Hi,
Some of you may remember me from three years ago when
I was in Iraq. These days I am back in Michigan
working on producers again. I have a Farmall "H" with
a buzzsaw attached to the front of the tractor. The
engine is powered by a handbuilt producer of Doug
Williams' design (see Fluidyne pioneer class) which is
fueled by blocks cut by the saw. I am sawing scrap
slab wood for home heating and power production. Now
that the "H" is up and working, I am proceeding to
build a producer to power a 1964 GMC 1-ton pickup
(305E V-6 engine) to be fueled by blocks from the "H".
I would like to thank Thomas B. Reed for making
available the periphreal infomation and also the
fellows at VEDBIL.SE for their inspiring U-tube
videos, and of course G. Bush Inc. for their
motivational fuel pricing.
I am one of the poorest citizens of the US so I am
the first to feel the change in the US culture with
regards to transportation costs. I greived my truck
and walked for a while. Then realized I would rather
do something about it rather than despair and watch
TV. So this is a message from the bottom to the more
affluent yet still vulerable folks on the list, you
too can continue on with minor inconveinence. Its
unfortunate that most people won't do anything until
its too late.
Tom, email me for pictures if you have any interest
in my endeavors.
Thanks Bruce P. Jackson
