I have been searching and reading everything in here about powering my new mill. I'm buggered if I can find a 1400rpm motor anywhere locally and a new or refurbished one was going to start a over $130.
One of the threads I read was a guy who bought an Ozito from Bunnings for $99 that seemed to have a low enough rpm to do the job. Can't remember if it was driving a MM2 or a millmaster. Anyway I can't find that thread again. Have tried the google site:ausiehombrewer bit and putting the + sign in the search engine hear. Has turned up all good stuff but not that thread again.
From memory the OPer referred to bunnings as bunningtons if that jogs any memory. I'm off to the big smoke today and was considering getting one of these ozito hammer drills. I think he said it had a spade handle so may have been this model linky It has no reference to the drills rpm though from what I can see. I have a cheapie dynalink hammer drill and when I tried that the other day it is WAY too fast.
I've been into the Bundy bunnings a few times since to try and get some more info or even buy one but supposedly at $99 they can't keep em on the shelves.
Any help would be appreciated.
