    Do you mean another company made an outboard attachment or are you referring to the Aquabug that R. Perry sold over here in the UK?

     

    @CNew you do have the Polaris power head & attachments over in the US, probably just as hard to find as the Tarpen Mini engine power head is over here.

    Yes sorry David I meant the Aquabug !

    I like those Tarpen tools, never seen one in this side of the pond. The chainsaw attachment is pretty neat!  Is there also an outboard attachment?

     

    Not as a Tarpen tool, other makes available !

    Those Tarpen tools are definitely cool and they look very well built.  I'd like to find some for my collection but doubt there are very many out there.

     

    I was looking for one for ages and now have three with different tools, there was also a rotary pruning saw and a rotary grass cutter (both of which I have)

     

    Heres a period Tarpen advert for them...

    Can you remember where you got that brilliant stamped O & R sign - I don't suppose you've got any contact details. .... ?

    Going by the weights given in the manual, the engine (3¾lb) & two alternators (6½lb each) would cost somewhere around $120 to ship over, how close am I? It's difficult to estimate the packaging weight.

     

    What is the little propeller from, in the fourth picture from the first post?

     

    David

     

    Not far off, $131

     

    Little prop came with the goodies from Wallfish, need to have a good look to see if it fits an engine

     

     


  6. A large box of goodies arrived today from Wallfish in the USA, one and a half Tiny Tiger generators.

     

    With the "spare" engine I had with the correct fittings and having a look in the O&R spares stock, I managed to attach generator to engine.

     

    I was going to make up a base but as I don't have the correct tank I might leave it on the base its on for now...

     

    The second unit needs an exhaust, anyone got a spare one please ?

     

    Both units now on display with their buddies, lol
