric. I have never seen a part like this at Doll or any other manufacturer.

Since noone seemed to have seen those before, i found it interesting that two engines of the same kind shows up, within such a short timeframe.
This listing furthermore removes any doubts (should there have been such), that the eccentrics is an original design from the manufacturer.

Post by: Dampfopa on March 25, 2021, 04:47:14 am: The story is totally confusing. I have never come across such an eccentric. The cast iron foundation of the drive is also installed in at least one plank machine.

Despite a great deal of competition, there has been a long-term collaboration between the Nuremberg manufacturers. The different manufacturers used the same parts in production. Maybe in this case too.

Hopefully someone in the forum will have one of the early dealer catalogs in which the machine is listed.

Post by: Dampfopa on March 24, 2021, 02:56:44 pm: I also believe it is an early doll machine. The water level glass is clearly the older Doll version. I cannot find the steam engine in the documents available to me. However, I've already seen the part somewhere.🤔

I say that it is early Doll, I’d recognise that sight glass with my eyes closed.

That's what I was thinking after I looked at the cast engine base and colors after cleaning.
Have you ever seen that style of cut out on the eccentrics for forward and reverse? Like a
letter C.

Post by: Woe is me on March 23, 2021, 04:43:49 pm: Was told it was a Falk but there's no tag, price was good so when I started tear down clean up,
I noticed the strange cut out for forward and reverse. See pictures and little video.
