Amazing Work

Post by EMS »

This subject is not necessarily new and I am sure many of you have seen similar things before..still..:

Last Sunday we took a ride and made our annual visit to the Vintage festival at Malabar Farms, a historic site near Mansfield, Ohio. Besides the usual displays of early settler scenarios, native American life and artifacts and Civil War artillery enactments, there is always a showing of antique steam and gasoline engine powered equipment. This year, they had several miniature engine builders showing their handywork. Simply amazing. These things all run on gasoline!

I have spent far too much time watching Youtube videos of these craftsmen.
