Even in slow motion it zooms along!

What a beauty Tim and the first time I have seen one of these doing some work.

Enjoyed watching this.

It's a nice looking "little" beam engine - I'm sure it'll look good as a display piece slowed down some.

Considering how small the piston and displacement on that is, I'd say it is doing great!

I agree with Daniel as that is doing well powering that accessory. It looks very similar to the one on Ministeam's website except that one has a boiler.

Seen that beam many times on ebay, but never realized it was that small. Fun video Tim!  :D

Fun project and test piece in any case.

Jins tiny beam can do work but it's a job in itself to hold it down. When it is well run in I plan to make it a running desk piece with an electric motor driving it with an o-ring belt. Meanwhile it's wide open or nothing at all!
