Thread: hydraulics for my rotisserie

If I remember right ???you'll need a piston motor to do that a vain motor will not hold. Teliscoping cylinders will go low enough to get car off stands and go high enough to turn when up. These are Very expensive parts. Be sure to incorperate an accumulator in the circuit

I don't know, heck, define expensive I guess. I've already got so dang much money invested in tools and equipment what's another thousand??? My last toolbox cost $4500.00 and change, yesterday I priced the additions I want for it with Snap-on John, that'll be another $3K.... Heck, no other bad hobbies, don't even have a boat to take to the river and go fishing anymore. The shop and Hot Rods is all I do..... If I have to spend a few bucks to get things the way I want them, it's worth if for me.... Since I sold the big shop, I don't really have much for expenses anymore. Heck, if it costs $2K to put the thing together that's less then I used to pay in taxes, insurance, payments, and workman's comp in a month.....Betcha I get more use out of my new rotisserie then I ever got out of throwing that money out the window every month!!!!!

Besides Charlie.....almost done with customer cars and it's time for my own toys now!!!!!
