Pro generator

Last week we had a bad windstorm I live near I 77, it blew three eighteen wheelers over three miles from my house, I bought this gererator several years ago but didn’t like running my tractor twenty three hundred rpm to generate power so I found this Hatz two cylinder diesel around ten years ago with thoughts of it running my gen,so after the wind and being without power for thirty Hoyt I thought it was time to convythe generator , when I removed the gearbox off gen I found the armature was supported by bearing in gearbox so I had to turn armature and bore housing for bearing then built a trailer for it, I’m getting close to finishing

 

Auto spell

 

That'll be a really nice set up when finished. Well worth the effort I think. Nice work.

 

Cool project. THanks for sharing.

 

Thanks fellows, finished it up today would like to take it back apart and paint sometime, but probably need to cut more wood

 

Looks nice but that engine sure seems small for the generator especially if its 1800 rpm.

 

Hmm, need more pics of the goodies and projects in the shop...

 

Nice job!!

 

Bushpillot have a couple model t Ford’s and a 31 model A Tudor just started working on a 32 roadster I’ve had 10-12 years and starting back together

 

That's a sweet looking machine you have there. It looks well cared for.

 

1915, the seat machine belongs to a friend,I have a kwik way but his works better on the T and A blocks
