Thanks Steve, these bikes are lots of fun especially seeing places you can’t really get too. I’ve been riding for a while but never did the dual sport thing. This bike particular the seats not bad but I do understand why people say dirt bikes can be uncomfortable. My biggest thing right now is riding shortly on the highway above 90km hour this bike likes to wobble with any wind, kinda freaky man. I’m trying to find a damper that I could use to put on it. I was reading lots of people find this bike likes to do that. Hope all is well man.

@@Josefppaz A wobbly bike can be plenty scary, and I have been lucky, as all of mine have been steady, at all speeds :) . Looks like this one wood be best for the dirt tracks, up in the hills, as speed is kinda hard to attain out there. All is good here, and I am building a shiny new machine shop for the farm. Actually, it is for me, but I am claiming it is for the farm ;) .

@@CNCmachiningisfun new machine shop sounds like fun man that’s another hobby I enjoy doing Steve. A couple of years ago I bought a lathe and milling machine it’s so much fun when you can make something from nothing to something. It’s definitely one of those things were you can completely zone out and enjoy what your doing for the present time. This is another reason I got this bike too, go in the middle of nowhere and have a cup of coffee. New Zealand looks absolutely beautiful. Saw this video and thought I have to start doing this. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWaTdoGPnLamaNUfeature=shared Awesome to hear about the machine shop man looking forward to see what you got going on Steve.

@@Josefppaz Your new lathe and milling machine sound like mighty fine additions to your workshop space, and yes, they can be rather addictive :) . Our man caves have to be properly fitted out, if we are to zone out, and become one with our robot overlords. Now, of course, you have the ability to make more robot overlords, right there in the workshop ;) . That video looks great, and it does a fine job of reminding us of just how beautiful New Zealand is. Too often, we forget about this, as we participate in the rat race, down in the cities. Seems like you have got your priorities right, my fellow creator :) .

@@CNCmachiningisfun Thanks Steve 👍👍👍

No it’s gone man mainly was an experimental project of proof of concept. Some time again I may build a micro gasifier machine. But as for a working gas for generators there is a ton of cleaning involved. I think the more user friendly gas would be hydrogen, using solar energy.

Just the one short one

I believe the only thing I had was a blower motor in that black box, siliconed the box to be for air tight. But literally the main thing was those water scrubbers did an awesome job

@@Josefppaz Thank you very much

I think the best method is cover the wood your going to use. Any moisture will create more tar in the system. Dried out wood is the best. I think that’s what your asking

Hi man was a while ago but it definitely was like this www.amazon.ca/AGPtek%C2%AE-Aluminum-Fountain-Atomizer-Humidifier/dp/B00P8V4KIO/ref=asc_df_B00P8V4KIO/?tag=googlemobshop-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312833183742&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=3655913456275422136&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9001346&hvtargid=pla-570657942909&psc=1&mcid=f373e15edc0b3a7d8fec7f439769255b

Definitely interesting. I can see that would work pretty good. I’m guessing it would come down to cost. I liked what I used with antifreeze especially in the winter. I’m also thinken with oil will be a little more viscosity when cold and should need more of a suction for the gas to be vacuumed. Interesting to do some experimenting. When I did my test I know that these machines are very finicky with air fluid flow through the system. Thanks for sharing

Thank you

Thank you glad you enjoyed

Thanks man this was before I had any machining tools long ago.

Thank you very much

Love what you are doing with the system. I have a million dollar question for you. Do you think it is possible to use a chamber to create bio-char ? I was also hoping when I do mine to incorporate 2 gas lines, one for generator and the other for feeding gas appliances. Thinking also of running some feet of copper for heating water. For me this gasifier is a game changer, no matter where you live can use one. Keep up the good work, look forward to hearing from you.

@@Don-sx5xv sorry for not getting back to you sooner. bio char maybe but the area being super heated is very little and creating char would very or if at all non existent. Don’t get me wrong you can still try and experiment. The problem with these gasification processes is if it is not hot enough produce a lot of tar in the system. Cleaning is the main problem and explosion risks are very high due to oxygen still present in the gas mixture. If you do run pipes clean the gas beforehand but the risks of your pipes exploding with a flash back may happen. It can be very dangerous. Mainly the gas is used for a engine generator. Interestingly when I did my experiments the BTU of the gas is very low. When I ran my engine for about 20 min the engine was warm to the touch but not extremely hot. Not sure if this was the wood I had at the time but was very interesting to see. If you make gasification I’m curious if you use the gas to heat up for cooking if it does get very hot for you. All the best

@@Don-sx5xv also Don I forgot to mention if I did this again i would personally use hydrogen made with solar panels, instead of wood gas which is more cleaner gas meaning no tar to clean up 👍.

@@Josefppaz Josef you are absolutely correct here, plus it sounds like you speak from experience regarding explosive rating. imagine HHO and the Sun being a savior for the energy sector. I am of the Parallel Society, sustainable group. The next weapons of attack will be food and energy. I believe that the current empire is crumbling, I am no longer a willing participant in there plot, anything that I can do to not support Mega works perfect for me. I hope to see some updates on your channel soon on HHO, in the mean time I will get to work and keep you posted. Hope to have everything in place by winter.

Been a while man. I believe I used a landing gear wheel holder from rc airplanes to hold the cable. I just used things which was laying around but easy way was just to crimp a wire housing around the cable and solder it. 👍

No particular design just the video. Should work for anyone. I never made any drawings

@@Josefppaz yeah just hoping to make it faster was all. Thank you for sharing what you did. Have a blessed day

@@cmwatcds1 glad to have helped 🙂

Just used antifreeze and that Venturi effect with that sink drain idea I had. Works perfect 👍

Glad it helped you out cheers

Thanks Allan

No your not wrong. This was mainly all just an experiment to see what can be used. Definitely other ways to cut the wood if there was a power outage. but for experimental purposes if there are houses being developed near by, usually people are generous on giving wood scraps for free.

For the return line of the antifreeze / water I used clear vinyl tubing to see the appearance of the liquid. If it’s dirty I just drain it. Cyclone separator could be plausible but I never tried it. 😉

@@Josefppaz Thanks, keep it up, very important topic for the times we live in

Thank you

Thanks Jerry mine was a down draft gasifier. The size depends on the size of engine to use. KZbinr Flash001USA has great videos and I believe specific drawings on a website that he gives out freely. Lots of great info on the web. As far as I know most work just fine 👍

The configuration I’m gonna use has the grate nearer to the heat affected burn zone . I’m hoping it will help have a more complete burn. 4” -5” from jets to the grate . We shall see.

😂

Hi Ricky interestingly I found when I ran my little engine for about 20 minutes, the engine ran very cool to the touch. I wonder if this wood gas has less BTU for heat, mind you it was a cold day. As far as harvesting the gas I haven’t tried it. I would be very cautious even to try. The gas still has lots of oxygen going through the system, would be interesting to have a oxygen meter present to see. I have seen people wanting to compress the gas but I am not an expert on doing so. I find it can be very dangerous but it’s a different story if you know what you can do. As far as getting rid of the oxygen present in the gas I think there could be ways but lots of work. This type of gas is great for running a generator for a heater, but to replace propane that’s a good question. Best way to see how much carbon dioxide is present with wood gas maybe to measure with some gas meter. Unfortunately something i never tried. If the heater was in a garage I would rather heat it up with a rocket stove. Sorry could help much Ricky.

I did Herri interestingly when I tried my little 5 HP engine I did a test run for about 20 min. The engine ran very cool. It was warm but not extensively hot to the touch. I’m guessing the wood gas’s has a very low BTU value.

Mainly for experimental purposes but thanks for watching

Thanks man 👍

😆

@@Josefppaz I knew a guy in school that was always makin electronc gizmos that shocked people. He literally turned everyone into Pavlov's dog. After a while, people would avoid him or at minimum, watch where his hands were. He didnt even have to have anything in his hands. He would just walk up to them and say, "BZZZZT" and poke them in the side and they would jump out of their shoes. Theres a term for those kinda people, but I'm trying to keep my youtube account. 😂😂

Glad to have helped 👍

Sounds good Ivan hhahaha should have said that

I did put another video up

Thanks bud

Thanks man. It was a fun experiment. So many things on KZbin are fake, this was the main reason I wanted to see if I could run a engine on it, and it worked👍. Not sure when but I would like build a smaller device. The one thing that I disliked is the amount of cleanup for this machine. The tar can be a big issue. If I would build another device I think I would use hydrogen as a fuel rather then this gas. Happy you liked the video

@@Josefppaz I understand your personal adversity to the thing being dirty, I don't think that you'd like having a wood fireplace versus gas-logs. But for what it is to those of us who hate paying for something that's already been paid for decades ago (electricity) by our forefathers the dirtiness of it is the last and least concern. Is hydrogen not what the gasifier supplies that runs the ice?

@@jcksnghst not sure what you mean by ice. But your right there is hydrogen methane gases. With the tar it produces can clog the machine not to work. There are other ways producing hydrogen cleaner buy as an example solar panels. No clogging or cleaning any machine pipes, less maintenance 👍

@@Josefppaz internal combustion engine

@@Josefppaz solar panels? Cool, I haven't heard of that, ways to run an ice with hydrogen via solar panels? For real, thank you for your time.

Thanks man. Your idea sounds great 👍. This machine was just a experiment just to see if it works which it did. To clean the gases earlier is always a bonus.

@@Josefppaz I posted a link about my invention but it got deleted 2 times. Did you do it or do you have any idea why it got deleted 2 times?

@@ss-sq1hn interesting no I didn’t do this but it has happened to me too I wanted to show someone a video link and it just deleted on me aswell. Not sure why this happens, thanks for letting me know maybe KZbin thinks it’s spam or something in that area. But your not the only one it’s happened to.

@@Josefppaz Maybe it is just algorithm thinking it was a spam. Or energy ministry got alerted.

Thanks man 👍

Cheers 🍻 thanks man

I did and put it in the videos interesting it didn’t show up for ya ?

@@Josefppaz I did find it. When I upload my engine I’ll give a shout...

Hi Ted I used antifreeze with a mixture of water . For the amount I never really measured but I figured it would be a gallon a minute or a bit more 👍just as long there was a steady stream coming out of the hose barbs inside the abs pipe. I used to use saw dust but I found this way is way better

Thanks man unfortunately I don’t have a PDF but used KZbin guy ( Flash001USA) he has great video tutorials

@@Josefppaz lol I've been checking his chanel out too. Does this set up have a specific name? I know there's FEMA but unsure of this one.

@@BryanBeast13 yes it is or a down draft gasification 👍👍

@@Josefppaz thank you for replying. I appreciate it, have a good day

@@BryanBeast13 up bet any other question just ask 😉

Right on Chris thanks for the tip the last video i did was that I found I need two set springs to hold the fuel nozzle together this is why I was having issues on start up aswell. It’s amazing how vibration loosens things up. So my mixture was way to rich or the spray wasn’t fine enough. Anyway have a great day man cheers 🍻
