Mamod SR1a Steam Roller Repair

I purchased this Mamod steam roller in like new condition. The first time that I tried to use it the firebox fell off. An obvious manufacturing defect, i set it aside and finally decided to repair it.

G'day Steve. Great to see you back here. Job well done. The only thing I would have ,done would be to assemble the Model first to make sure it was sitting squarely on it's Rollers.

[@sharkrivermachine]

You didn't see it in the video but I actually had the alignment marked, I had it apart and back together several times, Thank you for watching and commenting.

Good one, Steve.
And forget to press record on the camera never happens to me... well...

[@sharkrivermachine]

Sometimes you can reshoot a scene but once the part is assembled that is not a reasonable option. Thank you for watching and commenting.

even real rollers have headstock problems. wish mine was as easy to fix.!

[@sharkrivermachine]

Isn't this a real roller? LOL Thanks for stopping by, I wish that I could help out with your real roller.

[@RustyInventions-wz6ir]

Very nice engine

[@sharkrivermachine]

Thank you very much!

[@bcbloc02]

Surprised you didn’t solder it too.

[@sharkrivermachine]

The smoke box is pot metal no soldering to that. Thank you for your comments and support.

Thank you for the sub. Your channel was recommended by one of the channels that I follow. Can't remember which one. I will be posting the second part of the Steam Roller video next week. Time has gotten away from me and I have been working on home projects for that last few weeks.
