I believe every mechanical engineering student should have an opportunity to work with old equipment like this. What an education! Thank you.
I guess regular mechanics should also have opportunity, as those ain't so common.
They might engineer something serviceable if you do that.
Why, the tech is so outdated. There are things to learn from old stuff but there is also a reason to forget old things as well.
@@adamjankowski4315 Forget old things? Can you give an example?
@@orangemultiplayer1453 Yes, forget older things. Sometimes making things fully replaceable by the customer is irresponsible and costly. Making modular at that point makes sense. Doing what Apple does and now all the others is down right profit mongering. Its not the engineering that derives the outcomes of todays products but the bankers, accountants, and CEO's who want to F over the population. Government doesn't care as long as the money keeps flowing through society. You have to realize that if its not worth fixing throw it away, if it is worth fixing then someone out there can. Good luck sticking with old technology and living in the past.
It’s interesting how yesterdays tools become today’s art.
I try to put them to actual use. Not just standing for show! /Richard
@@YesterdaysMachinery that I like! I would love to tour your place!
"Every fifty years or so" perfect! That shingle machine is delightfully dangerous, I love it. well done sir
It’s crazy how dangerous machinery used to be. Basically all of them doubled as maiming-machines. Explains why a lot of the old men in my industrial town tended to miss a few digits!
Yeah, the whole time I was just thinking of the many ways this could kill or grievously hurt people. Jesus.
Not so much the machines, old guys are just a bit crazy and even worse when they were young. My grandpa ripped his ring finger off when he jumped off a truck, dad crushed one under a massive log cause he's a lumberjack and he's ok. Works all night and sleeps all day you know
@@datadavis LOL, nice monty reference... I was like "He's okay?" till I read the rest.
And , yet, today people are psychologically maimed continuously by the liars we so foolishly listen to, whom pretend to represent us and/or pose as "experts".,, So, tell me, which is worse?
@@landrec2 - the carving knife in your kitchen could kill or grievously hurt you or somebody else. And how about your car? The world is, always has been, and always will be a dangerous place.
The only safeguard is to remember that cautionary notice a friend put on his lathe, which read as follows:-
1. This machine cannot tell the difference between metal and flesh.
2. This machine does not have a brain, *so use your own.*
Been looking forward to part three. Great resurrection of a historic machine. And nice seeing it doing what it was designed for! Thanks for taking us along for the ride! Best wishes from the UK 🇬🇧
Here in the States, we call those type of shingles, "shakes". Id it's made from sawed wood, it's a shingle here, if it's made from split wood we call it a shake.
Nope...shingles are thin and narrow, shakes are up to 12" wide and thick about 1" on fat end. I worked as a sawyer for quite a few years
And a hot bath! Great use of all the attributes of old machinery.
a sauna after a days work!
Gday, absolutely awesome to see this engine running and making shingles, I had a laugh when you jumped in the barrel, great video as always mate, Cheers
I absolutely love the sound of that beautiful old engine and I could listen to it all day. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
Yes it has a great sound to it. Just listen to it and drink some beer. /Richard
@@YesterdaysMachinery You should make a 4 hour video of just the sound like they do with rain or whales so that you can help engineers to get to sleep.
Interesting shingle mill. The various shingle mills I've seen are all saw based and produce a tapered shingle. Very cool to see a different way of shingle production. Thanks for sharing.
Brilliant to see the engine doing real work for a change 👏 and love that you just had to get in the barrel 😁😁
great job reworking this old engine it was really cool seeing it run and you got some shingles out of it too....not to mention a warm bath. lol
very good, keeps an old man in the uk very happy,Thanks.
Spectacular job Brother 👍🏻 👏 hello from Detroit Michigan USA
Hi! Thank you from Småland, Sweden! /Richard
Love these old antique machines, so much style, craftsmanship, and overwhelming quality.
Glad to see a young man with passion for yesteryear engineering
Hi, it is a good thing you are young and fit to start the engine haha. Many thanks for all your uploads, from Nr Liverpool UK.
Love it Richard. Greetings from Ireland.
I really enjoyed the 3 part series. From Australia 🇦🇺
i legitimately subscribed 30 minutes ago so i could see the end result of this project haha.
thank you winds of the YT algorithm. you have shown me something i enjoy watching for once
You've been the inspiration for blacksmiths and metal workers to build their own hot bulb engins from the raw materials. Way to go and keep it going!
Love watching these things being put to work instead of just idling. So cool
She's beautiful!!!
Just came across this series. It's quite interesting and very well made. I love seeing old machinery being put through it's paces by a skilled presenter. Thank you!
Also very useful if you want to make Sauerkraut for the whole village ˆ.ˆ
Hahahaha! Yes it would be really fun 😅
Fantastic work my friend! I love seeing younger generations taking as much an interest in old engines and farm equipment as you do, and it is ever better that you are a content creator on UA-cam! Thankyou for sharing your passion with us and that you for sharing the great engineering that paved the road for the modern technology that we have today! This will go a long way to not only inspiring new generations of engineers but also bring them down to earth a little, as it is always a strong temptation for younger generations to have a superiority complex towards the older generations, these machines show the ingenuity of our forefathers to build engines that could make life easier and improve efficiency!
Absolutely love watching all these old engines running.. I have to agree with you about the repair a lot of times people have it repaired all cleaned up ground down and you never know it was repaired honestly I think it's much cooler to see repairs cuz some of the repairs for done when the machine was fairly new and it's lasted for 50 to 90 years and still works just shows a proper repair will last forever.
😂🎉😢
I enjoyed watching you braz. Its almost a lost art these days. I brazed in the refrigeration business for 50 years. Thank you for this very interesting video.
Underbart att se att det finns dom som förstår att rädda vår svenska industri historia. Underbar video.. Såklart man ska ta vara på varmvattnet till ett härligt bad. 👍🏻💚
Take a bath in the coolant water, Hahahaha ! I had to laugh out loud when i see your dress flying ! Wonderful video and i am exited about the roof work coming up on your channel. Greetings from germany
Great job on bringing that old engine back to life! I just found your channel a few days ago, and since then I've been binge-watching your videos. Great stuff!
It does my heart good to see these old engines restored and not end up as scrap.
Absolutely beautiful job from start to finish, especially just love the shingle machine what nice shingle's it makes for something that old you could make enough shingle's for a roof in one day. Cheers from Australia
Wonderful not only to see this beauty of a hit and miss running again, but to see you making parts for it and keeping it maintained. Greetings from Romania ❤️🇷🇴
Sal
This is not hit and miss engine where valve is left open when rpm rises too high. This engine stops injecting fuel same way as modern diesel engines.
Thank you very much for this trio of videos. I must admit that I have no idea of engineering, engines or mechanics, but I find watching repairs soothing. What I really like about your videos is that you take the time to explain about what and why you are doing things, so you might turn me into an engineer yet 🙂
Very interesting. Thank you.
Very nice, great to see the old equipment getting a new lease on life. Ty for sharing
I am very impressed! You have taught me a lot. I especially enjoyed watching you braze cast iron. That is a skill I would love to learn. That shingle machine looks scary dangerous. Glad you kept all your fingers so you can keep making great stuff.
Brazing is really easy to do, kieth fenner has some good videos on brazing if you're interested
Not just the shingle machine, the way that drive belt was wobbling around looked the stuff of nightmares. I'm no expert but I remember gruesome stories of people being caught by drive belts... And this guy takes a bath in the tub only inches away, with the engine still running!
Awesome expertise though.
@@gerardvila4685 I doubt the shingle machine needs to be run in one direction so putting a twist in the belt and a bit tighter belt would work better. IMHO
@@dwightl5863 This Blade need just to know whrere the Wood is. The rotatingdirection does not matter...
I love watching you work on,start and get these old machines running! Absolutely fascinating!👍 thanks for letting us watch you and taking us along for the ride!😁
Great to see this old equipment being renewed and not forgotten. What an age for machines. Reminds me of when I was young we used to get the tractor, belt it to the buz saw & cut fire wood and they would get out the thrashing machine, set it up belted to a tractor, would pickup shocks of grain and haul them to the thrashing machine to separate the grain.
Love to see you do a roofing project with those shingles! Great video!
Today when a person claims to be a "Mechanic", it means they plug a car into a computer which tells him which part to replace.
You sir a truely a mechanic plus machinist, welder and who knows, tool and die make?
Loved watching you work. You are amazing. It's like you have the skills and knowledge of a man 4 times your age.
Outstanding!
Really like the engine and the shingle cutter.
Very nice to see the old engine doing work! Thanks
Wonderful demonstration of why this is such a great hobby!
For people wondering about the belt flopping around, it doesn't matter if the belt stays on the crowned pulleys. For a gas engine that only fires once per revolution or once per 2 revolutions, the slack belt might help absorb the less frequent firing impulses. In the US, steam traction engine operators normally twist the belt to break its lateral stability. The belt rubbing against itself also damps out lateral wander. Of course these steam engines can run either direction, so reversal of rotation can be canceled out. On a gas engine, it might be necessary to turn the engine around. An alternative, turn one end of the belt inside out.
Always a Better day when you Post these Vids 👍🏻
Thank you! /Richard
@@YesterdaysMachinery Back at You Richard 😊👍🏻
Awesome video! You are very talented! Love seeing these old engines brought back to life, and used.
Great story! I always was fascinated by technology that can be repaired with simple tools & craftsmanship. No windows updates needed :)
I worked as a farm hand for 15 years or so. Nothing old like you have but still love anything mechanical. Pretty amazing work you do. All the best, appreciate the videos.
Excellent video of older technology.
Beautiful job of brazing that crack. That shingle maker turns out a nice product but a bit of inattention could really shorten your reach.
That was a lot of work just to get a hot soak. Well done.
First! Another great video. If you run it regularly, it should be broken in in 10 years or so!
Incredibly interesting watching you revive these old engines. Keep up the fine work. Thanks for taking the viewers along.
That was great. It's nice to see this machine come back to life with the work you've put into it.I bet more than a few guys took a bath in a barrel like that when the boss wasn't looking! I really enjoy what you do here and getting to see this stuff work once again. There is something about the sound of these old engines, it's just soothing to listen to them work.
Hi Richard. Thank you for another great video, I had no idea that's how wooden roof tiles were made, shingles I think you called them. Love that engine she's perfect now cant wait for the next instalment. Take care.
Beautiful
I loved the Machinist in the barrel picture! A clean machinist is a happy machinist. Your wife must be thrilled to see you come home cleaner than when you left in the morning. No muddy paws on the kitchen floor!
Cheers.
You amaze me. You are a very intelligent man. Thank you for showing your workmanship.
Awesome job Richard! Fantastic to see these old machines and how they were used. Seems like it is a really well balanced machine; on your close ups there seems to be minimal vibration.
I'm hopping by from the WayOutWest Workshop channel. This machine is fantastic! I love the old engine. You just love to see it do some work after such a long time.
It’s so refreshing to hear someone discuss anything at all, without constantly hedging and neutralizing their statements. I’m from the states, you are a breath of fresh air. Keep on keeping on!!!
Respect for your love for old technology. I used to be a ships engineer and sometimes had to use old technology to make spare parts for old equipment (pre 1950’s). It was always fun and very satisfying.
Hi! Thank you! /Richard
Nice to have the engine working again.👍 Old shingle mills here in Nova Scotia, which I have seen set up as exhibits used a saw blade and and a clamping device to feed the wood into the saw. A little less dangerous! Love the bit of humour at the end, with you in the barrel! 😊
Thank you Richard for yet another great video of bring historic machines back to life and showing their operation…
I was particularly interested in your shingle making machine. I’ve not previously seen this quite interesting version. I’ve seen many vertical splitting and sawing shingle making machines, but not this type. Very nice version, indeed.
I really enjoy your interesting and informative videos. Please continue making them and educating all of us about these interesting and historic machines, their operation and use.
Thank you, again from Pennsylvania, U.S.A.
Edward Belledin
I was thinking the same thing Mr. Belledin. I've seen several vertical shingle mills, but I never saw a horizontal example. It actually looks a bit easier to use than the vertical type!
@@Bret4207 Sir, I thought you might be interested in this: it’s another version of a horizontal shingle mill using a saw:

What a great lesson in building a sauna! Love your channel dude! Great work you do. Thanks for your time.
You breathed life into her! Great job!!
Should use a shaped pusher block to push things onto that shingle blade for safety
There is no need for that. The blade is only 5mm (1/4" away from the base, and he stopped cutting about 50mm away from it. You need to be able to lift the log continuously, and apply pressure carefully to moderate the cut. The task is done by using your fingers and hands, and using the sense of touch.
If your recording device or editing/post-production setup is capable of external audio/mic, I think that would catapult your production quality to exactly where it needs to be. Everything else about your content has been great, thank you for sharing!
Just LOVE the bathtub sequence🤟
Keep the videos rolling 😉
Will love your next video as we have enjoyed the last ones! Many good wishes to you and your family.
Absolutely amazing. I really love the concept of separation of tools and engines. A tool that only needs an engine to be attached and then starts to work. I would love to see if you can connect the engine to some other useful tools
What a great job you have done on the engine and wow that shingles machine is a real finger chopping tool! Great to see 👍
I used to go to engine shows with my dad when I was a kid. He'd bring 2 or 3 with him. I'd see a lot of pump rigs and the occasional shingle rig. Thanks for sharing and bringing back some good memories!
she running like she never missed a day of work great job
Again a very interesting video always a pleasure to watch, i for my self own several semi diesel / hot bulb engines too.
But please do something to increase the audio quality / voice volume, this would help a lot.
Thanks Richard! I wish i had that engine. All the best, Jenko.
Hi Jenko! Nice to see you around! Yes it is a nice engine. You got some fine engines that i would like as well! /Richard
Loved you hopping in the water barrel. Love those old engines sound working. 1 1/2 months to my tractor show and sounds of hit and miss's and oil pulls and steamers and gas and diesels will fill the air
I came to this party a bit late but brother am I glad I came. Watching this machinery operate and listening to its music was like looking at a piece of fine art while an orchestra played. I was just absorbed, and after awhile I wondered how much richer the experience would be if could stand there not just watching and listening to it. But, being able to smell it, feel the firing of the engine in the air and in my chest, feeling the movement of its components through the earth into my feet and legs that would be a great experience. I’m looking forward to watching your other videos. By the way, thank you for keeping older machinery alive and well.
This was an amazing series! I love how you made the piston rings, and I am astounded that you had a good injector for it! Wow!
The only thing that bothered me was that the belt was flopping around. An idler pulley is a good safety investment!
I had to laugh at the bath. Fun!
This was amazing!
I was afraid that belt might wind up in the barrel with him.
Nice engine!! The shingle cutter is excellent!!
I love these 19 teen's motors, hit and miss motors, anything big, old, and greasy where the operator had a handlebar mustache. This is when machinery slowly turns into poetry.
A superb series, Richard, and many thanks for all the effort you put into making it, as well as showing us all the 'how' and 'why' of the processes you went through to get this old lady up and running again! Enjoy your hot-tub, mate!!
Great video and really nice engine! Watching you work that shingle cutter kind of give me the willies though. Wouldn't it be a fairly simple solution to put a wooden hinged arm over the blade area that you can use as a lever to push the workpiece down? it might take some tinkering with the geometry to keep the log from turning or flying out, but if this beast is to be used for days (shingling a whole roof) it might be worth it.
Love your videos those 2 stroke engines are like the McDonald ML back here in Australia. They are about 60 to 70hp semi diesels my mate has one interesting engines.
Hello from small town Monett in Southwest Missouri USA. I am so glad I stumbled across your channel. I have gone back and watched almost every one of your videos. I love seeing your equipment and how it is different from what we have in America , other than the Massey Fergusson, it looks a lot like one my dad used to have. Very impressed with your skills, creativity and fearlessness in tearing down the old machines. Keep the content coming. Love you back. Eric.
beautiful beautiful machine, my dream is that one day we'll start manufacturing engines and machines like that again, because it's technology that we've lost and if we're not careful, we'll never get it back again
If you twist the belt by half a turn it will stop it from "slapping" about and run smoother. It won't matter which way the machine runs.
Hi! This machine must run in this way. So that the knife plate is dragged downwards to the machine frame when the crank is pulling. But i could start the engine the other way and the x the belt. But a belt can swing around. Sometimes that also helps the friction because the weight of the belt is swinging. /Richard
@@YesterdaysMachinery I agree with Peter: x the belt. Here in the US midwest we have threshing demonstrations with steam or gas or diesel, and I've never seen one with the belt not crossed. The problem is that a jumping belt could jump off a pulley and get thrown, causing damage or injury. Volunteer bundle loaders would get yelled at or even kicked out if they put too many grain shocks into the thresher sideways. they should go in seeds-first. The sideways bundle would be harder for the thresher knives to cut and the stress would cause the belt to jump. The old-timers would tell stories of men getting killed by a thrown belt and got very upset when the belt started jumping. .
I just found your channel and was immediately taken in by this 3 part series. Phenomenal. Your commentary is perfect. I have to admit to busting out laughing when you got in the "hot tub". Great video and I will watch more now that I've found the channel. 😊
Wonderful progress.
Thank you for sharing.
Im currently rewiring an irritating modern generator. It's nice to take time off to enjoy older technology.
That’s just a lost art ! You are so smart at doing all these repairs and loving what you do, I am envious of you my friend! Great videos on this one engine Thank you so much 🤙🤙🤙
That was BRILLIANT!! All 3 parts! But you would have to use a cattle prod to get me anywhere near all those spinning wheels, flappin belts an slicing blades !! My juice extractor is iffy enough!
Kul att se detta. När jag var liten på 80 talet så använde vi vårt gamla sågverk med en råoljemotor ibland, fast oftast med traktor och remskiva. Bra filmer du gör!!
Nice work with making piston rings that actually seal, Richard! I imagine it will get easier to start after you run it for a while and get them seated in. Any idea what the approximate compression ratio is on that engine? It doesn't seem to have a lot of compression for a hot bulb semi-diesel.😉
Yes it's always pretty hard to keep an engine running at low revs when it's breaking in.
He really did a good job.
That is the coolest job, thank you for sharing your work! I'm impressed!
Wow! Fantastic job! Thanks for sharing this with us and keeping these historic engines running! Watching in the U.S. regards
Great videos. Please make them more watchable by getting a decent mic.
Hi, audio is very difficult to ear. It's just on one channel and very low. GREAT video btw!
