Congrats man! I have dreamed and sketched such toys but nowhere to use them around here. Enjoy and lets see it when you get it together, up and running. Excellent.

your suction nozzle would get better results if the highpressure water inlet was aiming straight down the center of the outlet!

The Honda WX15 is a great little pump, we use them all the time. They are small enough to be able to run a gold cube at just above an idle for hours and a lot lighter than a battery. I recommend that everyone should have at least one We have 3 in our group.

+1 on what Reed said! One tip for that motor though, try turning the discharge outlet 180'. This will have the water flowing one way and the engine exhaust pointed the other. It is easy once you look at it for a second.

I did this with similar gear years ago, hopefully you can get a little motivation from it

Nice setup mcordell. Good Luck with it. Post some pics of the take and celebrate with a cold Anchor Steam.

Agreed on the that pump...........
It's the ONE pump that we like to use and recommend with our Raptor.
Go to 8:23 in this video and see the stand we made for ours.
Lets you set the pump in the water with no worries.
I LOVE that little stand.

great trash pump, for small HB, or as reed suggested, but for a dredge good luck
Ralted, nice i use 6" PVC sch 40 w/glue on end caps for the older keene 2 1/2" back pack dredge w 3.5hp briggs

I've used that pump to dredge with my 2.5" dredge/highbanker. I was using it with no real lift but it worked pretty well. Full throttle of course! Works great for the highbanker.
