[QUOTE="Alex, post: 36888, member: 822"] Hi everyone, I thought i'd share my petrol driven rock crusher. It's a 11hp Honda driving the crusher and the crusher chamber is about 250mm in diameter. I got my ideas from the "Reeds rock crusher" that is found on the reeds prospecting shop website.

I should have mounted it on rubber bushings but I was in a hurry so it will do for now as is.

Can easily take 2-3 inch diameter pieces of quartz no problems. Was very cheap to make. The internals are similar in design to the reeds version, hardfaced leading edges on the crusher fins.
