- evgen 10y agoThey make many pressure rated air hoses in those communities? Didn't think so. As previous poster noted, it is all effectively arbitrary window dressing.
- lostboys67 10y agoIf it where the case they should be using belt drive driven by wind/horse power - until fairly recently mech eng techs in the uk where taught how to design belt drive systems
- evgen 10y agoBelt drives are far more limited and attached tools are not mobile in any way whatsoever. Not even close when it comes to substitution technology.
