I used to have an account with them, however when I clicked the link you provided, I was directed to a link that suggested, I subscribe to a listing that, implied I would receive your message. So far now, it has cost me $19.00+, to hopefully receive your message, which I haven't received, as yet.I may be INTERNET illiterate as are most older people that sign on these days. But why would you, or anyone else that communicate regularly with net mail, that is a hustle for commercial internet intrest's,ie, Yahoo.

David Wiseman Posted February 4, 2010 Author Share Posted February 4, 2010 A mining engineer friend of mine,Bart Hanford made part of this for me and had the rest fabricated...1/2 horsepower washing machine motor with muffler clamp welded to hold motor in place..#40 chain to pulverize the rock...4 7/16ths bolts to hold the face plate.Diagonal feed shoot.We didn't add a hole or throat for a vacuum pickup.Will open up the plate and vacuum all with that buckethead vacuum thingy/or put the vacuum nozzle in the feed shoot as it's running.If one has the tools and access to steel scrap tanks and other steel it can be made for less than $200.Haven't used it as yet but Bart and Robert Schmauder ran some good ore through and turned it all to powder.

AuTSaurus Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 That link worked perfectly for me. Nice looking mill.Could you add a close up photo of how the chain is affixed to the motor shaft?And, How often do you think you will have to change out the chain?Thanks,Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Wiseman Posted February 4, 2010 Author Share Posted February 4, 2010 Au,a friend took the pics.The chain should last a very long time,and is sold in ten foot lengths I believe.Will try and get you specs and how the chain is attached when I see my friend.Scrap steel goes for about $1 a pound or so? and any scrap metal yard may have chain also....Dave.

David Wiseman Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 Will try and post a diagram of the shaft setup when I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Wiseman Posted February 6, 2010 Author Share Posted February 6, 2010 hope this works for you.Buy bar stock, master link cost a few bucks or less..drill center hole,drill hole above for set screw,drill side holes,attach to shaft .Not sure if all the specs are exact.Your own should work if they conform to the chain.

AuTSaurus Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Got it, Dave!Thanks for the additional info, I'm sure others, besides myself, may also find this useful.Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Wiseman Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 It's actually a #60 chain,not #40.One could add port for vacuum clean out,screw drive to push out the powdered fines,etc.Make a bigger unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Dave,That is perfect for the final crush. Do you have to run the material more than once to get it to powder? Have you screened it to see what mesh it goes down to? It sure looks a lot like the pulverizer that Action Mining sells, but much better on the wallet being home made. I would like to make one also. I'll send you a PM. Thanks for sharing all the info. I am glad I saw this post because I was out of town for over a week. Take care.Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Wiseman Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 Matt,I don't know the mesh,My friends that had a direct hand in the build ran some higrade rock through it and it's fine powder as they left some at the bottom of the unit.Haven't even run it myself as I'm waiting for a stretch of good weather.They just ran it once.....Dave.
