TXLABMAN CHRISTMAS CARNIVAL 2019
« on: December 27, 2019, 05:21:28 pm »
A little Christmas Holiday fun in the Steam Cave today.

This is the first steaming of my SPS Jensen 70/70 BB with Black Base. Saint Paul Steam really outdid himself with this one.  Thank you Bruce!

The engine runs like a fine Swiss Watch and easily drives the Empire B-47 Ferris Wheel and the Brass Swings from Trevstoybox in Australia.

The DK Machine Products Vertical Engine is running on 5 psi of air and is driving the replica Empire Giant Stride Swings No. 48 also made by Saint Paul Steam. There are no known examples of the original of this Empire Accessory.

I hope you enjoy the video.

Me too Nick. I now have three SPS Jensens. An identical one to the one in the video but with the copper base and a Double 5.

These all run perfectly.

Proud to have them in my collection.
