For local pick up only in Northeastern WI. I CAN arrange trucking ,to an extent, between NE WI to North Central Arkansas thru Illinois and Missouri....I can possibly get this thing to you along that route, call me to talk about this.
Basically I have a commercial deep fryer converted into a parkerizing system. The unit is 220 volts single phase with 4 heating elements. when the tank is cold, the 4 elements heat it up very quickly and then 2 of the elements are turned off to maintain parkeizing temperatures. The heat is thermostaticaly controlled.

The tank is removable for cleaning. I have the fryer baskets that can be used for dipping large quantities of small parts.

I have used this system for several years and it is still in excellent working condition. the tank is stained and crusty as any parkerizing system would be from use.

Price is just $150.00 for the whole system. it is too small for our future needs.... if you have any questions feel free to ask me...

The entire unit stands about 37" tall on its own stand. It has an under cabinet with pull out drawer too.

the tank is removable for cleaning.
the tank has a stepped form to it with an opening at the very top being about 3 1/2" inches or so deep with a 17X19" opening. then the tank narrows into the element areas where the size is about 5" deep by 11.5 X 13.5" inside of the elements. I can parkerize 18" barrels crossways in the tank.

the elements are inside of the solution and run around the inside perimeter of the tank. they are able to be pulled out as the entire heating heat hinges upward and out of the tank.

the dip baskets are SS also and are 5" X 5.5" X 13.5" with long SS handles. they have drain hooks on the baskets so you could hook them on a drip tank after the parts are pulled.

I am traveling through wisconsin from Green Bay to Beloit, then thru Rockford, IL through Bloomington and then down 55 through St. Loius, Mo to Rolla, MO and then south into AR......if your anywhere near this route i can meet you and get this thing to you atleast that far.

The system is presently at our shop>>>

Wish I was nearby. You can't buy a single stainless tank for that price.
Where have you been ? In the past I have offered SS tanks for "free" large enough to park a ma deuce with drain cock. $50 donation to a charity for cerebral palsy + shipping on the sister site www.M2HB.net
This offer for now has expired but might be available in the furure on a very limited basis as it was from jump. First come first serve about one a month. These were medical grade SS tanks. Oh yea only one per person.
If we decide to do this again in the future there will be a post here with a link to the other board.
I've often thought about using a fryer for parking. Lakeside Machine has a great offer here; anyone who hosts regular build parties should be interested in this great offer. Being 220 VAC heating elements might work just as well at 110VAC and possibly more stable as far as temp control. Just a thought. But real men have 220VAC in their Shoppe/Garage already. I'm suprised this hasn't been sold yet.

I am interested, I live in western IN and travel on 55 to Memphis. I need a park system BAD. Basement got flooded a couple weeks ago and RUSTED most of my parts kits. ( ever see a grown man cry ?) just about did that when I saw my M2HB kits sitting in a foot of water. I am at work now and will contact you later.

Just talked to Eric, And I will have to pass, not big enough for 50 bmg receivers

SOMEBODY NEEDS TO JUMP ON THIS!!!! the heater elements and the thermostat will set you back double what he is asking. if i didnt already have a 6 gallon and 15 gallon park tanks i would jump all over this.. do not pass this up, if not to stash it for a future deal....:eek:

The trouble is, I leave WI for my 800 mile run around midnight-1AM.....doubt you'd want to do a delivery at that hour!.

You are more than welcom to pick it up here. I "might" be be able to arrange someone to help you load it even if i'm not here. Let me know when your coming thru to Townsend...i'm just 3.5 miles off that trail!!
