cleaning out a grain bin to turn it into a shed, and came across some old blowers that you might find in your central heating or central A/C. no motors but they have a shaft that a pulley or something could be attached to.
also found another blower that looks like it might have more suction power at moment has a 230volt motor on it.
i have some 30 gallon and 55 gallon drums.
some misc scrap plywood, silicon and spray foam and some screws. i think i have some 4" or 3" flex pipe you might use for end of gutters to get water away form the house some.
i really don't like idea of debris going through the fans, the 230volt blower might be able to handle debris without clogging but rather not do that.
so some sort of box would need to be placed around the blowers. and allow for a shaft to come out the side to connect PTO somehow.
errr perhaps getting a standard box cheap fan that you might have in your hose or prop up front of a window. and remove the motor, and hook it up to the pto shaft with some pulleys. to increase speed of the fan speed. and have it suck the air out of 55 gallon drum or some sort of plywood box. that had a 3" or 4" hose on it, to use as a vacuum.
something strong enough to allow small size crusher rock to be picked up. yet also able to say pick up grass 3 to 5 feet wide. no need for hydrualics or tilt bed dumper, or like a regular house carpet vacuum with the roller under neath it. just a straight shop vac like vacuum but ran off back of tractor PTO. with ability to make your own catcher, either garbage cans, 30 or 55 gallon drums. or building a plywood box on top of a small trailer or toe able lawn cart.
maybe a carry-all. to hold the vacuum fan that connects to PTO shaft and 3pt hitch on tractor. then a ball / hitch with a hose added to carry-all. to make your own size toe able catcher box.
