Squidley Posted September 28, 2013 #1 Posted September 28, 2013 I need the help of the brethren on this one... I am looking for a decent (read not harbor freight) parts washer. I have a 55 gallon drum so I really only need just the top tub. I want to get a reasonably deeper tub to hold larger items, and something that has a recirculating pump in it with a brush. I have looked at new complete ones, but they are on crack with the prices starting at $500. I know some of y'all have a bit more time to search for thing on the web than I do. So if you run across some deals or things that fit this bill, could you post them up here on this thread please
Huggy Posted September 28, 2013 #2 Posted September 28, 2013 Have you looked at TSC? They have them at there stores here in Canada and they are reasonably priced.
dacheedah Posted September 28, 2013 #3 Posted September 28, 2013 just a big tub from a farm store, put a 1 1/4 drain on it, a hardware screen over the drain on the bottom and a recirculating pump.
Gary N. Posted September 29, 2013 #4 Posted September 29, 2013 Brad, I have one here in the shop that's about 20 years old and never been used ie: I've never put solvent in and turned the pump on. I've only ever put a little in a cake pan inside of it and washed the part in that. It just takes up floor space in my shop. How's $50 sound? I can't deliver until January though. If it will fit in the trailer with everything else. I think it holds 5 gallons of solvent.
Gary N. Posted October 4, 2013 #6 Posted October 4, 2013 If he don't take it I will!!! Let you know as soon as I hear from Brad.
Trader Posted October 4, 2013 #7 Posted October 4, 2013 Sounds like a deal! $50 for the tub and $400 in gas. Texas is a LONG way from SW Ontario. Somehow I think Ground-Hugger got it. (only because he beat me to it.)
Yammer Dan Posted October 4, 2013 #8 Posted October 4, 2013 Sounds like a deal! $50 for the tub and $400 in gas. Texas is a LONG way from SW Ontario. Somehow I think Ground-Hugger got it. (only because he beat me to it.) Gary was going to deliver!! Its GONE!!

(only because he beat me to it.) I WISH I could drive to Texas for $400. Go'n anyway so no big deal. So long as I can find room in the trailer.
Squidley Posted October 5, 2013 Author #11 Posted October 5, 2013 just a big tub from a farm store, put a 1 1/4 drain on it, a hardware screen over the drain on the bottom and a recirculating pump. I'm thinking that this may be what I do. I'll buy a big used stainless sink and do a little plumbing If he don't take it I will!!! I have let Gary know that unfortunately I dont want to wait until January. Looks like your on the winning side of the countries
Gary N. Posted October 5, 2013 #12 Posted October 5, 2013 I'll go to Texas and steal it back!!!!! I guess you'll only have to come as far as Woodslee. It's yours if you want it.

BradT Posted October 28, 2013 #14 Posted October 28, 2013 It's still up for grabs if you're interested. I may be interested ? And I will even come and get it and we can visit real soon if needed, have not seen you two since last summer. Brad

Hazenson Posted October 29, 2013 #17 Posted October 29, 2013 The one that Bob posted is the one we have at work-- ours has a light mounted on it with a flex stem so ya can bend it and see inside when the lid is open. Other then that its the same thing- and works great. Just a tub that mounts on a 30 gallon barrell
BradT Posted October 29, 2013 #18 Posted October 29, 2013 Gary catch up on the phone or email. Thanks Brad
