Big Sale Has Started - UPDATED 07-31-25 (01 Apr 2025)

As some of you know my dad passed away 2 months ago today, on May 31, 2025. I posted it in the Members Only section when it happened. Thanks to all of you who have offered kind words on the forum, with phone calls, and visits in person during this time.

The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. I don't have the manpower, or the desire to do a big event like originally planned, I just need to sell a lot of parts that are taking up too much space here. I have been told and believe we are overloaded with Wheel Horse parts like no one has ever seen. Peeps have already been coming in from different parts of the country and buying a lot of stuff due to seeing the sale page, and seeing we are the only Wheel Horse only business in the USA that does things on the scale we do. The sale will continue for awhile until I free up some more space but you may not want to wait too long as things are being sold every day and there are limits to how many of certain parts will be sold.

As it says on the page it is still under construction and the page isn't finished yet. I've had a ton of calls for parts and the Big Sale Page may help answer some questions about what is here before peeps call. I hope that page is also clear that we DO NOT SHIP anything... This is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

What are you up to?

Can you box it and put a squirrel cage fan on it? The first stove we had we enclosed and made our own wood furnace.


I run a 400 cfm fan over the stove to push heat around the house. Stove is 1/4 plate with a glass door so we can enjoy the fire, but I would like to put some type of auto damper control on it.

I got to mow yesterday, hopefully for the last time, but we'll see.


I've been sitting in a chair all day reading, learning, and looking for a bigger air compressor that will work for us. Lots of types and options, then there's the how to do the 3 phase thing. My head is about to explode...

3 phase is the boss for big efficiency and power, Rotary Screw with 10 hp 3p should do it.

I hope this is the last of the snowball Naps. :tounge2


I talked to the Quincy guys yesterday and finally found the easy way to figure cfm on air compressors. Most good piston types, 3- 3.1 cfm per hp, most rotary style 4 - 4.3 cfm. A lot of industrial compressors don't state cfm because they use that formula and figure most people know it, I didn't till yesterday lol.

We have found a company doing 10hp V4 compressors in a low rpm piston type that will do almost the same output as a screw type. These do 3.8 cfm per hp and they have a 10hp 220 volt setup. Either way we go, at 10hp will need 2 of either of them, or at least 20hp in a single. We need 50cfm just to run the cabinet as hard as we want to. :)
