While machine tools existed at the time, they were manually controlled and didn't have the fine tolerances necessary to make interchangeable components.

While machine tools existed at the time, they were manually controlled and didn't have the fine tolerances necessary to make interchangeable components. So, instead, they had to make what they needed specifically to fit that that particular engine.

Do you see a crossing at 3:51?
All the way from the very bottom of africa I say thankyou for this video. I can't believe you keep that ol lady going still. And you drive on the shoulder to not be an inconvenience to faster vehicles.
This is probably the closest I'd ever get to seeing a steam train. Really cool tractor, by the way. It's really great to seeing such things still capable of working.
So eine Aktion müsste man in Deutschland auch einmal durchziehen! Das wäre die Show für jeden, wenn einem einfachen einmal eine Dampfmaschine auf der Straße begegnet!😂
Can you imagine, back in the good old days . When we didn't have Health and safety annoying you about machine guards on everything 😂😂😂😂😂

Missed those day when me and homies watch this thing down the road with goofy music on background back in the 1800's.
People are distracted drivers because of cell phones. Hold my beer as I shovel coal into the hot box. Great video. I love the guy giving the hand signal for you to blow the horn. 🥰
