MasterPlvmber's old boiler maintenance videos - where are they?

Anyone know where you can find this old but awesome 4-part series on boilers, annual boiler maintenance, etc? They seemed to have vanished with the new site changeover. Maybe youtube, or vimeo? I can’t find them anywhere… http://brownstoner.staging.wpengine.com/blog/2007/11/video-anatomy-o/

Thanks bklnite. Please post back here if you hear back from them. I emailed brownstoner but didn’t get a response. :(. Stuff like that is gold and I’m sure it’s still around, just not at the same location as on the old site.

What a shame. Those were fun to make and people seemed to really like them.

http://brownstoner.staging.wpengine.com/blog/2007/11/video-reignitin/ That’s a link to the 4th part (with links to the 1st 3) and the video doesn’t show for any of them. Seems they were lost in translation to the new site. I’ll send an email to brownstoner & the a bstoner techie to see if they can revive them.

seconded!  i’m getting acquainted with a legacy steam boiler and could really use pointers to anything out there along the lines of  “seasonal & periodic steam boiler procedures for dummies”
