The skid is 3/8” thick, 18” wide C channel from the scrap yard. The ends are welded capped with 3” angle iron. All in all, the skid itself weighs 143lbs!
Cost me about $70 for steel and my buddy powder coated it for $40.

I have the same machine and it’s been great. I hate you had a bad experience. I always call Shaun at the Nashville store to place my orders. I had bad experiences with the people at the Wisconsin store

Unfortunately the stuff sold on their website goes through their Wisconsin store…

We have a lot of bbq around here but nothing like Tennessee. Best bbq in FL is in the side of the road trailers not restaurants.

What about using a 19817 - Briggs & Stratton 28 HP Vanguard EFI Engine to build a pw?
Some washers come equipped with the Vanguard engines though I couldn’t tell you which ones or which exact engines they are.
The Vanguard 37HP EFI costs about the same as the Kohler 37HP non EFI. I was thinking of building a machine using the Kohler EFI
