- This edition concerns work done on steam and Hit & Miss gas engine components done in the shop. While most of the shop is steam powered, these jobs were done on the electric powered side during the "hot spell". Back to burning junk wood next time. Thanks for watching.....Dave

Beautiful result with the shaper! Interesting sleeve press setup. I grew up in a farming family. I remember as a very young boy, my uncle re-sleeved a Farmall tractor. My grandpa had one of the only freezers in the area and my uncle put the sleeves in his freezer overnight, wrapped them in blankets next morning and rushed to the shop. They dropped right in. Good thing as he didn't have any way to press them in. As a young boy I was so amazed how temperature could effect metal like that. I'm 75 and I remember that like it was yesterday!
Great to see another video! Praying for a productive season in the shop for you and company this year, thanks Dave! 🇺🇸
l was amazed at how well that little brass or copper strip was put in that slid valve head...WOW...You do very fine work David on stuff you do !....Thank David...Nice to see you are doing OK my friend...!
It has remained in place thus far, hoping it has no intention of losing its grip!
@@EngineersWorkshop It's held for - probably a century so far, I don't think it'll come loose any time soon! LOL Going to have to go over to your channel and check it out!
@@normmcrae1140 You're welcome and thanks for your interest!
Cutting that cast iron with your shaper, everything about that is beautiful, even the sound. Thanks for the video
Eat my dinner and relax to that scraping noise of metal to metal. Wonderful watching this.
WOO! Just in time to head home!! I'm so ready to relax with some pizza, beer and some steam powered machine shop!
OH yeah I was thinking the same thing, only for me it was a corn bread deep fried catfish dinner, with thick french fries, some tater salad and some Ice Cold Root Beer from the fridge! LOL Best Wishes & Blessings. Keith Noneya
love the noises the shaper was making as it was cutting the highs and missing the lows, then the little clap at the bottom end of the stroke
Hi Dave ! Its amazing the works you do in your shop, i love that shop ! I'm keep hours viewing your videos and learned a ton ! You have a fan here in P.R. Hope some day take a tour in your shop !
Thanks Jose, good to hear from you.....Dave
I have read of a honing machine like you have, but never seen one in use. Elegance in machining sir... Elegance..
That hit & miss will run for a another century. Enjoy the cooler weather.
Nice ! As an apprentice I worked on maintaining the old belt and pulley system (electric motor driven) even held my pants held up with a belt I made.
Was watching a video on todays CNC machines and felt pretty ancient, After watching this iam feeling much better, - thnx
I doubt the kids today would be able to find their way around your machine shop.
Good on ya !
first shop I worked in was my Grandfather's. He ran a line shaft powered shop (off an old John Deere Tractor). He had a forge with a hand crank bellows and I was the dumb kid cranking it all day when he forged. He had a Lathe but no mill or shaper. I hated it then but I bless his memory every day now.
I have learned so much from this guy. Fascinating!
Nice to have you back, Dave. Thanks for another great video.
Tedious work. Dedication to concentration. I respect your wit.
The G&E shaper sure made that look easy. Interesting to learn about clamping from the sides only. Thanks for getting the camera in there so we can see!
That is a large shaper
This fellow has the most soothing channel to watch. I dont know exactly what makes it so captivating to me but I love it, keep up the good work and thanks for letting us into your world Dave
I second that. Always good to see another upload. Good luck.
Calm voice and no annoying music makes it one of the best channels on YT
@@ralfgottfridhansson3127 There are definitely several factors involved here. I have to say I agree with you though. I often get the feeling of dejavu watching Dave's videos, where it reminds me of being a fortunate child growing up inside of my dads shop as a child and having him teach me the trade. Of course as a child I didn't realize how lucky I was until I hit my early 30's and finally realized I didn't know it all like I thought. One of life's lessons!!
@@honda450rider87 , Most strange that, something nearly everyone goes through, especially teenagers who know every thing ,and as you get older realize you know less each year until you get to the point when it finally dawns on you that you know next to nothing .
how true...Dave
It's always a pleasure seeing the great work that you do. Thank you for sharing it.
Gday Dave, i really enjoyed watching, interesting jobs that you don’t normally see and I find this great, you do a fantastic job and using old machines that are still good to this day, thank you for sharing Dave, I certainly appreciate the effort you go to, please take care mate, Cheers Matty
Really nice accurate work Dave.Thank's
Great video Dave . Cheers .
A little firewater in that boiler Dave? So glad you are back. Great video!
Always enjoy seeing the antique engines get a new lease on life through your shop. That hit and miss will probably last another one hundred years. That is a fine looking sleeve you put in that cylinder.
Love the set up, with your knowledge and skill I’d put you up as a master craftsmen
We appreciate so much the fact that you take the extra time to share your processes with us. Just maybe this knowledge won't be lost!
Always look forward to The Old Steam Powered Machine Shop.
Hello Dave...and community. I am very happy to see the new post, and naturally interested
in the projects at hand. M.
This one was good for two cups of coffee and I loved every minute! Thanks Dave!
I could watch this all day
Thanks for the Vid, Dave. Great to see ya back at work!
David, Awesome video, great content, really enjoyed watching and thanks for sharing your video hope to see another.!.!.!.
Beautiful work Dave . Steam will never die with your tireless devotion to it ,thank you .
A steam powered shop would be much nicer in the winter.
That wood must be really dry to woof like that when a match gets near it! LOL
Those interrupted cuts are like music! So mesmerizing and soothing and almost puts me to sleep.
Here i am at work, sitting at my desk writing another manual and listening to that shaper working. I'm thinking I wonder if other people find that sound as soothing as I do?
Seams that they do...
Thanks for another great video Dave.
Sometimes I need to hone out .005 or .010 of taper, I use a hand held hone and hone it from both ends so the stones don't wear on a taper. With this set up you could switch the stones in the holder. Kind of cool honing equipment.
Hello (from Australia) David,
I just love what you are doing for us UA-camrs.
I only found your site two weeks ago, and have devourered every one to number 65. I am very happy to be watching no. 66, almost live. Love the Aussie flag on your wall.
Thankyou, and Regards,
John Barrell
Hi John, Glad to hear from all the Australian viewers. Right now AU makes makes up the third most channel views. I guess I need to adjust the flags around a little.....Dave
The fact that you even know what these machines are is cool,,, the fact that you know how to use them is amazing !
It's awesome to have you bring us more videos! Thanks for the great work!
Thanks for another great and very interesting video Dave. Thanks for sharing your skills with us.
Smooth job on the sleeving.
Fascinating - as always. Thanks for taking the time and effort to make your videos.
That took me back to my youth, especially the ribbon check. Thanks Dave
Glad to see You are back making a video. Always enjoy your videos. You don't make a big fuss about your aging machines and how to hold specs. Keep up the good work.
Neat jobs. Love honing. Thanks.
Excellent camera angle starting at 14:10. You can really see just how far out that one corner is.
Nice job Dave!
Thanks for another great video and once again the timing was perfect.
All good work, thanks for keeping on.
Interesting stuff as usual! I like your camera style and editing, and really appreciate not being hand held all the time.
Nice!! Love the shaper... :-)
Great video presentation as always, thank you for sharing this wonderful experience, I am in hospital having my second total knee replacement, so this is allowing me to feast on all my favourite channels, yours being close to the top. Appropriate subject matter replacing worn out parts. Stay safe, Dave, keep away from the virus spreaders. 👍😁🛠🇦🇺
Good luck with the knee, it's a fairly routine operation these days....Dave
Always makes for a better day when you post a new video. Thanks for sharing and the content.
Fantastic video Dave, appreciate your talent
Thanks again Dave!
You are a true master! Always enjoy your videos and look forward to every one of them. Thank you.
Nice job on the cover and cylinder, sure look great.
Another great informative video ,Thank David
A new "Old Steam Powered Machine Shop" video! ...made my day...
Sure missed you Dave. Come back soon
New video made my day :D was out working on my old iron and watching you work on yours. great end to a day. thanks for all the effort you put into every video and good to hear the steam is building up for another season of projects :)
Thanks for the great video Dave. Fall is in the air here in the PNW. Keep them coming and hope you have a great year.
Good to see you again Dave! I understand full well what is it like working in a hot place. I worked many years on steam ships (down below, of course), and if it was under 100F, then it was nice. Soaking wet with sweat, head to foot, I know that drill well. Keep up the good work!
Beautiful job on that cylinder.
Hi again Mr. Richards
Happen they might have used an old leadscrew to pull them sleeves in at one time..
Them sleeves:
The O/D might be done on a surface grinder with a driven roller bed set at a slight angle to the wheel...to pull it through...
Place I worked at once had a setup like that for grinding the O/Ds on carbide wire drawing dies...🇬🇧🙂
An old lead screw probably would work fine....Dave
Hi Dave, I was happy to see another video come up. I was starting to worry about your health, or have you quit your shop work. Glad to see you are doing well, and making chips.
I had it right, on your shaper hold downs on the steam cover, I was sure there were pins. I would not rely on gravity to hold that cover down. One of my machine shop instructors said, "If you know the capabilities of the machine, and you get creative with your setup, you can machine just about anything you can imagine". Thank you for letting us hanging out with you.
Glad to see another one. Always entertaining and learning
Had me itching and scratching on how you held down the steam box cover....last few seconds gave me the answer. As always, nice video!
ha, got you to thinking?.....Dave
Simply Awesome! David thanks for another great video and especially showing us the part installed on the end item. Show that always brings a closing to a video in that we can see the end result. Thanks for sharing. Best Wishes & Blessings. Keith Noneya
Old and talented machines showing off operator skills!!! Yaaa!!
Another great video, thanks.:)
Another great video, Dave, thanks, always so interesting.
new sub. here i am so glad i stumbled across your channel!! i love it
Thanks !! I wish you had more videos ! Love them !
Keep up the good work David, there are absolutely no channels like it the UK. We are sadly slowly sinking into decline!
Thanks once again for letting me look over your shoulder,I have learned a lot from your videos,believe me it has been worth the wait.NE Ohio
Dave I have just been reading about balanced steam slide valves in a book published in 1917, written by J.H. Yoder and G.B. Whalen. Called locomotive valves and valve gears. Now at least I have seen video of the cover. Thanks for another great video.
I'm doing some explaining in my next video on this.
I was beginning to wonder why I hadn't seen anything from you. I thought you might have been dealing with the virus, but lucky for you, it was just a heat wave.
Thank you, I was wondering if you where okay.
Best wishes
Hi Dave when I have a casting like that and hard to get ahold of, I tap the holes sae if I can then put in a bolt or something with a jam nut. Weld something flat or whatever for the hold downs to ketch. It seams in a job shop you just gota invent something for each job. Like you I haven't found much I couldn't fix the impossible just takes a little longer. Paul
true, it's all in the set up....Dave
ya gotta love the shaper . . . no finesse at all, just brute strength plowing through metal!
Nice work 👍🏻
Your back!!! Awesome!!!
Hi Dave,
I love watching shaping machine work... Looking forward to seeing the results of your hard work on the Engineers Workshop channel.
Take care
Paul,,
I'm trying hard to get it spinning with air pressure... no boiler available right now!
First time to your channel dave. Love seeing old machines in use. Looking forward to seeing more. Keep up the good work.
Glad to have you along Matt. Feel free to jump in the discussion anytime......Dave
Nice restoration. I bet its better than original.
Thanks Dave for the great video , been missing your videos 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Nice to see you again Dave, it would have been fun to see that job on the planet. Better safe than sorry I guess . I t will probably take a while to get all the little kinks out of the planet before doing anything comercial. Thanks again.
Excellent, thanks.
I’m amazed. Nice work.. Du är ett riktigt proffs...
great to see you again. I cant wait to see the planer at work
Nuff ttalking
nice work
Hello David,
It is very good to see you are oké.
A very informatieve video as always.
Greetings from Friesland in the Netherlands
Good to hear from you again Henk....Dave
that thing was pumping out a blazing beat for a second
Hi Dave, another interesting video, your content is always of an interesting and educational, another exceptional video from the Old Steam powered machine shop. Well done! A fan from Aus.
Excelente trabajo al restaurar y darle uso a esta tecnología que era de punta en su tiempo, lo felicito por mantenerlas en funcionamiento, saludos desde Venezuela.
Gracias por mirar, he aprendido a comprender sus limitaciones. ¿Puede utilizar la función de traducción automática para que mis subtítulos se muestren en español?
Excelente trabalho meu amigo!!
Mestre da medicina!!
Thanks for all the videos long time viewer but just subscribed!
You, Keith Fenner and Brian Block have the most interesting projects and videos!
Honored to be in that company.....Dave
Dave: so glad to see you back working and in good form. Your UA-cam friends worry about you. One request: on other videos I have seen a type of indicator that instead of a dial has a pointer that moves back and forth at the back of the tool. I assume this was a predecessor to the dial indicator. Could you show how this works on some future video?
Starrett Number 64 indicator, I'll try to use it more.....Dave
@@davidrichards5594 Here is a link to Johnathan W's channel. He just bought a steam engine that he is trying to save. Thought you might be able to help him with some advise, or as you go past on your way to Florida ua-cam.com/video/bD5IThO_W6A/v-deo.html
Hi Dave,
As ever superb videos. Interesting comment about the way to prevent warping the cylinder cover when machining. Am guessing the clamps were providing lateral force to hold it in place against the end support and blocks.

G'day Dave good to see you again you certainly have some great machines I thought that the honing cabinet was gust great and the horizontal cutting and not sure if that was what you would call it, very interesting and great filming it thanks mate regards John
