Tumbler

I have an old washing machine motor that runs really well and I would like to use it to build a tumbler for ducks. I want to use a 30 gal plastic barrel with baffles. Any ideas on how to connect with pulleys so that I can get a slow roll? I checked on buying a switch that could control the speed, but reastats for motors are pretty expensive. If you have any good ideas, please e-mail or respond.

Thanks,
poboy

Archives are the best bet.

Poboy look in the archives. I went through the same question's and answer's. I finally ended with a converted clothes dryer and a good quality saw dust from www.McKenziesp.com Much cheaper than trying to build one.

dryer

Just by an old dryer in a rumage sale for 20.00 bucks. Rinehart has some simple plans for converting. Works great
