[papercreters] boat blade has been used as PC mixer

Like I said great concept but pc's got to many clog/wear out problems
involved in it when using a boat motor as a mixer.But if someone has got around
them I'm all for it pass on the word.

Hi all.. John Stahl is a hemp papermaker
He used his skills with paper making, to combine use of a Hammermill
[paper beater] and a rubber drum and boat turbin.
HE TOOK A RUBBER BARREL, CUT DOWN, ATTACHED A BOTTOM DRAIN, AND WARPED THE ROUND
SHAPE TO WORK BETTER FOR SWIRLING THE PAPER FORCEFULLY.
A flip of a switch starts the action moving the paper around. A small
boat turbine blade is attached to a stem.
The stem is bolted to the post and attached to a 1/2 Hp electric motor
in this case. The drum is elevated on
wood blocks; and the material is gravity drained into a wheel barrow
John pushes under the drain hole.

so this has been done, about 8-9 years ago.

I have pics of the drum and blade set up.
will attempt to upload to the photos section.
