OT - New Crusher!

That is a neat looking piece of history. Thanks for sharing,Roy

That thing is beyond awesome. :hail: I've been keeping my eye out for a vintage crusher for several years (only a little smaller:biggrin1😊 since my property is ripe with rocks and every field edge has huge piles of them just waiting for something to do!

Tell me you're going to ditch the boring electric motor and fit it out for belt work off the RD6 or Gas Seventy (or whatever coolest old timer you have with a belt pulley). That's a video I'd watch all day long! (probably at Sasquatch's place by the sounds of it...)

That crusher is over the top cool. Belt it up and get to crushing.

That crusher puts my little Stover hammer mill to shame. Course my little lime.crusher needs a total rebuild. Maybe of I can get all the parts home, this could be my summer project if I can get the time and $$$ to work together. My Stover lime hammer mill is a WPA machine from a quarry in the Illinois bluffs. I purchase new chain and buckets for it years ago, now where did I pit them?

Hey Dieselholic92,

Way too cool 😎... very very cool...

Thanks guys! Here's what I would really like to do, but I'm not sure how difficult it will be. We have an old D13000 that powers our Universal 880 crusher. We are going to retire the D13000 to the collection soon and I would like to make it run this crusher. I don't know if I would mount it on the front of this one or leave it on wheels and run the crusher from the ground.

thanks for the Pic as that thing is way cool. it looks a little BIGGER than i thought. you might have a hard time keeping it feed with the old 922B or is that why you got 2 ? lol

It would have more cool factor if it was on its own chassis and you had to belt it up, but wouldn't be as practical as direct mounted. I reckon separate but close coupled with some square tube coupling arms so that it's easy to get into correct belting position would be one option. Having that engine close to the ground would be a winner at your local shows.
