I've built three of Elmer's engines, and been inclined to think "that's enough". Seeing your work on this one makes me think "well, maybe one more someday". Very nice work! :ThumbsUp:

I have now finished my Elmer's Pumping Engine.

With the heavier flywheels I can run it very slow. Would love to post a video, but Ytube no longer works for me with Safari on my Mac.
Will have to try another video host site.

As soon as this infernal heat wave comes to an end, will strip it down and paint it
