Got Tracy's plans several weeks ago, then I got shipped out of town for work for a few weeks :thumbdn: Picked up the metal at a local Metal/scrap yard, 88lbs of various steel, all drops, or cutoffs, for 55 bucks, and heck ended up with some extra at that!. I needed a 4x9 piece of 1/2" for the rotating attachment, they had a 6x20 peice for cheap, for example(I like it there, I'll be going back)
Great plans Tracy, good to feel confident I have a good design to go from. Got a couple things cut so far, but then got sidetracked trying to figure out a cheaper way to go with wheels etc. Shoot that stuff gets expensive fast. I'll get there. Incidentally, anyone looking for a decent motor, Northern tool has a 2hp general duty motor/1725rpm for $134, decent motor should serve you well. I'm trying to track down a VFD setup, but if all else fails, thats the motor I'll be getting.
Jarod, great little mod you came up with there, I had a similar thought in my head but hadn't gotten anywhere on it before I saw your. Perfect, I don't need to change a thing. Great design man, good going.
