Thanks for the great pictures George. 

Another world class build. 

I had seen the short video of the Baler on your YouTube Cannel (below).

I am sure we (as well as your 3.3k YouTube Channel Subscribers) would  really enjoy seeing a video of the Baler and the Traction Engine Running!

Title: Miniature Case traction engine and baler
Post by: gbritnell on May 24, 2019, 09:05:44 am

Several years into the Sherline miniature contest that used to be held in conjunction with the NAMES show I built this model. Sherline would post the parameters that needed to be met for the forthcoming show so I took the drawings for my full sized 1 inch Case and scaled them down to meet the requirement. I think the scale come out to be about 1:45. The baler was taken from the drawings I did for my 1 inch Case baler.
Mechanically they both operate with the traction engine being able to operate on air.
