A while back I asked some questions about parts washers and
received many helpful replies. I just got everything together
and wanted to let everyone know how it turned out.
Parts involved:
Plastic wash tub from home depot
15 gal rear end grease barrel
Small utility pump
Flow through brush from Grainger
Misc plastic tubing and fittings
Filter ( plastic, sold as water filter )
I decided to go with the regular green parts washing solvent as
it has some anti-rust additives which remain on the parts. 10
gallons did the trick. The sink is large enough to hold a 4
cylinder block and is deep enough to keep the splashing down.
If I plug the sink I can partially fill it and soak parts in it.
Next addon a nice cover for the sink and maybe some additional
bracing.
