Thanks guys for the comments. Yes I believe it's possible to do something like this. Is it practical well that's another discussion. Just looking through YouTube and found this video of a shop with a Novo hit a miss running it. The idea is what I envisioned someone would be doing.
Been meaning to get out to Hanford Mill for some time now. Maybe this is the year. Fly creek cider mill in Fly creek NY runs their equipment with a Waterloo boy stationary engine. Looks like someone just put a Waterloo tractor in there without the frame on it. Cool to see run. New Hope mill in NY ran their mill for many years with a water wheel. It ran the grinding equipment and as well as the packing equipment. They have since move to a more modern facility to keep up with production. I remember as a kid being way down in the bottom of the mill there was a stationary engine they used when the mill pond was low. Can't tell you what it was but it was big. I wondered how they ever got it down there.
So it clearly is doable but practical it may not be. Thanks guys for the input.
