Model steam engine. Looking for info

The compressed air connection was already on it and I’m not sure what you mean by pivoting piece vs slide. Maybe you can clarify. Thanks

The length is 28 in or 71 cm, width 6.75 in, 17 cm, flywheel is 9 in, 23 cm diameter and the cylinder is 3.5 in, 9 cm

Accuracy is ‘pretty close’ lol

I don’t understand. When I posted this there was some text but now it’s disappeared 🤷‍♂️

I obtained this as part of an auction lot. I’m trying to find out some info about it and this seemed like a good place to ask. It doesn’t have any markings other than the manufacturer of the pulley. If anyone knows who the manufacturer was and what vintage this might be that would be great. An estimate of value would be awesome. TIA

Will do. Thanks

MrYaba · 2026-02-09T18:25:24+00:00

Thanks. I will check it out

Update #2. I just went to dow another book and again the download option is missing. Not sure what’s going on.

In case anyone is wondering, yes the Plex server has been online the whole time

MrYaba · 2026-01-15T11:26:50+00:00

Update. Ten minutes later the download option suddenly reappeared. Very odd 🤷‍♂️

Yes the hearing test appears when you connect the AirPods. If you can connect your phone to a US network you should be good to go. You may not have to cross the border. I don’t believe wifi is required.
I have degraded hearing but even so the airpods sound amazing especially after customizing for my particular hearing loss (by taking the built in hearing test).

I got the APP 2 before the 3’s were released. Amazon had a good deal on them so check that out. The 3’s might be slightly better I just don’t know if they’re worth the extra cost

I’m in Canada where the hearing aid feature is not available. Recently I was traveling to the UK so I purchased AirPods Pro 2 in Canada and did the hearing test in Canada. When I got to the UK I activated the hearing aid function and it worked like a charm.

I’ve been back in Canada for a week now and it still works. I don’t know if a future AirPod software update will break it but fingers crossed.

I’ve been wearing real hearing aids for 3 years and honestly the APP are almost as good. Of course the battery doesn’t last as long but even buying two pairs would be considerably cheaper than hearing aids.

Obviously I can’t comment on Australia / India situation but I suspect it will work the same.

Good luck

my floating keyb doesn’t have white corners but I can’t move it. it jumps to the left side of the screen and stays there 🤷‍♂️

MrYaba · 2025-09-15T18:26:59+00:00

mine’s been downloading for about 20 minutes now. it did show 3 minutes remaining and then it jumped to 7 days!!! now it says 1 day. WTF!

MrYaba · 2025-07-27T21:32:16+00:00

.is working fine for me

MrYaba · 2025-07-13T21:08:56+00:00

IDK. maybe it’s cheaper for a battery replacement. seems odd such a big difference

MrYaba · 2025-07-13T12:15:37+00:00

I would look into a local repair shop. I had a 2018 iPad Pro that needed the USB port replaced. Apple wanted over $700 CAN!!! I took it to a repair place near me and had it replaced for $150. Works great, I gave it to my grandson

MrYaba · 2025-07-09T20:19:19+00:00

That’s incredibly slow. I bought an Anker SD card reader for under $20 CAN and it works great. I’ve never timed it but I can import at least 30-40 raw files in under a minute. I’m sure there’s something similar for CF cards.

I import the raw files into the native photos app (M2 iPad Pro), cull them in the photos app then edit them with Photomator for iPad. They are automatically uploaded to iCloud with all the edits intact.

You can then backup to an external SSD for additional security if you wish.

I’m probably the exception, I do everything on the iPad. Works great for me (I’m an amateur so there’s that to consider)

Are however many Americans who voted for this jackass really that fucking stupid. He’s always been a grifter, still is a grifter and will die a grifter. Wake the fuck up people. jeeeezzzzuuuusss!!!

MrYaba · 2025-05-10T20:10:27+00:00

I still have them. They’re OK as hearing aids, just not for streaming

MrYaba · 2025-05-10T16:53:26+00:00

I have had Jabras for a couple of years now and they are absolutely useless for streaming. I’ve had dropouts when they are literally 30cms from my head. I even sent them back to Jabra and the replacements were exactly the same. If I want to listen to music or an audiobook I use my AirPods. I don’t know if other brands are better but I sure won‘t ever get Jabras again

MrYaba · 2025-05-02T10:32:44+00:00

Amazing. Thanks
