Bird Flies - Underwater! Posted by: swithnell
Video duration: 33 seconds This clip is from the Aquarium in Parque Narcoes in Lisbon, Portugal. About half way through the clip a bird "flies" into shot apparently oblivious of the difference in viscosity of air and water (or the need to breathe!). Wonderful aquarium, which claims to be the second largest in the world Related: p1020449 Display Video Comments | Hide Video Comments | Add Comment |

Stuart Turner - the Victoria with Expansion Valve Drive Gear Posted by: swithnell
Video duration: 27 seconds Short video to show the valve drive gear in operation. I'm turning the engine by hand in this shot hence the jerky motion. I could claim it's your internet connection ;) The timing I think, is that eccentric 2 should be 60degrees in advance of eccentric 1 (the lower valve rod). Spot the stupid mistake!

Stuart Turner the Victoria - Trial Run - Live Steam Engine Posted by: swithnell
Video duration: 41 seconds Here is an initial run of the Stuart Victoria I am building. I've been recording progress at my Wordpress blog: http://stevewithn ell.wordpress.com This engine is running on compressed air at just less around 10 PSI. There are no gaskets or packings installed to make the engine pressure tight, the piston is running in the bore without the yarn packing, Yet it runs.
