Corn Grinder Accessory for My Eclipse Engine |

I've been looking for an accessory for my full sized Eclipse |
|
engine to take to shows. People attending the shows seem to |
|
like to see the engines doing something, but the accessories are |
|
heavier than the engines! I needed something that I could pick |
|
up and move easily. I found this corn grinder at a local sale, |
|
and it already had the belt drive pulley on it. It seemed the |
|
perfect match for my Fairbanks-Morse Eclipse engine. |

As Jan said ... Nice set-up and nice to have an appropriate load |
|
to run. |

My son loves to see corn grinders. |
|
Perhaps extend the cart, so the two are married together? |

I could belt it up to that. |

This is a great paring Doug. I like that the corn grinder is |
|
proportional to the engine. I think it would be cool to put the |
|
corn grinder on a small cart like the one on your Eclipse. You |
|
could pull it behind your Eclipse Engine Cart. |
