Curt,
Don't be dissin' my tractor :-)! The reason that it's only run once in the last 12 years has nothing to do with the tractor itself. I was the last one to use it as a working tractor and when I moved to the Bluegrass it was parked in a remote corner of the shed and wasn't touched. It's about the lowest maintenance tractor that I've encountered (new or old) and I've used it for 1000's of hours mowing, discing and making money pulling stuck 4X4's out of the nearby lake. So maybe it's Cecil's mechanic skills need ribbing not his Flambeau gems :-)!
See ya',

Hi Folks,
I just got a call from a guy here in western Pennsylvania that has a 1911 Sattley 1-3/4 HP engine and he wants to bore and sleeve .
I got some questions.
1. Where would a sleeve be available to do this job?
2. Would it be more practical to rebore the cylinder and put in an oversized piston if a piston would be available?
3. Anyone know of a machine shop here in western PA that could do the job for him?
Thanks

It is my position, that as caretakers of these engines, it is our duty to preserve as much of the precious block material as possible. The practice of hogging out huge amounts of cylinder material to fit a sleeve has never set well with me. I much prefer the option of boring the cylinder only the amount needed to just clean it up and get it round and straight again. Then to make a new piston, since oversized OEM pistons won't likely be available. I've documented the piston pattern making process on my website to encourage folks to give pattern making a try. Believe you me I am NO wood worker! But still managed to make a go of the pattern and corebox that was sufficient for Rick to cast pistons for my engines. There is a real sense of accomplishment when you get to hold in your hand the casting that is the result of your pattern making efforts. Dave Otto just made a pattern for his Falk engine and maybe he'll pipe up and tell us about his experience on his first piston pattern. As caretakers, someone a couple of hundred years from now will be thanking you for your conservation of the precious block material or cursing you for hogging it all away for a sleeve that is impossible to remove and replace.

The worst part of the job is tramming the Bridgeport! When I did the 1 1/2HP piston, Tommy Berry suggested I put a chucking button on the crown to facilitate machining. That has worked out exceedingly well as it eliminates one of the chucking steps. This lets you turn the entire piston in 1 setup, leaving only the facing of the crown. The only drawback is when cutting the ring grooves, as it tends to chatter a little so you have to go slow here. A big rubber cork in the open end might help absorb the chatter. Now admittedly the piston size has a huge impact on the machining time. The last one I did was the 50# piston casting for the Alamo. I spent the better part of a Saturday and the following Monday evening just on lathe work. I didn't keep track of the hours but I'd guess 10 hours lathe time. I couldn't do the wrist pin bore work on a standard Bridgeport (needed 6" of quill travel and lots of vertical room for the part and the tooling) so I had to ask a favor of a large machineshop in town and they let me use one of their LARGE "Bridgeport" style machines for this step. That was a brand new machine to me and between the setup, finding the tooling and doing the job I spent the better part of a day there. It should have been about 4 hours of work. That would be much closer to the time your buddy estimated. You tend to be a LOT more careful with a single 50# casting that when you have a dozen little pistons castings available. It's not too traumatic if you kill a little part! I did document the machining steps for the small piston. I thought I had put the machining times on here but I guess not. At one point I definitely tracked my time on these as there was a local retiree who was going to machine these. I think he estimated $80 each for the machining. That never panned out due to his health though. Here is the link on the machining steps for the small piston.
Thanks for the link on the mag (120004362369). Can't be in the market for one yet, but it is good to know what to look for.
It did seem rather unclassy of the seller to call out Arnie like that though. Not sure the story there, but it seemed an odd thing to do.
Thanks again,
Tony

My comments are if you say you can machine a raw piston casting in 4 hrs so
be it and I believe that you can . There are many variables in
this operation , i.e. how much meat in the casting ,the size and HP of your
lathe, tooling and sequence of machining operations. I would prefer to give
credit to those of us who have had machine shop experience in our former
working lives .Your description of the boring and sleeving operation
indicate that you are not an ''Armchair Machinist''...........I find the
whole argument bloody pointless.
Now I await the smart arse comments.

Message-ID: John,
The reason this guy wants to restore this engine is it was boughten by his great grandfather new in 1911 and has been in the family every since. So I can see why he wants to keep it and restore it. I'm waiting for a response from him with bore dimentions so we can see just how much it is worn, then deside what to do. There are several choises and he will look at all of them before making a decission.
Thanks to all that has responded. Once I get the information I'll post them and we can go from there.

Heres an alternative to making a piston from a casting--especially if you

the only draw back I see would be having to relieve all the material between
the bosses where rod goes---probably go a little slow having to use
"extended" tooling. May not be real practical on big pistons but on the
little ones it should be faster than having to go through the process of
making castings-----unless you just want to do it. Then again, it's simpler
to just go buy a good engine than to restore a worn out basket
case-----unless you just want to do it.

Nothing like family iron. We are fortunate to have a few pieces of it. Those
are the pieces that you generally don't count your time or money when
working on. Seond best to that is iron that you got from friends and
neighbors and were able to get a history with it.

I use webshots and the cost is around $30 a year. For that I can place up
to 5,000 photos online of which I have almost 2,000 already. Its the best
deal in the world!

From: "Dave Croft" Howdy folks,
I am in need of a newer Letz grinder.
I want one like a model 180 or 244
A model that will take the whole corn stalk, chop it up and then grind it.
Anyone got one and willing to sell it?
Able to get it to Portland?
I have a model 8 that was only made in 1914, their first year then I also have a slightly newer one that is like it except it doesn't have the cast iron hopper that my model 8 has.
The model 8 also came with a tin hopper, but mine must have originally had a number 15 cutter that needed the cast iron hopper to mount to.
Thanks for reading this,

Message-ID: <492.46018fd.31d91c9b@aol.com> Alan, I think it is the combination of 4th holiday and many shows and other stuff going on across the country this weekend. Went to Southeast Old Threshers Reunion at Denton, NC for the day on Friday (3 hr ride) and had a great time looking at all the engines and seeing a number of folks. Also sold an engine. That show now charges $12 entrance, so I carry an engine to display, but have also been putting a for sale sign too. Have a nice day! Tom Schmutz Concord, Va.
