Not only you are methodical and precise, but you have a therapeutical voice. I guess I guy like you either would never get upset in life or would in fact fight with the same flat, soft tone of voice... something I will never possess. Bravo!

[@derekblake9385]

Your far more clued up than you realise, great videos

[@learningturningmetal]

Hey, thanks Derek. Very much appreciated. All the best. Andrew

[@robertoswalt319]

Very nice, these videos are providing me with the courage to try to make an engine on my own.

[@learningturningmetal]

Hi Robert - I'm really pleased that they are giving you some inspiration. I'm a total novice, so if I can do it I'm sure you can. Good luck, and let me know if you take up the challenge. Cheers Andrew

Hi Andrew, I've just stumbled across your series of videos by accident and really enjoying them. I'm the guy in ME forum who posted the valve chest reply under the name Gas Mantle. I also build small steam engines and like you I have limited tooling and experience so it's refreshing to see another 'beginner' having a go :-) Cheers - Peter.

[@learningturningmetal]

Hi Peter. 'Stumbled' is probably a very good summary, as I struggle to find my own videos if try to search for them! Many thanks for the advice via the ME forum - I really do appreciate that. I see you have some videos of your small steam engines - so I will check them out ASAP. Thanks for subscribing. Cheers. Andrew

[@RustyInventions-wz6ir]

Very nice work. I want to start building engines soon and actually gets quite a confidence boost watching your builds. I am a little scared to be honest. He he. Thanks

[@learningturningmetal]

Thanks Rusty. If you are new to model engineering you could always start by making a little Wobbler engine. That would help build up basic skills and you could have a little engine running in a few days. You could then go onto mire complicated engines from there. Cheers Andrew

Very satisfying mate👍

[@learningturningmetal]

Thanks Ricky! 👍

[@jiggseystrasser]

Good Morning . Another eagerly awaited installment for the S50 and great as usual . I like your newly invented bushing HA HA . Your meeting the challenge and more, keep up the great work . Cheers !

[@learningturningmetal]

Hi Greg - it's slowly taking shape. Have a great day. Andrew

[@garyarmstrong4597]

Good job

[@rayfalcone6897]

Andrew,i admire you inthusiasum,you inspire me,i really like your explanations with the reference to dimensions

[@learningturningmetal]

Thanks Ray - I try to include the dimensions in the hope that it might help others like me to have a go. Cheers Andrew

[@johnhickling2059]

Hi Andrew thanks for posting this I'm in the beginning of making a workshop and doing the same very helpful cheers John

[@learningturningmetal]

Hi John. No worries. Good luck with the workshop. All the best. Andrew

[@RustyInventions-wz6ir]

Thanks yeah that is the plan. Building a few wobble engines. My wife gave me a kit for the V10 engines, but I need practice and well still don’t have a milling machine, so it will prove to be a challenge. He he.

[@rayfalcone6897]

another nice video, thank you Andrew,see you next time.Ray

[@learningturningmetal]

Thanks Ray - Hopefully the next video will show the making of the cylinder covers. Not too sure how to go about it at the moment - so thinking time! Cheers Andrew

[@daveticehurst4191]

Andrew, whenever possible have your topslide / compound so that the movable part is flush with the end. That is to say have the minimum overhang which will give your toolpost much more rigidity, this will benefit you greatly when parting off. I notice than in most of your videos it looks to be overhanging by at least 1 ".

[@learningturningmetal]

Hi Dave - I've learnt a lot since making that video. I now try to remember to reduce the overhang - but I still don't remember every time. Thanks for the advice. Andrew

[@myma84]

Absolutely, you deserve for much more subs.

[@learningturningmetal]

Thanks mate!

It's really frustrating how many strange quantities the imperial measurement system contains. It seems to me like in the stone age when there was no decimal system and they didn't know any better.

[@learningturningmetal]

Yeah, one of my first jobs was as a computer programmer at a foundary. And yes, computers had been invented then! What a pain dealing with pounds, hundredweights and tons. The good old days.🤣🤣
