  1. Man Jim that sounds like a bunch of work.. Good Luck ..
  2. Is it a flow actuated or a pressure actuated ??? How about a pic..
  3. Anyone ever see one of these?

    I gotta get me one of those...
  4. John T it's a shame you live so far away .. we have an old house in Benton, MS they we were going to restore but I have not had time to really work on it alot.. I have a whole room full of crown and shoe molding , and waynescoat siding,as well as chairrail.. Its just sitting in the old house warping I guess. Bought about 1000.00 of it to do most of the house.. I wish someone needed this..
  5. Here is my Rig .. It is 3000@5
  6. Chris your right I will probably carry about 100 gallons at times .. I may just stick with what I have .. I think I am going to cut a rectangle in the tank I have and use one of these.. for my float valve Trough-O-Matic Float Valve Aluminum - ShanesTack
  7. Well here is what we look like so far.. witht the new machine and all.
  8. Pump of choice

    Go and try to buy parts for a cat pump and you will wish you had a general
  9. What I am trying to figure out on my new machine is should I stay with my homemade 60 gallon water tank are switch to a 330 gallon tank .. It is on a 12 foot single axle trailer with a 3500 lb axle... So if I carry 200 gallons of water at least that is 1600 pounds and my machine and stuff about another 1000 lbs.. What will this do to the MPG on my F150 FX4 ( 5.4 L ) and also will it carry it and will I be able to stop???
  10. Hey Russ nice rig .. We have the same vac unit .. but ours has about 20 foot of hose as we use it inside a hospitol to clean tile floors.. So out of all those machines which one do you use the most ...?? Also it's a good thing you have a Ford I dont think a Cheby would pull it.. LOL
  11. Yep I bought a new machine.. It is a pressure pro 3000@5gpm 2400 watt generator , 110volt Beckett Burner.. Taking it on it's first job This morning.. I will take photos .. I still ahve the Whitco 3000@4 that I am thinking about selling ..
  12. surface cleaners / which one?

    OK to build your own... got to jackssmallengines.com and get the mosmatic swivel either cobalt or ceramic.. I like the ceramic.. Then get a 55 gallon drum and cut the bottom out exactly 3" up.. Then drill a 1 1/4 inch hole in the center.. then 3 peices of angle iron , 3 casters, whip hose,pressure gun, and some lawnmower handles and build away .. Total cost swivel 4000psi/300degree rated $135.00 Gun -24.00 handles and 55 gallon drum -FREE caster -24.00 whip Hose $11.00 2-10" 1/4" pipe + 1/4" Tee+ Elbows and 2-15degree #4 stainless tips $24.00 This thing has run at 3500 psi @205 degrees for the past 2 years with no maintenance needed..... My adjustable steel eagle breaks every month or so.. Steel Eagles are built really cheap. Whisper Wash Are Good if you try to clean with cold water.. But most of them wont run at over 185 degrees.. And Landa ,, Well you know !!!! All I can say about Landa is ask Ron.. Good Luck
