Pellet stoves

[PhilBurandt]

OK I heat my house with a pellet stove.I use to get my corn from my neighbor in trade for helping him fix his farm equipment. With corn at 5.00 a bushel i don't think he would want to give me 250 bushels of corn.I would like to make my own pellets out of straw or hay.Has anybody ever seen a pellet machine that runs off of a tractor PTO?

Hello Phil

I came across this web page with pellet making machines. Been looking myself, but I already have mine for next winter

Correction on that short cut, grabbed the wrong one.
But it does have a pic of a gas engine connected to a pellet machine

We have a small pellet mill making wood pellets but it is not as easy as they advertise. Its a bit like biscuit making you start with the same ingredients but not always end up with the same result.
