    New Home Built Electric and Gas Splitter Project

    Thats what he is trying to say, to run the 11gpm pump at 3450rpm you need 5hp, 3 more hp than that motor will do. but if you go the other motor and run the pump at 1750rpm the 2hp may be ok.

    Firewood Processor

    You will have to put a pressure control valve in a seperate circuit for the saw. you may also need a flow control valve so the saw moves at a controlled speed when under no or little load.

    Get a small wood stove for your son. If he needs so much privacy he has to work for it.

    How do you guys haul your saws?

    Do local dealers or internet reseller's offer Stihl chainsaw discounts?

    I brought a little ms170 when they were having a big special on most saws. The bloke behind the counter worked out that he had to sell 10 at the special price to make back the same money as he would selling 3 at the normal price.
