looking for a 4 cylinder carbonated gas engine or 3 or 4 cylinder diesel, out of a forklift, skid steer or small trackhoe, or some similar piece of equipment. i would prefer a diesel, but gas will work. either engine, gas or diesel must produce between 60 and 150 horses. needs to have the wiring/plumbing for a tachometer so i can set it at X rpm to run a hydraulic pump, which will power the the rest of the mill, including the band drive wheel via direct hook up to the drive wheel.
im also looking for a used floor stand drill press or mag base drill. i will be drilling close to 300 holes, ranging between 5/126" to 1", hopefully using an annular hougen style bit if possible. i would prefer a mag base, since some of the holes will need to be drilled upside down, or horizontally, or even in tight quarters, where a drill press can't get to.
pm me, or email me at
charles.mann1@icloud.com please include price and pics if you are offering something up, either for barter or sale.
my phone is 936-366-3024, but i would rather start conversation via email since i never know which schedule (days or nights) i will work within my 12 days on shift. plus as of now, i will be colorado, but may move to an active fire location, which could be anywhere, including commifornia.
thanks ethd group.
