Yes sir

 

[MrLee]

Looking good! I need to get one of those. The wife is starting to complain about my boxes full of ore.

 

[NJnuggetpirate]

i hope i can recognize a good vein when i see one

 

[DizzyDigger]

Awesome thread HB, and I too am looking forwrd to the reports of how this
vein plays out! (and also about the RJ crusher, as I've got a 14" on my Christmas
list!)

It seems that all of your pics are showing up 90º to the left. They are .png format,
so I'm unable to save them, rotate to correct position and re-post. Would it be possible
for you to rotate the images prior to posting them? Simple to do, and makes it a hellofa
lot easier to view them (keeping my head cocked like that makes me dizzieranhell..lol)

 

[hbprospector]

I'll try and fix them, I load them from my phone.

 

[Reed Lukens]

Thanks for the pic. We thought about buying one of these and I talked to him on the phone. He said he wouldn't send me a pic of the inside because I could copy it and make my own... So I wrote him off being I'm a retired engineer and am capable of making my own without his pics. But for the $500 he was asking, it was cheaper for me to buy it from him, but he couldn't figure that one out and wouldn't budge. I suggested feet for his and a jaw crusher, etc. He liked the ideas but wouldn't cut loose... lol So you answered my question for him

Here's a fixed pic ¬¬

Reed,
It took one month to the day for me to get it. I also could have built one but it was way cheaper to buy his. I would not buy from him again. It is very well built though and worth the money. I think when I go bigger I will price out materials and build my own. At least the wait will be on my terms of tinkering. Lol

 

[Reed Lukens]

Yea his prices are really good and a month right now would be cutting it close

that rock crusher unit , how many watt Gen. would it take to power the machine at min. ? Its not gas only is it ?

 

[trikeman72]

New crusher

Ahhhhh u got the one with gas engine. Sweet. I'm going with electric motor crusher only cuz I'm taking my gas powered generator with me. I also got a 110v jackhammer/drill so I'm stoked.
Told them to hold on my order tho. I seen another seller with same kind of design usin different name on eby and color looks to be only difference. And it is like 200 less?? Just got leerie and 200 beans in a big saving if same crusher lol.
Awesome that u got color on first rock!! I've got tons of tailings with visible gold/silver so this excites me
Thanks for pics
