[QUOTE="JPCJE, post: 101975, member: 3118"] Thanks again Alex So far I have quite a few of the parts to start my project. I have a 2HP single phase motor with 25 mm shaft, (also have a 5.5 hp Honda) I plan to weld mounting brackets for both the 2hp and the 5.5 so I can use either petrol or electric - will trial both to see which one works best. Have a 100 mm pulley and a 300 mm pulley. By my calculations this should result in about 1400 rpm on the 2HP. Also have a 600 mm X 25 mm shaft for the crushing chamber and two pillow block bearings. I am going to cut down and use the ends from some old chain dogs instead of hammers (they are hardened steel). Will post a few photos when I get started. Still looking for a 400 mm diameter piece of steel pipe. Have an old pump frame so will use that - it was a great idea you gave me - thank you. Cheers John [/QUOTE]
