    Default Off topic request, Looking for a small rock crusher

    I am looking for a small rock crusher, prefer something in Ca, Or, or western Nevada, but will consider other. I figure with all the iron collectors here someone might know of one, would only be using it to make a couple hundred pounds of rock flour a year, advice also welcome.

    Thanks
    Josh

    I finally found and bought a rock crusher that will work for what I want, it is a Braun Simplex Ore Crusher, an old design and Braun still makes a similar model. this one has a 3" by 6.5" jaw and will crush rocks up to about 2" dia. It works great, and seems to take little power to do its job. Attached are a couple pictures, and a link to a current model for sale and another potentially interesting crusher.

    Thats a cute little crusher!! I didnt know they made jaw crushers that small. Im around a 3ft primary crusher most of the year, Crushing diffrent grades of gravel/stone. Off topic but I know of a nice little Cedar Rapids jaw/roll crusher in Big Rapids Michigan That only has 10 inch rolls but, One roll is cracked (from not knowing how to weld them up). Would make a great fixer up-er For a small dirt working company.
