Awesome! Thanks Sid! ☺️

Lol. Thanks Brian! ☺️☺️☺️

Thanks John. ☺️ i just always keep One eye open and one eye out. I also got a perfectly good made in Japan by Ariana in the 1960s classical guitar. It was covered with grime and the strings were literally rotten. It had not been played in decades evidently. It was written inside that it was first purchased via Boosley and Hawkes in South Africa! Anyway, I got it also for five dollars, gently scrubbed it clean, spent $12 on Ernie Ball black nylon strings and it is beautiful to play. It now sits next to my Fender classical from 1981.

@Terrys-Steam-and-Cobi Awesome! Another great deal. Some years ago, I brought a beautiful looking guitar at a garage sale for $75, I forget the brand but it was a respected name. Anyway, it played awful. I put new strings on it and did my best to improve the playability, but no luck. I ended up donating it to a church yard sale, but with a note about its issues. You are just amazingly lucky!

@@johnlazar7582 i do seem to sniff out the good stuff. Lol

Thanks Hunter. It is neat. ☺️

I was very lucky. It’s a great runner. ☺️

Awesome Craig!! Hmmmm I’m sure someone has made a Lego sawmill, but connected to live steam??…

Thanks Steve! It was a lucky find. ☺️

Yeah, the automotive paper is a very good ideaSteven. I’d have to buy some (and following your tip probably will for future use). I wanted to challenge myself by putting no more than the five dollars I had already pit into it. So stuff had to come from around the house. ☺️

@@Terrys-Steam-and-Cobi That's way better than me, I way over spend on every project. Glad to be of help, great video.

@@stevenj9414 ohhh I often way overspend too!! Lol

Thanks Éric! If you hadn’t stopped the car…

Thanks Dave! Hahahaha. Yes. The distilled water was ozonated. It bubbled like MAD! 🤣

There certainly is an extra safety valve location for a goodall valve.

I know, right!? Very very lucky. ☺️

@@Terrys-Steam-and-Cobi LOL I wouldn't have believed my luck and would have been on that like a dog on a T-bone !!!!! 🤣

P.s $5.46 Australian !

@@BlueHeelersSteamEngines-Jim no doubt. ☺️ I mainly focus on live steam railway locomotives, but how could I pass this up!? It is now my third live steam stationary engine.

@@BlueHeelersSteamEngines-Jim so cheap, right!?

Get that Stuart out Simon and make a video while you are at it! And yes, lol, a very nice ring to my engine. Tempting to record it like a percussion triangle with some guitar.

@@Terrys-Steam-and-Cobi ​I wish I could unpack some TIME while I'm at it. That will be fun. Reminds me of the acoustic comparison I made between the Accucraft and Bachmann boxcars 😂

@@ThatBIGTRAINGuy i do odd things like that all the time. ☺️

Oh yeah! SUPER bargain! You just need to accept it may be broken and needing some care.

They are not too too expensive. A used D8 with some missing parts would be about 100 and with steam leaks 50 or 60. A like new one almost 200. So 5 was good. 😊

I have been just watching the vids you sent me at loco 85. I should do a whistle compilation. Maybe as a short.

@@Terrys-Steam-and-Cobi would be exelant My shift is gonna end soon Currently 1:03 in the morning

@@soundofpollutionproduction3386 you will have earned your sleep!

Very much so Karl! Indeed. ☺️

Indeedy-oh!

Thanks! Lol. What’s next?… Well, my layout has no room for it. I have been considering making it mobile by building a barge under it with a workshop hut on it as well.

Yep. Crazy what?
