Nice video. And the kid behaves absolutely correctly - for a kid, no complaints!
The ground seems rather slippery - so there is some rubber on the wheels?

That video reminds me of my Dad - nothing a good swift kick in the seat of the pants wouldn't fix.

Haha - very cool video and funny tractor -
but it's not King Kong it is Santa Claus!
Greetings Arnold ;D
We did get a dusting of snow last night and maybe more tomorrow, so I guess he’s kind of “in-season”? 😂

Nice TE, runs really well. With the brim of his hat cocked to the side, he reminded me
of the original "Our Gang".
It’s been on him for about a week now, he only lets me take it off when he sleeps :D

Your boy reminded me of King Kong stomping around after the TE.
I had to fix the title of the thread :D

I watched this as soon as it posted on YouTube. Your boy reminded me of King Kong stomping around after the TE. Is that a tire valve screwed into the top of the boiler?
Looks like it is quite well built and runs great.

Haha, he’s normally really good about not touching, I think he just wanted to keep it moving.
That is a Jensen safety valve, the original had a crumbling spring and luckily I found one that fit while the water was still warm :D

Neat , I was really amazed at how easily it traveled over the gapped boards...hardly a ripple in its running. My Grandsons would have likely kicked the fire out of that if I'd have given them the "slightest" encouragement to "bump" it.
I purposely waited for a rainy day to try this one out… the bouncing on the deck shook alcohol out everywhere and for awhile it had a flame trailing behind it :D
It was very windy out today and under 40 degrees so I had to keep pulling the wicks further out to really give it some heat. The safety valve needs a new spring but a Jensen valve screwed in easily so I was able to continue the run.

Engine is quite well made with a flue through the boiler that goes out the stack

Picked this up off ebay last fall, my favorite part of the video happens at 15 seconds when this kid kicks my toy 🙄 😂
