Sears sold a bunch of Economy engines, so it's hardly an engine show without a few of these. Boonville is just a stone's throw from Evansville where they were made. The weather was pretty darn cool Saturday, and a hot bowl of bean soup really hit the spot for lunch.
Nice group of engines. I don't think much mechanical gear from today is going to be working a century from now, but that would be a good topic for a discussion.
Jam Nuts. Just one of my many pet peeves. The thin nut goes on first. https://www.boltscience.com/pages/twonuts.htm
