[papercreters] Peristaltic pump

I came across an older Delasco peristaltic pump on ebay and would appreciate hearing some thoughts on how helpful it would be in handling materials.

 

The seller has 2, the smaller one appears to be capable of 2-10 gallons per minute. Asking price is $950 plus $300 freight delivery from NH to MN. He says the whole assembly, gear box, pump & motor weighs 300-350#.

 

After the great discussion of grinder pumps & exploring the “reckless experimentation” site a lot of things are starting to look like papercrete tooling. The local building supply has a 1hp GE disposer & a deep, laundry sink that looks like a 25 gallon mixer wanting to happen for about $200.

 

A new, 1 1/2hp, 1-8gpm pump from www.eccentricpumps.com is $3200 plus shipping.

 

Any experience & insights appreciated.
