@GrandWagJeep All the more reason to carry a shotgun through the woods... Just don't shoot the pump jack! LOL

[GrandWagJeep]

If I were walking through those woods and I didn't know what was making that sound, I'd think a rabid elk was about to trample me. LOL!

Wow, this unit must require an air compressor bigger than a pump jack unit. How much CFM and Psi is required to run this unit? What kind of compressor is powering it can we see it too? Thanks, Paul

I thought an air head was a ditzy blonde

@0812201: You can use air in a steam cylinder, but not steam in an air cylinder. These were designed specifically to run on compressed air.

Not to my knowledge,the old steam engines were removed and these took their place
