@Conan568 Amen to that, I have a few tools like that too. Some I inherited from my Father that are still in very good condition, (like a John Deer tractor) they might last forever if you take care of them.
I go to all the shows around Wisconsin. I enjoy the gas and steam engine shows, antique tractor shows and the thresherees!! A buddy of mine has two of these hit & miss engines!! Them lil buggers are heavy as hell!!!!

@t8trtot Yeah, I don't know why he didn't do something about that. Some put things in the water to clean it up.

What a beautiful old engine! Back then, they built them with a sense of style. They are works of art as well as great machines.

I own an 100+ year old power hammer.
They just don't make things like this anymore.
They last too long to be profitable.

With all the other eniges firing ion the backround I can hardly pick out when the T&M is firing. Sounds like an antique clock shop!

You are so right! I can't get "the sound" in some places at this show... The place is just alive with engines!
