    my friend you need to STOP using your hand as a hammer. Believe me you will pay dearly in your later years. I am 66 and a retired millwright and made this same mistake. I pay in pain every day now. Do as you will but you have been told ! Stop trying to move that wrench by hitting with your hand please. Love your videos !

      I’m in my mid 60s hands are fine but my apprenticeship taught me to use the correct tools. Hammers hit things. Hands hold hammers. Use a soft face hammer to persuade spanners or better use a longer spanner.

      I heard this all the time and now I’m 38 and hands and wrists hurt. Nerve pain in the my right hand. I ran Bridgeport mills and slammed the wrench to release collets more than I can remember. Did the same in construction slamming pry bars and other tools all the time.

    You simply got to admit these old mechanical marvels were engineered and built by absolute geniuses. I mean, look at the simplicity of the regulator mechanism. Nowadays, to replace a simple joint and a weight, they would install a myriad of sensors, circuit boards and microcontrollers filled to the brim with opaque software using last generation planned obsolescence driven design... Anyway, thank you for the excellent video!

      It's about the peak of what can be done with "just your hands" so to speak. You are in control of every step needed to fix, run, and build these things. Once you start needed electronics to be involved, I think you start attracting different crowds that like working with those things. But if someone wants something that doesn't need any programming, and you can build replacement parts yourself, this is it.

    Love watching and learning from your vids. I remember when i was at horticultural college in 1982 that we used two rotovators. One was a merry tiller ( 1947 ) and the other was a much earlier model that was diesel powered, a real faff to start, ( 1909 ): which involved offering a paraffin soaked lit rag on the end of a drain rod into an open cavity to encourage the diesel to ignite and cranking the starter at the same time. The funny thing was that although a bugger to start, the older machine, once started was much easier to control and didn't spin and dig itself into the heavy clay soil we were working on, like the much later merry tiller did.

    I have a reverence and respect for these old stationary engines that I believe stemmed from visits to my great Uncles’s Farm as a small child. I was allowed to stand close and watch as a 5 year old, the milking machine that was powered by a stationary engine mounted outside the milking parlour. It was started twice a day and I was fascinated by the regular popping sound and whirring fly wheel, connected by belt drive to the pumps and cooling machines inside the Milking Parlour. The rhythm and sounds captivated and excited me, being totally unaware the inherent dangers of getting too close to the exposed machinery. Health and safety considerations were unheard of in those days. At the end of milking I remember it was never easy to actually get the engine to start or stop, valves would be turned off, but somehow the engine would splutter and start up again much to the aggravation of my uncle who cursed it furiously. It seemed to have a life of its own. That was over 70 + years ago, when life was much simpler then and I also remember suddenly being aware of the birds singing again around the Farm yard after the engine had stopped.

    Growing up in the 50's and 60's in Newfoundland my grand father had a 5 HO Acadia engine in his boat. They were made in Nova Scotia and we called them put puts. The most beautiful sound is a put putt boat echoing off the cliffs of Bell Island in the morning, fog just makes it all the better. 32 foot open boat, 5 HP would do the same speed empty or with 3000 lbs of squid. Made no difference.

      I would love to have a proper hot bulb engine. I remember in the 1960s in Moss [Noway] listening to the fishing boats coming in with their chu-chi-chu sounds and seeming very low revs.
      Seeing the beautiful but really simple engineering taken to pieces and made to work is so enjoyable for me, who grew up on a farm in Herefordshire.
      We had three tractors in those days. A Massey Ferguson 65 [203 Perkins], a Fordson Major with a six cylinder Perkins, and an MF 35 of the old four cylinder type that was dreadful for hard starting in the cold. All of these had CAV diesel pumps and injectors, which were definitely only serviceable by experts in the diesel service shop!

    This whole video goes to show that machinery CAN be made simple, especially so that a person with average mechanical skills can maintain it. I used to be an auto mechanic (pre-1984) when car were much simpler. Nowadays, you need a brain surgeon to repair them. I see no reason why a car cannot be made simply for a person who simply wants to go from point A to B, one that s/he with limited income can maintain at the lowest cost. Pollution> I was able to tune a 1971 3-K engine so that it passed CA emissions, so no one can tell me that it can't be done. Good, informative video. A real object lesson.
