    Man, having a clear glass ball on the top of this would be so cool. This is such an interesting series!

    It would be awesome if some glass blower saw this and reached out to see about making one

    What a mechanical marvel. I saw one of these decades ago in an antique shop but had no idea what it was about. The amount of cleaning you had to do from a total meltdown is incredible.

    Very top notch stuff David! I think this is top quality content right here. Very real and in depth. This is that "older" efficiency that everyone talks about but never really sees!

    Thanks! As far as I know this is the only functional GE Scotch Yoke machine shown on the Internet open and running.

    Amazing how the same process is still used. I work on large Carlyles and Copelands and Bitzer everyday and the unloaders we have now using solenoid valves. You do great explaining it all as well. If you ever may need some parts I may be able to help sometimes.

    I remember the first time I saw a Carlyle unloader, totally blew my mind! Every once and again I wish I stayed in the large refrigeration world for that reason. So much to learn if you want to!

    From my basic background in manufacturing, I can tell you that compressor would be fantastically expensive to manufacture. Very high part count compared to modern compressors, lots of manual/hand assembly required, etc... That would not have been a cheap refrigerator when it was new, that's for sure. I have a couple 1980s Fridges still kicking along just fine, and the level of quality in their compressors would be no where near this. Honestly it's just as amazing how long semi-modern compressors can last when you consider just how cost-reduced they are compared to this.

    Is the discharge line from the compressor soldered into the housing?

    It is. Comes from the compressor mechanism, makes the two pass spiral, then goes through the housing. It is soldered into the housing to seal it from leaks.

    Hello David. I have a question for you about refrigeration. I read and saw a KZread video that someone used a closed loop all copper system for recovering heat from the fireplace. He used copper tubing with a all copper radiator outside the fire place and loops inside the fuel pipe itself with just two hard solder joints. He used just a vacuum to draw down the the air out of the pipe and filled it with distilled water to the appropriate amount. This worked without any mechanical compressor. What do you think about that setup David ?? Thank you for your help Sir. Peace vf

    was there not a grommet where the wires go into the motor housing?
