So what did you do today?

Wilhelm - if you can equip your mill with an inverter and vary the speed you will have much greater control over the finished particle size. Too low of RPM and the hammers (beaters) and pins will begin to wear from rocking.

Mark

It is a very simplistic mill, basically a steel fan swirling the grains against the mesh till it smashes to small enough pieces to pass through the meshes holes.

The previous OEM meshes held up for years, then a couple more years after my dad fixed sections that wore through.
My new custom made ones are twice as thick, they should withstand the tooth of time quite well.

Unwanted inclusions like pebbles, stones, or steel pieces are the culprits of excessive early mesh wear.
The rpm seems OK.

I love it! Yes it is simple in ways. But you let your own mind get creative and think outside the box, no plans or blue print, just you wing'n it. We all need to tap into are own artistic creativity and not worry about disapproval and let the world see.

Today I had a cal fire crew come in & I had to explain how their 462 wouldn't be so hard to start if their spark plug was actually screwed in

Bucked up a 2+ year old tan oak log deck. Many of the smaller logs were buried underneath the bigger logs going towards the fir/downhill. Lots of sweeping and scraping. Rolled the rounds over to my buddy who was splitting them and tossing them in our trucks, then delivered to our little old lady friend/client. I've been doing her firewood for the last 5-6 years since her husband died.



More than halfway through, didnt get any finished-photos:

This is a cal fire incident but I haven't seen a single 462 yet..... so far i've seen
6 372xps
3 461's
2 500i's
1 362

one guy brought in a 461 yesterday that looked beautiful, like barely used. they couldn't get the E clip off on sprocket. I started looking at it and realized that one of them had tried to cut chaps with it. the fiber had bound under the sprocket washer so tight I ended up cutting off the E clip with a dremel!

Wow…6 372’s? Hopefully not all catastrophic failures and just stupid stuff…like chap material bound up under a sprocket washer lol.

3 scored top ends, one had a plug wire grounding out and 2 just needed a little carb tweak to idle better….. actually 7 total, one more had a broken trigger interlock.

I took my 89-year-old Pa to his Urologist appointment today, he has a slight UTI, and it was rescheduled till Aug 20.
Had an impromptu lunch with my son, his wife, and two of my grandkiddos @ Chili's.
Big Fun, Bla-Blag grub, but a rare moment in time

apes are the handlebars. when tue handlebars are really long and go above the riders shoulder. when you ride it looks like an ape hanging on a tree......apes is short for ape hangers

A "ape" has a different meaning out here in the country but I cannot explain more without pissing off folks

If you lower the handlebars, a flying scooter from Star Wars will appear
