a cute gem

Blah Blah Blah
anyone ever seen one of these.....im guessing our resident old man probably has....

ive not played with it much other than to see if it has spark and compression....my assumption is this is from when the world didnt have power tools..haul this out with you and you now have a genny to run your power tools....its setup with an outlet as well as a car battery charger....but i gotta love the "warning"

They also built one they called the Tiny Tiger. It had a .8 hp 2-stroker and was only about 7" tall and only weighed about 10 lbs. Quite the little genny, it would put out 350 watts at 110 volts. :cool:
 
i doubt its really worth anything beyond shop art at this point..i saw it and was like thats gotta be a cool lil thing....it was got for 10$ at a yard sale i belive....looks like an RC aircraft engine...
 
I am still trying to figure out how my friend's Dad turned an old reel-blade gas lawnmower into a generator using a Chrysler alternator. I've never seen it done since or found any online information on how to it, but it cranked out enough 120VAC juice to run their camp, small fridge and all. There was no inverter, no voltage regulator, and I'm sure no bridge rectifier in it.

Alchemist/ magician? :wtf: :D
 
He was something special, that's for sure. When they got their camp built, the trailer that served as it got crushed and the generator was inside it at the time. Not one of his four sons--all engineers--have ever figured out how he did it.
