Having conceded defeat in my Babington burner build, I made the decision to go a different route and use a commercial oil burning tip. The main reason I favoured the Babington design was that the oil never passed through a jet, so there was no nozzle to block.
Waste oil is free but not clean, so I decided to cannibalise the oil pump assembly I had and set it up so it will pump oil from the 200L drum that I will use as a main repository, through an engine oil filter and into a 20L drum that I will use to fuel the burner. I got the frame welded up as well as the pump and the motor fitted. Ignore the wiring, as this was just to test. I need a shorter belt too.
Once finished, it will reside in the corner of the shop out of the way.
