tubalcain BUILDS A VERTICAL STEAM ENGINE w/spool valve Part 8

[@johnbazaar9999]

One of the best ways to learn something is to watch and listen to the old masters. Great videos. You remind me of my dad, a tool and die maker for 50 years. I wish he was still here to teach me more. However, you'll do nicely. 😊

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@davida1hiwaaynet]

Thanks! I really got a lot of enjoyment from seeing this go from "a boring useless piece of aliminium scrap" to a running functional engine. Seeing it run on live steam was amazing..... I love it. The sound is so different from air and it really is smooth.

[@mrpete222]

Mr Pete your enthusiasm shines through on your videos, along with your knowledge of your subject. With your easy going style and great camera work it makes me think i can do this. Thanks for taking the time to put this series together its most appreciated.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@scotthelton2135]

Thanks for taking the time to show in detail all the parts and how they work....as always I have really enjoyed this series of videos ...I have a daughter that is in mechanical engineering school I think this will be me and her a good project when she gets home for summer break

[@mrpete222]

Scott Helton Thanks for watching. It would be a good project. My son is an engineer for a garage door opener company. he has 3 patents.

[@MrUbiquitousTech]

Excellent series Mr Pete! Thanks for sharing it with us! That's a great running little engine! Yes! I remember that scene from African Queen, great movie!

Man I love these videos. Every time I see a new steam engine video posted by Mr. Pete I start checking youtube constantly waiting for the next installment.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@jaimevega4370]

Dear Mr. Pete: I have enjoyed these series ever so much. I hope to some day soon have the time to make my own little engine that could. However in the mean time I am content to seat back and enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@not2fast4u2c]

I enjoyed watching this series !!! Getting to see it running on steam was Awesome

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@FredMiller]

Another outstanding engine build series. I would love to see you build a double acting steam engine. I am currently in mid construction of a scratch built one (no plans). It is my first double acting and it will be a new challenge for me. Video when I complete it! Thanks Mr. Pete for a great inspirational series. And yes we are all boys at heart! Fred

[@ClaytonwFirth]

I was thinking that it would be fantastic to see Mr Pete make a double acting engine too. What are our odds ?

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@FredMiller]

Clayton Firth Hey Clayton. Check out my channel if you like home built model engines. I will be posting my double acting steamer build when I finish it later this month. Cheers! Fred

[@Dominic.Minischetti]

I thoroughly enjoyed all 8 parts! Awesome engine!

[@mrpete222]

Thanks

[@angelramos-2005]

I got it all finiched.MrPete and runs nicely.Thank you.

[@pierresgarage2687]

Hi mrpete, Really enjoyed that series, got lots of questions answered all along, one more project to add to my already too long "To do" list. Thanks a million, Pierre

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@aintgonnahappen]

Thank you Mr. Pete! Now I desperately want to build one of these things. Somewhere along the line I got hooked. Beautiful engine.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching-try it

[@johnmcdyer3315]

Lovely job Mr Pete especially for the younger ones to understand how a steam engine works ,whether they would have any interest or not is another thing but I enjoyed it

[@mrpete222]

John Mcdyer thanks

[@Ataraxia_Atom]

Thank you very much for the video series. I am planning on making one of these engines for my father and im sure he will greatly enjoy it.

[@tomgullan3565]

As usual this series has been a pleasure to watch. I have a few projects on the go at the moment so I may have a go at this at a later date. A big thank you from the North East of Scotland.

[@hmax1591]

I really enjoyed the series. Thank you.

[@mrpete222]

👍

[@garyc5483]

Excellent series mrpete. I enjoyed it very much. I have all the materials in a box ready to start this project as soon as I can. This will be a practice exercise for me as I have now acquired a set of Stuart 10V castings to machine immediately afterwards. I am also looking to build a beam engine from scratch one day. My wife hands me all the castout towels/sheets etc for the workshop. Being an engineer herself she understands exactly what I need which is great at birthdays and Christmas. regards from the UK

[@mrpete222]

[@howder1951]

Nice series, I enjoyed it very much. I guess I 'll get out to the shop and make one of those soon.It looks like a big improvement over a couple of wobblers I made a while back. Thanks TC.

[@mrpete222]

howder1951 THANKS

[@KM6VV]

Cute engine! The piston valve reminds me of one I build while still in High School. Plans were in Popular Science magazine, about '65. Wish I could find the issue.

[@Dunnsport]

Outstanding work Mr Pete! Thank you for your time and effort. I enjoyed every minute.

[@mrpete222]

Geoff Dunn thanks

[@Toolman22364]

Mad steam, sleepy steam. From the movie Sand Pebbles a grt movie with Steve McQueen. Great video mrpete.

[@rrangana11]

Smooth running little engine...Enjoyed watching this series. Want to build one these my self...

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@ErnieNoa3]

Looks like a lot of fun! I enjoyed this set of videos! Thanks for doing this.

[@myronmarcotte7072]

Thanks Mr Pete another great video series. This one really helped explain how a valving system works. Hopefully you will attempt to build a double acting next or a double piston. I really like the series format it gives me something to look forward to.

[@mrpete222]

THANKS FOR WATCHING

[@9amac]

Excellent series of videos. Iam a wood worker and tunner myself and I don't have any metal working machinery but I sure do find this very interesting and find myself wanting a metal lathe and mill.

[@specialks1953]

Enjoyed your full series on this steam engine build. Maybe some day I will get a lathe and some other metal working tools so I can build one. There are a lot of things I would like to do but I am only a few years behind you Tubalcain. Thanks!

[@kengoddard2357]

A lovely model Sir, and a very enjoyable series. Thank you for sharing your skills and passion with the world.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@roberthorner8494]

GREAT SERIES. REALLY ENJOYED LEARNING HOW IT'S DONE.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@ExplorerOffgrid]

An erg is the amount of work done by a force of one dyne exerted for a distance of one centimeter. In the CGS base units, it is equal to one gram centimeter-squared per second-squared (g·cm2/s2). It is thus equal to 10−7 joules or 100 nanojoules (nJ) in SI units. An erg is approximately the amount of work done (or energy consumed) by one common house fly performing one "push up", the leg-bending dip that brings its mouth to the surface on which it stands and back up. Awesome ...

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching--thats clear as mud

[@pbooth001]

I enjoyed it and you have my vote to do more.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@one4stevo]

Well Mr Pete this was a very enjoyable series, You convinced me to build a engine just like yours. Hope Toly dose some drawings in metric too. Thank you for filming and sharing your work. much appreciated. It's a beautiful little engine.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@bobauer4359]

Mr Pete, Very interesting and enjoyable, I hope to build one myself someday. Thanks for sharing your vast knowledge.

[@ErnieNoa3]

Looks like a lot of fun. I enjoyed the set of videos very much! Thanks for doing them.

[@ramosel]

Thank you! Wonderful series.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@adamkenworthy2421]

Excellent as ever Mrpete, I've enjoyed the series. The set screw on the flywheel is not a grub screw though, the screw you used on the eccentric is what we refer to as the grub because of its appearance.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@markbartlett8519]

Proper job, I enjoyed the series. Will have to have a go myself.

[@mrpete222]

Mark Bartlett thanks

[@SteamerEdge]

Great series as always.please keep em coming

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@BillChennault]

mrpete, that was wonderful! I enjoyed each and every video. I will build this engine and use your "what to do when you ruin parts" technique as necessary.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@MarkGarth]

Great series of videos; really enjoyable and informative. I've got to give this a go.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@garethjones6342]

I believe the call them "grub screws'' because they don't usually have a head, and that type looks like a little grub!

[@petefell2206]

Hi, I enjoyed every second of that Mr Pete222

[@mrpete222]

Very good work man ,,,,i love ur videos and the way that u explaine what u do ,

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@WindersRanger]

Very nice sir very nice. You know you talk about how quiet steam is. I posted a video of Joe Scales Mikado live steam locomotive that he let me run here in Florida. At the end of the video we were putting the engine to be and doing a little last minute switching. Aside from having too much water in the boiler. At 85 pounds of steam she was just as quiet as a church mouse.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@richardvena3007]

Another great Mr Pete Video. High schoolers would benefit from dropping the iPhones and learning a few of these skills.

[@mrpete222]

Richard Vena thanks

[@jcknives4162]

This was one of my favorites! Nicely done sir!

[@mrpete222]

Jeff Conti Thanks for watching

[@1musicsearcher]

Another great set of videos. Tune in next week when Mr Peterson builds a silent jet engine. (lol)

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching - lol

[@philvittetoe8240]

Mr. Pete, Fantastic series. How about a "mini prony brake" to determine the hp output of your engine. It would be "fun" and almost as interesting as the power developed by a fly doing pushups. Keep them coming. Phil

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching. Watch the next build where I load it with a dynamo

[@psirider]

thank you i really enjoyed the videos. made me go from not much interest in small steam engines to trying to figure out how to build one into a small model boat. maybe a twin cylinder hmm

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@4437dags]

What a wonderful project. I will be making this once Ive gathered some more tools A+

[@mrpete222]

Great video. Successful outcome as was of course expected. I hope to try to build one of these this summer or before. Thanks for the video.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@Blackcountrysteam]

Over here in the UK the term 'grub' is used for screws without a head mostly they would be of the Allen type but cheaper one's would be of softer material and have a simple screwdriver slot.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@BillChennault]

I had to stop the video and comment on the guidance for ruining parts. EXCELLENT!!!

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@MySqueakyfoot]

Mr. Pete - Thank You for sharing. Together with my teen-age son we are building our first Vertical Steam Engine. You are our teacher, our mentor and our newly found friend thanks to You Tube. I'm a senior Jet Refueling Technician, and Dave is a sophmore in high-school where he scores the highest in Math and Computer Coding. We're somewhere between parts 2 and 3 right now, but we're determined and always looking ahead ( if you know what I mean ), and although we spend more hours talking about the project than actually working on it, two questions have come to mind : Do you think she'll run on jet fuel ? and where can we mount a USB port so we can plug in the engine analyzer when it comes time to adjust the timing ? Now of course you know..."we're kidding" about the fuel and the usb port, but we're very serious about the project and working with you again in the future

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching and tongue in cheek comment

[@traumamedic4ever213]

Very good series!

[@mrpete222]

search4robfen thanks

[@williefleete]

I call them grub screws as well. It's because the screw looks a bit like a small worm or insect larva

[@jimidee100]

I had a friend, may he R I P who was a retired engineer that worked for GE who liked to build steam engines the last one he showed me would turn out 24000 RPM. He had dozens of them all built with just a drill press and hand tools.

[@mrpete222]

Too bad he did not show them on a video

[@RyanWeishalla]

Nice video series Mr. Pete.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@joohop]

Thanks for watching

[@ketchumdan9095]

Thank you

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for watching

[@lugosky02]

Mr Pete awesome video. I have two questions, 1. Why do you prefer the engine to run clockwise as opposed to counterclockwise? And 2. Is there a reason you prefer steam over air in these engines?

[@mrpete222]

lugosky02 thanks
