Dan Loehr - 11/4/2023 08:44 Asked a week or so back -- advice what PT spreader to buy---
https://talk.newagtalk.com/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=1134718&posts=... I can't find what I like commercially built SO think about putting something together Plan: mount this PTO driven spreader on a skid -put 1' extension and lid top of hopper -power spreader with a $150 212 CC --6.5 HP predator engine --set skid on trailer My good friend who would stop in with "If you can build that for $2000 bet you can buy it for $1000" is no longer with us
(RIP Sonny
) Seems so simple :-

Why screw around - sell all that stuff and then go purchase this . . . . $1000 bucks -- saving you $1000 ~

If you want to use what you have (mentioned/pic'd above), then you can easily drive the spinner with a 12volt electric motor - Why screw around with engine to maintain and keep running ?
