> 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
