Garage Door motor

Are lead balls, Sulfur, Salt Peter, and charcoal involved?

One day the FiL of a friend mentioned that he would like to have a small wood lathe so I bought him one for $5 one Saturday. When he came to get it, I asked if he needed a motor for it and his reply was that he had one that he was using for a couple other applications. When I reached under the bench ant pulled out a couple spare 1/3HP motors for him, his eyes lit up like bulbs. A couple days latter he delivered a trunk load of seasoned hardwood timber for me to "play" with, saying he had more than enough for his own needs. Gerry :-)} London, Canada

Why not just modify the drum of the drier and use the whothe thing??

Talking with my sweet one today - mentioned I wanted to build two 30x30x20 buildings next to mine when we win it big - she came out and said - oh - and I want one in the back with a greenhouse...

One of the two was to be hers - but now just waiting to become plush!

Check your local newspapers classified ads. Ours has a FREEBIE section which usually has an old washer or dryer every week. The local scrap metal yard accepts the larger parts, so I've removed motors and compressors from fridges and washers, then scrapped (free) the rest.

Might be; just might be.

Thanks for all the help! LLoyd and a couple others know my intentions with my rock tumbler. Im planning on buying your book from AFN I just havent got it yet. In your book does it tell how to cast the lead pellets? Thanks again for the help. Jeff

thinking of casting some of my scrap lead into ingots in an old tart tin with cavities about an inch diameter by ~3/4 deep. Gerry :-)} London, Canada

Yep... two methods. One produces "pretty" media at the cost of extra labor. The other makes bad-looking pellets that beat round and smooth after a couple of hours' milling, but they make up REAL fast and easy.

The best shape for his "rock tumbling" application is a "square" radiused cylinder. It offers about the same apparent density in a mass as does spheres, but just a little more surface area; thus, more "rock grinding" per rotation of the milling jar.
