  • Apologies for a month's gap since my last video - I've succumbed to yet another virus; this one having been brought home from my wife's school.
    Having finally managed to get the Chronilogical Numerator working, it's time to get on with preparing to attend the Whitby Steampunk Weekend - 10th & 11th February 2024. Come and see my steampunk machines working in all their glory! I look forward to meeting you...

    Wonderful work , I love your moments of joy despite the mote of dust.

      Mote, what a great word, thank you! It just seems inevitable how ever much care I take, that there will be something unpleasant making an appearance once I can't get at it!

      Credit to Carl Sagn " The pale blue dot". Love your passion and patience, I have a pile of old gauges from Ogden's Tobacco Liverpool power house that I hope to bring back to life, should confuse the chap from Scottish Power. Q; are you in contact with Tim Hunkin ?. Best, Woffy @@steamhead

      @@WOFFY-qc9te 'The pale blue dot'. Apparently many of the scientists at NASA were dead against wasting Voyager's resources to get it to turn in order to take that most memorable picture. I'm so pleased management saw sense!
      It's very exciting you have a load of gauges from Ogden's Tobacco. Good luck with bringing them back to life - do keep me posted.
      I do love Time Hunkin's recent CZcams videos, I also love the ones he made for the BBC in the 80s. I used to show them to my secondary school DT students - they brought engineering alive!

    Nice to see you back.
    I had a cunning plan when I rewired my bathroom - I put the switch just _outside_ the door so I could have the sort I wanted. 🙂

      Thank you - I'm so pleased to be back sans virus. I'm pleased to hear you got your desired bathroom switch by putting it outside the bathroom. Switches are good!

    Regarding your lovely 1933 light switches, the wood 'panel' they're fixed to (and that your marvellous machines are usually mounted on) is properly called a pattress. The modern world is sadly devoid of pattresses! 🐘

    • @steamhead
      @steamhead  Před 4 měsíci

      Absolutely. Just compare a horrible white plastic light switch with a fabulous bakelite and ceramic knife switch mounted on a wooden patress! No competition.

    Just discussing with you. Odd bits that need masking for paint, I like tin foil.

    • @steamhead

      That's a really good idea, thank you. Tin foil will definately be making an appearance at some point in future videos.
