No matter how advanced machinery gets, nothing is more satisfying than watching these magnificent machines chug along.
Dad told me before he passed. The flat belt Pully had a slight ridge in the center that is what kept the belt on. He also told me the twist in a flat belt was to change direction only. My mom's first maytag had a kick start engine. Dad was born in January of 1923 grew up on a farm. My grand father had several pieces of equipment that run with a flat belt. Merry Christmas!
Grew Up Around the old machinery and your dad is correct about the "Crown" on a Flat Belt Pulley Which centers the belt on it
The Twist is Purely The Mechanics Of Direction IE: Rotation
To which your dad is also correct
Show god bless mick australia. Happy new year. Ps show...... i smile i wait. God bless
Good for the them ,bless them .🥰
Figure 8 changes direction not twist in the belt.
@@lawrencefranck9417 here in Kansas all the old timers call it a twist!!
NGL, I was born in 81, my grandmother used an outdoors gas powered washer until I was close to 10.
I love talking with old fellers like this about engines from the old days. They have so much knowledge from a different time.
What in tarnation
It’s cool to See the old stuff still alive
"kids these days won't work for nothing!" meanwhile at 14:00 we see no less then 3 kids cranking a sugar cane press just because they can.
I would love to see what a semi-truck built with a few of those big hit&miss engines might look like!
Lol I started that, the kids love it and the adults love watching it
The firetruck you showed is a American LaFrance Ariel which were manufactured in Elmira NY until the early 1980's. As was already mentioned, the Brockway you viewed next was a product of Brockway Trucks of Cortland NY until the mid 1970's (at which point the production was moved to Puerto Rico ((I think)) and continued or a short time). What you may not know is depending on the year, these two trucks may be "Related". At different times Brockway Truck built chassis for Amereican LaFrance (back when New York State was good for something...) as both companies were located in the Southern Tier of Western New York. Many older American LaFrance firetrucks have their roots in Brockway.
Mack bought Brockway, but Brockway's employees didn't want jobs.
This video was great man. Love seing these old machines still being alive. And you can tell the ol'man enjoys explaining you the stuff. "Something like that" 😅 too bad i didnt know about this channel sooner, great content. And hello from Norway btw.
Such a cool show! Thanks for letting us tag along👍🏻
I think this is one of my fav videos. My family used to volunteer at a big tractor and steam engine museum when i was growing up. Seen and operated alot of the stuff in this video.
Very cool episode Bruce, that Old BROCKWAY is from a farm In South Deerfield MA, just around the corner from me. Very cool to see it restored and in Florida
Watching these old motors run is pretty satisfying. The cintrifiigal governors and the way the valves are timed is really slick. Let's not forget many are running after more than a hundred years without much more than a cleaning up and lube.
and for their working life it was non stop for at least 60+ year of hard labor the fact they survived at all is amazing and proof of quality
They were basically reworked steam engines (not exactly but pretty close) Everything was overbuilt so they just lasted for ever.
The coolest thing about all this is the guy that owns the equipment. He is preserving history and teaching new generations where we came from. I was disappointed that there wasn't any mention of the dedication to veterans on the 4 door Mac. Shame on you!! Our vets deserve better.
V12 Detroit sounds amazing. Loved hearing the supercharged/turbocharged version of that engine on oil rigs and semi trucks at my grandfather’s company when I was younger.
That was awesome! Thanks for taking us along! 😎✌️ You should definitely make a "will it run" on that Mack.
32hp with 18,000 pounds of torque.
Thanks for sharing this old iron. Reminds me of my grandfather.
My father n law has like 12 or 13 hit/miss engines. Such a cool piece of history. None of his are that big but. He takes them to show all the time.
I grew up going to hit and miss engine and tractor shows with my father. I’ll Never forget those sounds. Good times.
Love the Huckster. Looks like a good time. The owner so cool!! Those hit and miss engines are alot fun .
That's a beast of a machine. I'd love to take that to a drive thru 😂 also nice shifting once you got that truck to run . Those old transmissions had no synchros so you had to know what you were doing. You did a nice job I didn't hear you grind the gears at all . I bet I couldn't do that . That firetruck was beautiful 😍
Every Memorial Day my family attend the Heston steam show in Michigan.❤❤❤ mind blowing power and torque
Brockway was the first builder of heavy duty trucks (1912-1977), and were built in Cortland, New York. Mack bought the company in 1956. They were popular in mining operations for hauling coal and iron ore.
Brockway Trucks are synonymous with heavy haul!
Great video Bruce love all the old single cylinder engines. Thanks for sharing stay safe Bruce.
At 17:55 reminds me of the model A truck my grand dad had in the 60's that he used to haul the tin cans and bottles out into the woods behind his house. Just a frame, home made wood bed and half a cab. Remember riding along almost bouncing out out my seat as he drove that thing over logs and rocks. Could have been thrown out and died any second but it was so much fun I didn't care.
Excellent video. Thanks for taking us along.
These are all the perfect machines to have to live off grid now a days. These hit and miss engines are so fuel efficient it’s crazy they can run all day on a gallon of gas if not less and having the belts to run a whole building full of equipment is key. I’d love to have one so I could find old equipment like this stuff
Man,… this Behemoth is simply amazing
My friend family comes from K2 mountain area second highest mountain in the world. There are many stone mills for corn. Wheat and rice flour grinding run by water from the mountain. According to him the problem with stone mills is people use to loose teeth by the time they are in fifty cause there is stone present in the flour grinding there teeth. Most of them converted to newer style grinding using water as power source.
We had an engine like that red one lunger when I was a kid. We had it on a timber frame with a long belt going to a long shaft with a saw blade on one end and a big flywheel on the other. There was tilt table to load fire wood to length. I remember it was 3.5 HP and 675 RPM. I used to run it myself starting when I was 12. We had two sticks made so it would hold the compression release and I’d pull the stick once I got it spinning by pulling on the wide belt. This was in the mid 1960s.
That looks like a great event, lots of cool stuff there
It’s a great event, you oughta make it down one of these years, I volunteer there, and it’s a magical day
Thank you very much
Thank you, I truly enjoyed this video!! I like watching all your videos but I like old trucks!! Thank you again, enjoy your day, be good and God Bless!!
13:20 The Wheel of Juicing - This is where kids younger than Conan was that are captured in village raids.
Those who have seen Conan the Barbarian (1982) will get it.
Hank Hill would love this
Hamilton farms Hank ...??
Yep... that there exhaust flame system would definitely count as a "propane accessory"!
I think I commented on wrong vid one was propane powerd truck
Love how the spark plug is aiming at the crotch!...
Aww... God bless 'em all. Those are great people.❤️💯
Very cool way to keep an old survivor alive and being seen! Kudo's for pulling off a wild ride, even if it only does single digit speeds!
Worked on many old slow speed cooper Bessemer natural gas compressors for boardwalk pipeline partners. Still in service smashing gas today and are still some of the most reliable compressors they have
Those belt drives a lot of the time, also have an angle either way with the high spot in the centre, which helps keep the belt centred
Love the old hit and miss engines.❤
He's got some cool stuff there. That car that Bruce drove reminds me of the Beverly Hillbillies
Very beautiful machines. Thank you for this production.
I'm in my upper 40s and I vaguely remember, when my dad drove an Old brockway truck and it was a yard shifter truck,, they used at the company he worked for back in the day and they had old model Autocar and Mack trucks they used daily but would have to drive a Brockway, whenever they were having their trucks worked on
Love that I grew up with my grandpa doing a lot of this stuff wish I was able to go see this
I saw the 4-door mack at a gas station in defuniak springs FL one day, i couldn't help but stop and take a look at it
It was cool seeing that ole cane grinder with Savannah Ga on it, I'm about 65 miles away from there, good ole cane juice and syrup!!!
Brockway was where horse wagons were motorized and turned into trucks... Cortland, NY. My uncle used to weld the cab roofs on back in the early 1970’s...
would love if you got a hit and miss engine thats rotting away from somewhere, and get it running again. that would be a cool will it start.
That gentleman is awesome I’d love to see his collection and hang out there that truck is awesome somebody had a great imagination to piece together that lol thanks for sharing
That was Amazing🤩 Thank you for showing all that👍👍👍
Your friend wearing cowboy hat is an American treasure. Reminds me of Joe Ersland my friend and mentor. Great video!
thankyou Bruce for this video i love the oldschool engines etc
Really like these videos of all this antique equipment very cool
Truly amazing, I love old 🗝️ equipment like that
I always wanted to see a machine shop running off the belt system. I'm a machinist
There is a youtuber with a steam powered machine shop all run with leather belts
David Richards channel here on YT has a working belt driven machine shop
Excellent. Thanks Bruce
Pretty awesome seeing that old Galion road grader that was made in my home town of Galion, OH
Matt at Diesel creek CZcams channel has a video series on the restoration of one.
@@philgrimsey3637 I'm definitely going to need to check that out. Thank you
33hp but it's hard to say what it would take to stop those two fly wheels from spinning.
34 draft horses lol
Thats the first time that I've seen a restored WR-9. It looked great.
Holy crap what a great video. Would have loved to have been there. Excellent camera footage Brian I think your boss should invest in a drone for ya.
The "CHUG CHUG"cool thing to enjoy !!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Love how you have to start it standing right against the rear dual tire LOL very safe
I'm 63 every Saturday was mom and her sisters would meet at my Grandparents house where the gas powered washer was. My family made sorghum molasses every year I use to ride the mule to squeeze the cane.
Excellent video -- you are right about those stones being old -- try couple 100 Million years!
So cool Adams Tenn is Mecca , been Elnora Ind , have steam driven machine shop , and old Page dragline engine they fire up!
I saw that one little kid get close to that running engine. Yrs ago my neighbor had old engine's like these. He left one running and I saw a kid around 4 walking up to it. I jumped off a deck at least 15 ft high ran to stop the kid from sticking his arm in it. Fun but dangerous!
I'm not even a truck fan but damn am I glad I clicked on this video! Amazing stuff!
Exposição legal. Motores e tratores antigos, todos funcionando. Parabéns!!
Great job. Thank you 😊
I love the Beverly Hillbillies truck 😂 I wonder if it would be legally able to go on the road?
really enjoyed the vintage engines cars an trucks keep the good vidoes coming bro merry Christmas to you an your family
@Mr_Bruce_Wilson what about bro
Glad to see you back making videos again
Great video. I am about to start making a hit n miss. Probably 1/4 scale not sure yet.. Thanks for showing.
Regards from UK.
Steve.
They have some awesome equipment!!
That was awesome to watch thanks
That homemade truck was cool needs a big kenworth emblem at the front.lol
I'm glad to see they run these with out any guards on the moving parts, it helps clean up the gene pool
Some really neat stuff there!
Dang Bruce wish I was there I’ll have to make sure to come next year. See you in January at Flywheelers again hopefully.
Great video buddy love them old trucks and the machine was just amazing
Funny how 120 years ago the made stuff that still works in 2022. Can't say the same thing about a 2022 SUV.
Or a 2000 cellphone
Super Cool Bruce Thank you for sharing please do a will it start on the Mack.
This video was so good I like this kind of video so cool see old equipment run back old Day
Great video! Thanks.
I love how dangerous everything used to be.
That's a fine Tempest (66-67) in the background at about 14 minutes. Used to have one the exact same color.
you guys would like the Buckley old engine show here in northern Michigan its over 200 acres of old engines and tractors.
Our club North Florida Antique Engine Association will have a good show the Second weekend of March 2023 at Circle R Ranch in Lake City Florida. Flywheel engines , Tractors other old Machines of the days. Come on out.
Man, i tell you what, thats the most west Virginia lookin critter I've ever seen. ! 🤪👍
Turn that corn into damn shine son.
Great video bud really enjoyed looking at those old machines! Where in florida did ol' boy have that event?
Good old fashioned fun!!
Wow you have re invented a 1914 International 10-20 Titan, a crude tractor based on a similar donkey engine made by IH with twin fly wheels and convection cooling. Modern features are pneumatic rubber tyres, and a better transmission using a car back axle.
That's the most terrifying 32HP I have ever seen!
I've got to get one of these! 👍
That red and white Brockway 361 is a sharp rig, surprising to see one clear down in Florida they were mostly northeastern trucks with a good many making it to WV and eastern KY as well. A Mack is nice but they’re no Brockway….those trucks were built so well Mack had to kill the brand to try and stop it’s own plummeting sales…and they still got bought out by Renault. That old RL-600 Mack isn’t as old as it looks, the gray interior means it’s a 1986 at the absolute oldest, that’s when they switched over (more or less…there are a few 86’s with tan interiors and the old 3 spoke wheel and a few 85’s with the gray interior and black 2 spoke wheel.
Happy new year. Love this. To much about you. But show exporing again. Love it god bless 2023. Thank you happy new year to your family.... and company. Mick australia )
that corn mill looks like an old Appomattox model..miss the old machine shop at Appomattox Iron Works
a very cool clip, keep the clips coming
I was kind of surprised to see that oil field engine on the Ford truck frame was a 2 stroke gas engine. 2 stroke diesels are pretty common for that period (i.e. Fairbanks Morse), but gas engines are kind of rare. I wonder if it originally ran on natural gas from the well?😉
That's wicked cool!
