TTB-02 Steam Engine Running a collection of Stamping Mills
« on: May 24, 2020, 02:55:31 am »


One of Trev's TTB-02 Steam Engines Running a collection of Stamping Mills

Hope all are well.
Been ages since I ran an engine, still cleaning up and getting our property back on track after the New Years Eve bushfires and the flood in February.
Every time I've ventured into the steam room to start cleaning the ash off every surface that there is, I've quickly found some other chore to do!

Oh my, when you twisted that Fleischman line shaft & brought that beautiful creation to life & that cacophony of mechanical music came to life....my wife ,whom was still napping in the front room woke up & said "what is that noise" ...I guess I had the speaker volume up from last night....lol, nice video Jim & good to see you posting again.

Thanks Bruce and Nick it was really nice to smell the metho burning and watch that run. I'll be running it a few more times today as its freezing cold (well Oz cold...not Minnesota cold :) ) and miserable outside.

Ditto, great to see a new video Jim.  I'm sure it is only a diversion for you, but a well-earned one.

BTW, I love my TTB-02 Twin.

Hey Jim, That is a real nice video. Glad to see you had time to enjoy and share your adventures in getting hammered with the TTB2. I have one of those but I've only run it once. It does a great job with your hammershop!

I am still catching up from my quarantine at my Ranch.

It warmed my heart to see your steam up after such a difficult start to the year for you and your family.

Looking forward to more of your great videos! 🤠
