Antique Engines - Harry's Old Engine - Gas Engine Steam Engines

Description

I grew up on a New York country farm in Schuyler County with a John Deere LA, grapes, peaches, pears and a few chickens. At age 2 though, I had this electrifying

experience with a hairpin and a wall socket so I've been into electronic things most of my life. I started my mechanical hobby by taking apart a Briggs and Stratton lawn mower engine in my high school years to see what was inside and to "fix" what was causing it to be a stubborn starter. (I found out that you had to put the rod bearing end cap back on in the same direction you took it off.) I also learned, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."

That David Bradley mower and Briggs engine lived on to 1995 with repairs (plus a few cuss words) made only by myself.
