Oh I get it now

 

Being You, I'm surprised it didn't stick at first

 

Well the eldery owner is in over his head trying to bid a specialized powerpack for a prospective new customer. Asked for my technical help and his eyes glazed over during my explanation... final solution? Have me write his email for him


He needs to hurry up and retire so he can enjoy old age and stop making me the middle man lol

 

@Kwikvette meanwhile on the fabrication side, I had to make custom motor mount risers for the smaller engine to clear the valve body on the frame.

Didn't check the welder settings and just sent it grinder and paint make me the welder I ain't! ..... but in this instance just paint

 

As long as it burns, that's all that matters in that case.

Multiple keep asking for weld art now, so I need to source some junk for free or next to nothing.

 

And done

 

Who designed this place... That's a locking door, right next to a pass through window that is unclosable.

 

"As long as it burns" damn right! I only need the bolts to not rotate lol


It's only gotta support about 100lbs... I mighta overbuilt these feet



You should check in with some small engine shops in your area, you might be able to swing some metal frames or parts from dead equipment next to nothing

 

Holy fuck that c channel is thick

 

It's Dan-proof

 

Those are 1000lb feet

 

Yeeeeaaaaaa. We use that size to hold the big diesel engines to our large frame powerpack. Since it's what I had on hand I just went for it instead of ordering something smaller

(Since our metal supplier has min length order requirements and I needed less than a foot for both mounts)

 

That's good to know, I was worried we were pushing it for the 880lbs diesel we normally use this c channel for

 

"Uh Jimmie....why do you have 29.2' of 2x c channel by the coffee maker?"

 

C3?
