This is a video clip of my latest steam engine project. It is a Winding steam engine used to lift ore up the horizontal shafts of mines especially in the UK.

I would suspect the mine shafts to be vertical....

Its an impressive project.
 
Great project. Impressive!

You are right, What is that old saying? " Do what I think not what I say". My only excuse is that I'm old.
 
Very nice project, looks to me like a lot of engineering went into it!
 
That's just neater'n sh*t. Now if I just had a gold mine . . .

By the way very, very nice fit 'n finish.
 
There is a steam lift at Coolsprings Power museum in Pa.
 
Not sure why, but when I play the video it's upside down.
 
If a stope is on an incline, we here in Canada call it a ramp
