    Joe,
    that was an amazing journey and has to be the best finished D10V I have ever seen. As I said when I sent you the kit I have seen lots of 10Vs built on CZcams but as far as I know nobody has built the twin cylinder D10V. As usual museum quality build but with lots of tips and novel methods thrown in for good measure. I have built one and wish mine had been to that standard. The pleasure in your voice as you built it proved sending it to you was a good move and I certainly got as much pleasure watching the progress as you appeared to from constructing it. A fantastic job and the usual Joe Pie quality. Thank you for the pleasure the video series bought me and made sending the kit a good move. Keep safe and healthy.

    The way it runs so slowly and sounds so regular is a big part of my enjoyment. The way the parts were machined and the logical train of thought to make sure it’s accurate is just wonderful to watch. There can’t be too many built as well as this.

  • @richardsweet7452
    @richardsweet7452 Před rokem +1

    Absolutely beautiful work. There are much more efficient machines now days but those old devils would run forever with very little maintenance. I worked over 40 years in a steam power plant where we had a few reciprocating pumps, turbine driven pumps and steam turbine generators. Good to see the tradition carried on. Thanks Joe.

  • @carlbukowsky1931
    @carlbukowsky1931 Před rokem +2

    You definitely need to include your makers mark and the date on this engine. A little artwork on the steam chest covers would be my choice. Well Done Joe! I enjoyed watching from start to finish!

  • @nutgone100
    @nutgone100 Před rokem +2

    The flywheel sits low because it’s a marine engine. They’re designed to sit as low as possible to keep the weight down in the boat & the flywheel will sit between the wooden bearers that the engine sits on.
    I’ve restored a few vintage Stuart Turner marine 2-stroke engines & they all had low flywheels too.
    Beautiful work as always Joe.

    Joe my friend called me after rebuilding his 1905 White Steam Car engine. I heard it run on air over the phone I think I was first one to hear it after him. Black Bess his 1905 White took first in 2014 Concour De Elegance. You should have a permanent grin after building that! A true Masterpiece you have built!

  • @bh.boilers
    @bh.boilers Před rokem +1

    Good morning Joe, I note the "exposed pin" watchers won the day, I shall submit to the popular opinion as it all looks excellent. On the timing of the steam admission and exhaust there are lots of very good old books on this subject, once set up at 90 degrees the fine adjustment is called Lap and lead, most vertical engines have a little extra lead to compensate the inertia on the down stroke. Thanks for the build. Ray.

    Nice job Joe! Not all of them start that easily or sound that good, I've known a few squeaky clunkers in my time!
    Now you really ought to build a boiler! It's not that hard, and I'd love to see you tackle the essential gubbins that go with a live-steam setup (in-line oilers, water injector, valves, seperators etc) there's some good material there for future videos, as often the supporting equipment need tighter tolerances than the engine itself.
    Whatever the future holds, it'll be worth watching i'm sure!

  • @allanrichards3752
    @allanrichards3752 Před rokem

    What a superb engine and build standard. It runs like a Swiss watch. Keith Appleton always tries to get the steam or air to enter the cylinders just before TDC of the piston. This gives a cushioning effect to the piston and makes the engine run a little quieter, especially on engines with a little wear. With the precise tolerances you have I don't see you getting any knocking. Keith also has good success using a silicone O rings as a piston ring. If you feel like playing a bit you could make some pistons with O rings to give it a try.

    Good morning from Oz.
    I watched this over breakfast, an amazing project completion.
    It has been a pleasure to watch the many episodes in its production and completion that I have enjoyed immensly.
    I am a few years older than you, born in the late 40's when we had steam trains and many industries still used steam engines for their power. Brisbane's water supply was pumped by steam engines till around the mid 1940's, country saw mills had steam engines to run their mills. I still love to see the few remaining steam trains that operate on tourist outings and hear the characteristic sound of a steam engine running.
    I can fully understand your joy at seeing it completed and running.
    How does this model scale to the others you have made eg like the lathe and drill press? It would be nice to have them set up, compete with line shafts, in a display.
    Well done Joe.
    Regards Dennis.

    Very good serious, so professional. I machined a Sturet #4 when I was in high school. I still run it It got me my first job in a machine shop.

    Great job! I'm about to build my first steam engine model soon, so this series gave me a ton of helpful ideas and techniques.

    Thank you Joe for another great build! Honestly you are amazing at how easy it appears these projects are for you and how accurate they turn out. . Just goes to show your knowledge and expertise. And your customers are lucky to have you doing their work. Gatlin gun next?

    As usual, a beautiful machine built by an expert machinist. I don’t know if I would paint it. I kinda like the raw metal. Maybe an oil wipe on the cast parts to keep them from rusting?
    One thing Keith Appleton does after an engine build or overhaul is to crank up the air pressure and run the engine at warp speed for a bit to make sure parts don’t fly off. But this engine looks great running slow.
