Hi guys. Its been a few years since I posted last but I pop in for a look every once in a while. Nothing new in the engine dept. I might pull my 6/1 heavy wheels out and finish the rebuild (head was done 10 years ago). It is a rad model. The 16/2 in my avitar still lives here.
Actually there is a new one, an FR1 with a 6000w 110/220 direct coupled.
Its been a tough few years taking care of my ailing Mom who passed in January. Life can start again now so if any engine work is underway I will surely post it.
Take care all! 👋

I know where there is a 3 1/2 with an original drip can!

Check out my youtube "contaucreek" channel for exhaust music. If slowed down and not loaded its about as loud as a dog panting. Carry on a conversation without yelling.

Yes there is an AVR on the generator.

My new to me homebuilt genset has digital v/hz readouts. Load free is 115/118 on the legs and 60hz +-. Does a slight rpm change effect voltage or just frequency?

Those crates will never be seen again. I hope they dont hit the burn pile. Dimensions and details for the record would be great!

See the lady on the way out 

Doesn't seem like there was much concern about storage deterioration 

When the hammer fell on the Crossley piano base slide valve engine last year it was at $330,000U.S. plus 10% buyer uptick. I venture to say the premium paid to secure that engine would probably buy most of the Listers at Iowa.
