Dont let Bill Bane see that propane heater. Nice job with upgrades.

 

[Desk Jockey]

I bet that puppy has some heat & suck to it now!

Tell us about the difference in cleaning.

 

[The Asian Sensation]

Where do you keep your Vacuum and rotary?

 

[Steve Lawrence]

Doesn't seem like it should even be called a Bane. What's actually still stock on it?

 

[vincent]

Vacuum,cimex was out of the truck for the pics, I use a host machine for agitation and its behind the generator, no rotary.

Its does clean much better and faster, its a completely different machine.

 

[harryhides]

Very nice, Vince but is it CRI approved ???

 

[Brian L]

Way too clean. Throw some grime around that van and then take some more pics. Nice work.


PS, I will give you $50.00 for the Westpak Wand.

Nice propane heater, were did ya get it? How many three stage vacs or what size blower on that bad boy. Interesting, very interesting......... 8)

 

[vincent]

Harry
Thanks alot

Brian
NO

Jay
2 vac motors in the box on top of the tank, don't know the size. Got the heater from our friend Adam in TX.

Only thing left of bane is the tanks & reels, some chemicals.

 

[Jay D]

dude did you or do you use the vac booster also and how many cords with the booster also plugged in.

 

[vincent]

Jay

3 plugs are run to the generator and when I use the booster, I plug in at the customer's home.

 

[Greenie]

That is sweet!

a little birdie told me those are some BIG vac motors in that diamond plate, I'll bet she sucks good without the booster, and now that you are cooking with gas, and 500 psi, it just gets better and better and better.

I see you have a blueline ergo handle on that wand, from the pic the head looks like a CMP, but I could be wrong, one single jet manifold, or two?

 

[Mikey P]

I could perform open heart surgery before I could figure out how to turn that thing on....

 

[Becker]

After meeting you at Connection Mr. Sapp I would have never guessed you have you shit together.

These pictures cause me to reevaluate my opinion of you.

Thanks a lot.

(looks sweet, very sharp, but tell us. How does it perform?)

 

[Guest]

It will suck better than a 2 dollar hooker riding on a Hydramaster HydraCat.

She gets real hot real quick with no whining or begging.

Just so everyone knows, Terry, Chad and Greenie were a great help in putting this together.

Countless phone calls, alot of thinking and terry's patience were instrumental in making this happen.

All of the components work flawlessly.

I thank you all again.

 

[Becker]

ya build it yourself with tect support?

Good for you!

Not bad for a county bumpkin!

 

[vincent]

I love you Don, and thanks for the compliments.

 

[Guest]

You can tell him to go and FLOCK himself. Its the Mikey Board!




Chad

 

[Becker]

Why for telling him nice work?

I'll bet it has a cup holder just for chew spit.

Am I right?

 

[JohnnyV]

Wow Vincent that looks very nice....Too dang clean to be a working van tho. I should be so busy. So, I'm sure that the performance is so much better than the original. Quieter too? I hope.

You still have that protector?


JohnnyV.

 

[vincent]

Don
Yes on the cup holder, 3 to be exact

And JohnnyV
Yes

 

[Mikey P]

Is that 2.5 hose on the reel?

What is that orange thing beneath the hose reels?

What are you tank capacity's?

 

[MicahR]

Souping up a Bane is like running a race in the Special Olympics. Even if you win your still retarded.

LoL.

Wow nice clean unit and I could understand making it perform better than stock, but I have to ask why?

Is it the fun of doing it yourself?

Is it to try and save money?

Why not spend the extra money and put it into a larger truckmount? Especially one with a much smaller footprint.

 

[Becker]

The way you reply Terry it sounds like you built it. Is that the case?

 

[Guest]

It has more suck than a Prochem's..and can keep up with a Vortex...and uses 7 gallons of gas for the kid a week and a tank of propane once every 2-3 weeks.


So to use a TM for $15 a week that can kick a Prochem's ass....would you use it?



Chad

 

[vincent]

To answer the questions above.

No dist close to me had big tanks

I already had electric reels

The tanks & reels are only 4 yrs old.

Money was a huge factor, why spend 15k + when I had a good base to build.

Cheap to run and extremely simple to maintain

Replacement parts can be found a few miles from my house.

The footprint doesn't bother me, I have plenty of storage. I removed a great deal of equipment & chems to better show the modifications.

It was fun and frustrating at times, but well worth the effort.

Not only I am retarded, but Im stupid too. LOL

ps. Notice Odin's & Chad's comments>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

[Greenie]

It's a smarter rig than many here realize, Chad hit some high points.

When the booster is inline, you would be surprised.

Many here would gladly trade tank capacities, and quality stainless at that!
Let's not forget that elec. reel, actually if you are still running manual reel or are a distributor selling manual reels you are living in the stone age, your customers deserve better.

I'm more than certain he has more heat than most, and no waiting for the machine to warm up.

The vac unit is the same base unit in our dualBooster, when I first fired it up at SummerFest I was pleasantly surprised at what those vac motors pulled you would be too. Actually it helped a lot to confidently sell Odin's boosters to those looking for a kick at 200'.

Vincent's cost to run all week would make many here cry when they looked at the balance sheet.

 

[Guest]

Just think if he would of figured out how to put that thing in a Sprinter...it would cost him what....$60 a month in fuel to go those 600 miles....20 for LP, and then that $15 a week for gas.


Damn guy would spend in a month what I spend in 3 days.


Oh yeah, its a big POS from Home Depot. HR, don't sue us for using Chem-Dry parts now.
