ok mate got a 1m lenght of the tube now so if you need a longer one to reach i should be able to do it, just got to find 3/4 of the motors now not the origonal one i wanted :D :D :D

with all the conversions and farm building  and scratch builds going on this year and last year allone

it would make a prity dammed impressive display alltogether

but i dont think you would have the room for it all  :'(  ;)

ah sorted mate, only having 70's and 80's stuff on the layout so loads of space for me, this will hide in the grainery when not in use, got to make 2 long ones for the silo emptying to, i have all the holes in place just never made them

we had the blower type on the farm where i worked  on electric

you used to push and hold the leaver down for 15 seconds then lift the leaver

right up then the motor would realy speed up not to hot on electrics to know the

on off system that was ah and then you would open a vent on the end  of the blower

this would blow into the mill acros the yard or into the silo at harvest

i have a pto driven blower for my larger permastore silo out in the yard, but the internal one and the soon to be built external mini one dont use those so i had to build this one

Just a thought TM, if you are struggling for the Fyson motor why not try a piece of the dowel you get to peg together flat packed furniture, you can buy them by the bag from most DIY shops I would have thought and they have grooves in the side so would resemble a motor.  ;)
