[QUOTE="Lannie, post: 1805987, member: 8202"] I have the narrow bore inflations and a Gast oil-less 3/4 hp pump with a balance tank, running at 12.5hg (I think that's the correct terminology). [URL]https://hambydairysupply.com/nupulse-3-4-hp-vacuum-pump-for-1-or-2-bucket-milkers/[/URL] I've been doing this for 12 years now. Molly is the [S]fourth[/S] FIFTH heifer I've trained to milk. There was Bandit, Cricket, Helen, Morgaine, and now Molly. Yikes. I actually bought a calf bander way back when, but the neighbor loves doing favors for us, and he always asks if we want him to castrate the bull calves when they're there, so I say yes, please. Although I have tried to pay him, he won't accept it. My little bag of green cheerios is long since expired, LOL!
