You just have love the cool old hit and miss engines of the 20s-40s that's every farm had on them to run a variety of equipment until they finally got power to all of the barns and outbuildings. These old engines run slowly and are wonderfully reliable as can be seen by this cute original little 1-1/2 horse utility engine. This one is different than the others we have as it requires a battery for the ignition as compared to the others which use magnetos. Every time you hear the engine fire and then turn over and over again until it finally fires once more you think it is finally going to just stop firing, but it never does! We have several different kinds of these hit and miss engines in our display at aaaLakeside Storage in Provo Ut. Come by and take a look and pictures for FREE.
Yup! It's another upside down version of the right side up version you usually see in Pix. We must have anti gravity pix that allow our stuff to hang from the sky? Isn't old age great!
The correct iPhone camera upright position is (in portrait) the Home Button is on the bottom and (in landscape) it is on the right. You can also rotate (first icon, box with a curved arrow over the right corner) the photos with the edit feature on your phone or iPad. I hope that helps you.

Well it ain't that easy for an old codger who barely speaks modern day English. I am actually using an IPad not and IPhone and all of those fancy buttons and arrows etc don't appear on my screens anywhere I can see. The pix on the role in the IPad are all right side up and were taken properly and work in every other medium but this one? It's just gotta be old age once more.
I can help you, if you would allow me.
Are you left handed? The home button positioning tip applies to the iPad as well.
Go to your photo in Pictures. At the top right, it says Edit. If you click that, it will now say show Rotate and other options all along the bottom. Rotate it and post as your second, third, and fourth photo. Try one click rotation, two, and three so you get the hang of what happens based on the number of rotations.

Be sure to Save the photo after you Edit.

Not left handed, just age challenged. Yes I can see how to rotate an otherwise perfect pix in my IPad and make it upside down in the IPad. Are you suggesting that I change my pix in my IPad so that they now appear upside down so they will suddenly show right side up in CW? That sounds like it might work but also sounds like the CW software is the problem as all other Social Media can accept my pix just the way they are and I don't have to rotate them 180 to transport. Yep I'm slow. :)
Sure give it a try. Rotate and post it as the second photo.

I love these hit and miss engines. Raw power in a simple form. Thanks for posting!
Buckethead,
I'm still not sure why watching and listening to these cool old engines is so compelling and enticing but it certainly is a fact. They are just intriguing! So very basic and so reliable
