Good & Original 1960s Jensen 100 Shop Live Steam Engine

Description: LIVING ESTATE SALE (Details at the end of description) For your consideration is a Jensen Shop # 100 made in the USA in the 1960s. From the Jensen Museum :http://www.jensensteamengines.com/museum-items/100-standard.htm "The Jensen Model #100 was produced with a natural finish from 1951 through 1985 when it was removed from production." The live steam engine shop is in good condition for its age.On the video, you can see that every tool is moving like it should. It is complete , including the original box that is in good condition (but was opened upside-down about 60 years ago...) It is all original and in the original condition except : - The label is a replacement, - The spring belts are more recent than the shop, - Chances are, the screws have been replaced. A couple of things to report : - The jointer little handles are missing (see closeup photo). - Besides some vintage dust, a thorough cleaning of the tools is probably needed. I suspect that some solid fuel was stored in the same box and, when exposed to even a mild humidity, the pellets dissolve and spread some white residue (photos). Please select the shipping system that suits you best. Condition :This Jensen Shop 100 is good condition for its age. Every part is mobile (video). It is complete including the original box that is in good condition but was opened upside-down a long time ago... It is all original except for the label, newer spring belts and (probably) new screws. The jointer (closeup photo) is missing the two little handles. It needs a thorough cleaning (original vintage condition). I would rate it a solid C6. VERY IMPORTANT : I am offering four shipping options. You can check the cost by clicking next to shipping on "See Details" or make your choice at take-out. The default is usually UPS Ground as Expedited Shipping can be expensive and is not necessarily more reliable. Please keep in mind that I do not control the cost of shipping that is calculated by eBay.Free pick-up is always available (Rock Hill, SC). LESS IMPORTANT : Items are packed and ready for shipping when I make the listing. Combined shipping cannot be done if one item is larger than 8 x 8 x 8 packed. If it is possible, smaller items can be combined upon request prior to the payment. Guarantee : Item is guaranteed to be as described. I am a very honest seller hoping to deal with honest buyers. If I know something is wrong, I will disclose it but I certainly can make an honest mistake and will do my very best to correct it. Warning : Many of these older collectibles are not in compliance with today's safety standards. It is the responsibility of the buyer to determine whether or not they are still suitable for their intended purpose. Adult supervision is indispensable with any steam engine. Packaging :Items are packed carefully and should remain undamaged through a standard level of care during handling. LIVING ESTATE SALE DETAILS :I had my first steam engine when I was 9 years old. That was 65 years ago. I have been collecting them for 25 years and I am now 74. None of my descendants is interested in the collection, so I decided that it was time to liquidate. As of November 2024, I still have over 1,300 engines of all kinds to list. I believe in full disclosure. It takes me about an hour to list one item, between the assessment, the testing, the video, the photos, the description and the very careful packaging. I try to have very reasonable prices. At comparable quality, my prices are probably the lowest on the market.MM/AI
