outdoor corn boiler

QUESTION:

I am building an outdoor corn boiler to replace a wood boiler. Does anyone know a source of screw conveyors in the 2" dia range? This is the only component I can not find. i have built one with fenderwashers and a 3/8 shaft, but it is not a permanent solution.

ANSWER:

I would suggest searching for a dealer of corn/wood pellet stoves and see if they sell spare parts. Most of the comercially available stoves have augers that are probably in the size range you're looking for. If you're able to make one out of rod and washers, you shouldn't have much trouble adapting one to your application. A Google search for "corn stove" and parts gives mixed results with some possible hits too, but it's a lot of junk to weed through.
