So that's where they all are, an exquisite group.

||||||
| ian.allen2 |
Nice collection of engines Phil. I love the black & brass ones. | ||||||
| Bugsy |
They aren't original but I liked the idea of "Dubbel Montage" (whatever that is in English  )
These wheels are original, they will go on the other tractor. 
|
||||||
| Sandman |
Couldn't agree more Les. |
||||||
| Burnmafingers |
All very nice, Especially like the black and brass mobiles, whatever the state of repair! | ||||||
| davidcurtis021 |

| Bugsy |
Here is my first video for STWWW 2011.
A Wilesco D14 working hard! I might add a few more accessories, this is a powerful little engine! |
||||||
| Sandman |
Great workshop Phil.
I will have to get round to building one like that for shows etc. Great to see. |
||||||
| Albert.rivero |
They look all splendid
|
||||||
| Celsius 100 |
A splendid collection of mobiles.The D14 certainly packs a punch,an enjoyable video. | ||||||
| Bugsy |
My Mamod mobiles.
|
||||||
| Les |
Only 4 Phil, for some reason I expected more than that. They are a very nice 4 though.
|
||||||
| Bugsy |
There will be more, Les! I'd love a van. And a double decker bus!
Phil |
||||||
| Bugsy |
Wilesco fire engines.
The lower one is unfired, I haven't even opened the plastic bag with the bell and whistle. |
||||||
| Sandman |
Nice mobile line up Phil. | ||||||
| Les |
Two fire engines, that's just plain greedy Phil. 
|
||||||
| BK |
Nice mobiles mate. | ||||||
| Dean W |
What a collection of rolling stock. You've got quite an iron farm there, Phil.
Really like your workshop, too. Such a clean and tidy layout, and the Wilesco fits in so well with the shop equipment. Funny, Wilesco spelled "Tractor" wrong. 
|
||||||
| scalex |
lots of very nice mobiles there
|
||||||
| kusuchi |
Great collection of mobiles, Phil!
Love the Ades, and the workshop is very impressive!
You don't, by any chance, happen to have your eyes on a T90?
|
||||||
| Stoker |
No wonder you are so busy all the time ... what with all that polishing you have to keep up with 
A bunch of beauties there for sure Phil, and nicely displayed too! |
||||||
| Stitch1615 |
Terrific collection of classic engines.
Too much brass for me to keep up with but it seems to be easy for you. Great workshop. |
||||||
| sarfraz |
A superb collection. One very proud owner. 
|
||||||
| Les |
Very impressive indeed Phil. 
|
||||||
| Lenny |
A very impressive collection indeed Phil . Love the mobiles.
|
||||||
| flywheel61 |
Some great engines there Phil, you just need a Renown Roller to go with the other mobiles,
Cheers

I want to knock together a quick workshop to load up the D14 properly.
These extra EKT tools were asking for work. 
But the wife would prefer to see some of these in action. 
|
||||||
| Les |
Put them all on Phil.
|
||||||
| Sandman |
Yea, whack em up mate.
|
||||||
| Bugsy |
All my Mamods? 
And the Wilescos? 
Langes and Lemeco as well? 
How about these Fleiscmann hole punching thingys with their cousins? 
Will this little SEL grinder be the straw that broke the camel's back? 
|
||||||
| ozsteamdemon |
Lookin good there Bugsy , get it happenin , man !
|
||||||
| Les |
That is a nice load of accessories Phil, nice to see them all together.
|
||||||
| Celsius 100 |
Great collection of accessories.Plenty of options for an engine/workshop challenge. | ||||||
| Bugsy |
I knocked this up as quickly as I could.
It needs improving but it will do for now. |
||||||
| Sandman |
That looks great mate.
I hope we see it in action soon.
|
||||||
| Les |
I cannot wait Phil.
|
||||||
| Dauntless |
thats looking good Phil! | ||||||
| Celsius 100 |
That is an interesting workshop test-bed. | ||||||
| Bugsy |
The belts are slipping! 
|
||||||
| Celsius 100 |
Bad news.We are all waiting with bated breath.I shall put my money on a large Wilesco coping with ease. |
||||||
| Bugsy |
New "Green Rubber" belts installed, they are an improvement to say the least.
Movie under production!
Phil |
||||||
| Bugsy |
It's a small Wilesco, a D14. PM me with your bet.
Back to Windows Movie Maker... Phil |
||||||
| Celsius 100 |
Phil,I have just has another look at your board,a gas fired D14 with a decent head of steam may just about manage it. |
||||||
| Bugsy |
Peter, that's what I was hoping for. Here is the movie, sorry about the length but I was having so much fun I didn't watch the clock. I've cut the length down to about 9 minutes.
|
||||||
| peol |
Impressive, bnut those workers will not get much paid at that speed
|
||||||
| Sandman |
Now, that is impressive Phil.
|
||||||
| Les |
That was really impressive Phil, how many lineshafts and accessories was that running in the end? | ||||||
| The Denying Dutchman |
That D14 really wants to go!
|
||||||
| Bugsy |
26 accessories and 7 lineshafts. The little D14 is a very willing worker. It never stalled no matter what we did. The belts slipped when the load got too high. I think the next step is to change all the important belts to that Green Rubber belting, it transmits energy without having to be tight on the pulleys. Less friction, more accessories!
Phil |
||||||

Thank you Phil that was an amazing performance from a relatively small engine.No wonder I have been unable to overload my D24,do not own enough accessories.
Peter |
||||||
| ozsteamdemon |
Phil , i couldn`t think of a better way to spend a day ...... or two
I think you hit the nail on the head less friction is good .
The green belting is the best thing since ......... um ..... the invention of the wheel ! and dont forget to oil your lineshafts .
|
||||||
| Bugsy |
Geoff, there is oil all over the kitchen. I oiled everything, that's the only way I could get it to run.
|
||||||
| BK |
Rippa mate, you got the best (plus a bit more) outa that 14. | ||||||
| stenella |
The poor D14 was straining a bit though ... brilliant
|
||||||
| Dauntless |
Wonderful Phil, thats a wonderful effort!
I love it mate! |
||||||
| mrborinator |
Realy amazing so much accessoires running by that engine.
Cheers, Rob. We"ll never steaming alone... |
||||||
| Bugsy |
