![]() 2095 forum posts 75 photos | Several of my Stationary engines have cam shafts running in cast iron bearings and run at 300+ rpm, one engine has a greasing cup to lubricate the bearing and an earlier sibling has just a hole to put lubricating oil onto the shaft, this engine was made in 1923 and its later brother is dated at 1947, they will run for more years than I will Martin P Edited By martin perman on 29/07/2018 18:19:42 |
