Just picked up 5 Honeywell PIDs for $10. Guy didn't have a clue what they were. And now I don't really know what good they are. Anyone familiar with Honeywell PIDs?
I have 4 ea. Of a UDC1000 Micro pro model DC100L10001000
And 1 ea. Of a UDC1200 Micro pro model DC120271001000

Tried to look them up. A little cornfusing as to what they can do. But I do see I can make a good buck off them on eBay. :thumbup:

Like new 30:1 reduction gear for my mash paddle mixer, $30. I thought it was a good deal. Free 1/2 hp motor even better deal,
love joy coupler, scrap flat bar, round stock and a fab shop to fab and powder coat my paddle for free? Priceless. :clap:

Now I just need the time to put this thing to work.

A great deal for the $30 invested. Everything, frame, paddle column and paddle brackets were welded and are receiving abrasive blast and powder coat this week. I have to make a template for the paddles, cut them out and bolt them on the mixer when I get it back.

I was at a local welding supply house on Friday, and help a guy out with his purchase to his truck only to see he had 4" copper pipe that he was taking to the scrap yard! Ask what he wanted for some? Told me 3 bucks a pound! I pulled out a 7fter and it weight 32 pounds! Gave him 90 bucks for it! The last time I bought 4", it cost 56 bucks a foot!
