cast iron exhaust pot

I would think thats like looking for Hens teeth or rocking horse Do do's

Mart> Bit of a long shot, but I wondered if anyone has a cast iron exhaust

As they are so uncommon now, I'm surprised no-one has had a few generic types cast up - they must be pretty simple, after all.

I've had no luck finding one for my crossley, I ended up making one out of a large piece of box section about 6mm thick it looks the part but i'm not sure how it will perform. I hav'nt run it yet.

I'd expect that for low usage it was easier to just weld them up from steel.

Making things with a taper, then a bit of tarting with a grinder can make welded steel look pretty close to "cast"

Went through this when someone unkind soul stole my big Tangye pot. Now loking to do it for a big Blackstone pot.

I have seen a couple of very realistic looking constructs using one or more propane/calor gas bottles Cut into sections & rewelded. I'm sure that would work for 7hp -- getting a bit harder for 12.5hp that I want. Orig was 2ft 6" diameter. I suspect some creativity around the scrap yard is called for ..... or follow the man laying a new sewer & find out where his offcuts go!
