BLTE Slow Running on Air Video

Slow Running On Air Video of My 3/4″ Scale Bassett Lowke Traction Engine Model

A newly made proper flywheel replaces the tiny lathe chuck in my previous video “First Time Running On Air” allows really slow running on compressed air.

Note that in this video I have not yet made the full reversing valve gear which is why it only shows one eccentric and rod. Also the flywheel which was machined from a solid piece of 5″ dia cast-iron bar is still not yet 100% complete. Some cosmetic rounding of the spokes required.
