Are there no farmers amongst this group?
Frost heave is easily seen every spring.  The rocks get pushed out of the 
ground and must be removed to prevent damage to equipment.

Its also noted that bigger rocks, laterally, come up quicker than smaller 
rocks!

Quick disconnect couplers

2004-12-29 Thread Andre' Schofield
Group,
 I have researched the couplers that have been brought up.  I contacted the 
company that makes them and gave them our use requirements.  I have obtained 
the part numbers for their recommendations and am getting pricing and 
availability info in the morning.  I'll post that when I receive it.

If you are interested in them after we get that info let me know.  I would 
be willing to handle a group purchase of them and get them disseminated to 
those that are wanting them.  The company that manufactures them is only a 
couple hours away as are several of their distributors.

Bert,
Those coupler would work to install a gas line into the on board fuel tank 
then?  That would certainly make things easier here.  I am working on adding 
a line to the onboard fuel tank so I can use the fuel regulator for propane. 
 I will have the propane tank run thru its regulator and then thru this 
connector into the fuel tank.  That way I can run propane during the winter 
and Butane for summer if I don't want to be hauling a trail car behind me 
all the time!

Bruce,
I'll assume the Spitinator will also work on the 3 cylinder Shay?
 If so please email me more info please!!

Re: anybody out there?

OK...how about this.
 Has anyone used the original gas regulator with propane?  Either via the 
onboard tank and another regulator to drop the propane tank pressure or 
bypassing the onboard tank completely?

Gentlemen,
The hungry effect occurs not with distilled water but with deionized 
water.  It draws the removed ions from the metals it comes in contact with 
and can cause serious damages over a long term.

Sam,
You could always build an appropriate body for the works of an NG loco?
I'm afraid you've never seen my work Sam.  To make that attempt would be a 
waste of good raw materials! hehehe

I have an Accucraft 3 piston Shay and love it but there is that beckoning of 
a British loco that I keep hearing.  Maybe its the influences of my Scottish 
Bride!

Someday I'll find the loco and the money at the same time!
