Any hit and miss engine lovers here? Flywheel engines?

My buddy has a couple hundred of those hit and miss motors.  You know those big old engines that go thump thump thump.  Anyone here into those?
Post a video of yours.

I have resisted several urges to buy one, I love them but they're just too big/heavy to have around.

Finally a hit on my hit and miss thread. Yeah but there are small ones also. I love the little maytag washing machine motors also. Go on you tube and watch all the videos you want.  After awhile your urge will go away.

I love that stuff. I'm going to the Florida Flywheelers show in February. I don't have a HoM engine, but I do have a 1953 John Deere AO that's about 90% finished.

They are neat. I'd like to have one but they can be expensive for no more then they would do nowadays.

Here's a video on my utube from 2 years ago at a show.

That's cool.  Never seen a corn grinder before.  Just left my buddies house.  He has about 5 cement mixers with engines inside, never seen that either?
He's been finally selling some stuff, here's a saw rig he just sold that he had for about 30 years.  The new guy is playing with it at his place.
