Hello, First of all I would like to thank the moderators and one of the members. I contacted to get my account activated. Something must have went crazy while registering. Ok. Here I go. My name is John and I have been collecting and restoring horns for quite a few years. I have pretty big collection consisting of Nathan/Airchime, Leslie, Prime, Wabco, Also I have a large collection of steam whistles too. I am A member on other Horn sites. I have noticed alot of members names from those sites and some of the diesel truck sites I belong to also. I’m presently working on installing a new set up on my new truck. partly my old set up and new on this truck. It will be using 2 viair 450C compressors, 2 slimline 5 gallon tanks. A port for my K5la and the main horn will be the black horns which you all know as the Shocker horns. My current project is making. A five chime horn set up using five of the horns, cut and tuned to a Airchime M-5 chord. I’m almost finished have to do a little tweaking and tuning. So sorry for being long winded. Looking foward to meeting some of you.
Thanks, As soon as I can. I will post up some pics etc… It’s my busy time of the season for my business. When things slow down. I will get some stuff up.
A big Rainy welcome to the forum from a wet & rainy UK…
I’m liking the whistles alot!!! I so want one badly!!! but have just upgraded from S4 Shockers to a set of K3’s… (soon to be dispatched from Hornblasters) So my money tree has been picked clean!!!
A few I have made myself. Some Lunkeheimers from 2 " to 6’ in width. A few crosbys, a few D&M whistles etc in various sizes. Big ones are single note hooters a 5 chime, Southern 3 chime.
Really !
I would like that.What do I have to do to get the plans?? I understand these whistles use A ton of air,I guess I’ll have to put A 60 gallon tank on mt truck. LOL
I believe the Oasis draws. Anywhere form 90 to 180 amps. Depending on what voltage compressor you choose to use. Dan should be able to clarify for you. When I say 6" mean a 6" circumference and about 18-20 inches tall and about 40lbs. Made form steel pipe. I have plans for a 6 chime pvc whistle, 4" Pvc whistle, And a 2" single hooter whistle all to be blown on 40 to 60 lbs of air pressure. One of the plans make a whistle like in this video.
