@@ArcaneZorro I didn't even try support. I just ordered the pulley with bearings and replaced it myself. It's back up and running perfect for many days worth of printing.
@@JoeMalovich glad to hear it, I'm going to try the fix and see how it goes. I think I damaged the molded housing a bit too much but I'll cross my fingers
I'm glad I watched your video last year before we installed the garbage disposal. The plumber and my husband insisted it would be fine with putty, and I said it needs silicone. My husband had to redo it because it was leaking, and he used putty again. The third time, he finally listened to me, and used silicone. It hasn't leaked since.
This was such a excellent project, I watched the entire thing. I thought about it today now that I'm living in the hills of WV and have a spring on top of the hill. Took me a good 25 mins to find this but here I am lol. Good content man thanks
I just picked up the same chipper, except with a smaller 420cc, ~13HP, Brigs single cylinder engine. It seems to me like either your drive belt, clutch or both are slipping. The manual that came with mine said to adjust the belt so that it deflects 3/8" when pushed down firmly. Mine comes up to speed much faster than yours, and I think I noticed in your video that the engine on yours doesn't slow down much when loaded with those big branches. Thanks for posting this!
If you don't have enough fall on a creek can you possibly have multiple ram pumps to get the water to a high enough elevation? I'm needing about 12 feet of rise to get water into a pond. I guess you'd need some kind of holding tank halfway up the hill to restart the ram proces...if that's even possible?
Unfortunately, you will likely have the same freezing issues as the two wooden wheels you have made in the past. Waterwheels that were made from thin sheet steel like those built by the Fitz Water Wheel Co do not have icing issue except in the most extreme cold because the thin steel takes on the temperature of the water in the buckets preventing ice accumulation. If you are going to use piping from the water source to the wheel it should be laid in a trench in the ground below frost level.
@@JoeMalovich Not sure.. cavitation is usually to do with high pressure round turbine. That sudden thump would be more like what you would get when shutting a valve suddenly.
The sink is functional of course, but where the little rubber things are on the bottom rack, it leaves marks on the surface of the sink that can't be removed. I've had it for 6 months.
