Hello Ade, Sorry for being on the missing list, I'm back now. The TE1 is looking really nice, great work... Take care. Paul,,

[@SimonHollandfilms]

looking good....mamod reborn.

Word of advice: Don't clean pearls in the ultrasonic tank. You will get progressively smaller pearls until they fall out of the mounting.

[@ade63dug]

good advice . Cheers Ade.

I had a Mamod as a child with meths burner. 60 years later and I do model engineering as a hobby so the seeds were sown with that tiny engine.

[@ade63dug]

similar story for me . had the mamod roller at about 10 , 50 years ago coming up . Cheers Ade.

[@nobbysworkshop]

The Mamod is looking really great Ade. I do like the wheels in black, with the brass caps. I just bought an old Mamod Minor. Shown in my last video. Only doing a minor tidy up to it. Keep up the good work Ade. Cheers Nobby

[@2WHEELSor2WINGS]

That little engine is looking lovely, I do like the black. Have you considered painting the front axle, think it would make it look even better ?? 👍😎

[@TrPrecisionMachining]

good job ADES

[@trevorjones4463]

Well done mate

[@sharkrivermachine]

I have the very same Mamod Traction Engine. I need some help but I will keep it as original as I can, Enjoying the series.

[@ade63dug]

I will do an original steam roller . Cheers Ade.

[@sharkrivermachine]

@@ade63dug I have the steam roller also. I fired it up to run and the smoke box fell off. It had been drilled wrong at the factory and the holes did not line up with the boiler so the pop rivets did not hold. Another project for me.

[@ade63dug]

the smokebox uses 1/8 rivets (3.2mm) . maybe look at 4mm to fix it if the holes are to big . can get them and post if you can't get them . Cheers Ade.

[@sharkrivermachine]

@@ade63dug I have the rivets. The original rivets on my roller are 3/32''. The problem is that the original rivets are drilled in the wrong place so I need to deal with extra holes in the smokebox.

Looks nice Ade thanks

[@howder1951]

Great video Ade , enjoyed every moment, lovely model. Cheers!

[@malliz1]

Thanks Ade nice one

[@colinsmith6280]

Great Series turning a toy as such to a scale model are you going to try pin stripe the black body work or a brass name plate for added detail, just a thought.

[@ade63dug]

I may do but "I have to draw the line somewhere". lol.Pun intended. Cheers Ade.

[@camerashy44]

It is looking great Ade! Your attention to detail is impressive.

[@joatmonuk]

Not into models, etc, but that's a nice-looking engine. I'm here for your lathe/machining expertise, and the upgrades added to the engine are definitely doing it justice. ❤

[@ade63dug]

Cool. I think it is difficult to find something new to show. sometimes these little projects can bring a few new tricks to mind . Just mixing it up . Cheers Ade.

[@steveparker8723]

Beautiful job Ade!

[@MarkDurbin]

Looking great!

[@RB-yq7qv]

Looks very nice. ⚙🔩🪛🔧🦺🦺🦺😃😃😃

[@milanmarkovic522]

Looking really nice. My question is now that you’ve put rubber tires on how are you going to transfer the drive from the flywheel to the rear wheel. From memory there should be a groove machined in the flywheel to match the groove in the rear wheel and a tightly wound spring around both the wheel and flywheel. Good luck,love your videos. 👍🏻

[@andydeacon5292]

If you look at the rear tyres they are slightly different - the one on the left has a groove in the centre of the tread for the drive belt.

[@milanmarkovic522]

@@andydeacon5292 ok thanks,I didn’t notice that 👍

[@rickymale8203]

Great video Ade. Why are there different tread patterns on the rear tyres though? Doesn’t bother me, just wondered mate

[@ade63dug]

not sure but that is how the new ones are from #Mamod . Cheers Ade

[@rickymale8203]

@@ade63dug buy another set and you’ll have two matching pairs😂. Tell you what, send me the link and I’ll get them for you!

[@christopherhutchinson8043]

😎 , where did you get the rubber tyres from ?

[@ade63dug]

ebay . Cheers Ade.
