PRICE INCREASE -- OLD TREE OZONE GENERATORS

PRICE HIKE — OLD TREE OZONE


DAMN THE WEAK-ASS DOLLAR!!!

Escalating costs of components and shipping have forced me to increase my prices for all of my products. These new prices will commence September 15, 2014. Any orders places prior to that date will be honored at the old price predicated on a deposit equal to 1/3 of the purchase price has been received prior to 9/15/14. Delivery of most models will be within 30 days. All previous price quotes and proposals are void as of 9/1/14. Also, leases and rentals are no longer available.



OLD TREE model 06 (Medical grade) $3990.00 (shown above)

OLD TREE model 03 (HH03) (horse trough) $1750.00

 

OLD TREE Model 3E, Commercial water supply and Swimming pool purification system prices will be quoted only in bid form -- after inspection and a thorough evaluation. The same policy applies to the 12V & 24V systems for remote — off grid and marine applications.


As an aside: An OLD TREE commercial grade unit was installed in a 36000 gallon swimming pool here in Chiriquí. The pool has operated daily with hotel guests and staff using in in the normal manner. THERE IS NO CHLORINE IN THE POOL! There hasn’t been for 3 weeks. The water is purified by the use of the ozone generator. (it runs on average 5 hours each night) The water is clear — it has no eye-burning chemicals, and I personally drank the water. When you leave the pool, you don’t feel sticky like one does with chlorine treated water. When one looks at the deep end — 9 foot depth, it is clear enough to count the ribs of the drain grate.

FIRE IN THE HOLE!!



Years ago, my grandfather, handed me a small spade and told me he was going to teach me how to dig a hole. At age 6, I was elated. We were standing near the corrals of his ranch. He took a twig and drew two circles; one larger one, about two feet in diameter and then a smaller one about 2/3 the size of the larger hole. He then made a mark (about 18 inches)on the handle of the small spade to indicate the depth of the holes I was to dig. It took me the better part of the morning to get it to my grandfather’s liking. He finally brought me a cold soda and proclaimed that half my job was done. While I sucked down the cola, he leaned down and pulled out a handful of dirt — making a lateral hole at the bottom to connect the two holes I had dug. Later I learned the second half of the job was to keep the fire going so the ranch hands could use the fire for the branding irons. Again, I was thrilled. I was a COWBOY.
This is an adaptation of the Rustlers Hole that the old time cowboys used when building a wood fire in the field to heat their branding irons. A Rustler hole is simply 2 holes dug side by side. One is used for the fire and the other is connected at the bottom with a small tunnel for the draft. Once a fire is started, the fire hole pulls air from below from the draft hole and creates a “forge like condition”. It is a very efficient method for heating branding irons, as it used very little fuel and has close to complete combustion; reduced smoke and no visible flame. Very stealthy -- hence the name, Rustlers Hole. I dug these holes to burn refuse without creating a lot of smoke. 


The Rustler stove was created and the same theory was adapted in the southwest because the ground was so difficult to dig. It was made from adobe blocks, just clay or mud piled into the correct configuration, or sometimes made from stone. The result was the same; high combustion with minimal fuel and little or no smoke.

The unit I built is made from sand and cement; a little water and formed in a five gallon bucket. The chimney (fire pit)and feed holes were formed by 4 inch PVC pipe cut at a 45 degree angle. I cut the hole in the bucket for the feed hole. Then, because I knew someone else would like a unit, I cut the bucket almost in half — vertically and wired it together before the pours. After an hour from the cement/sand concoction pour, I removed the PVC and allowed the unit to cure for a couple of days.
 

Once out of the plastic bucket (even though the bucket was pre-cut — not an easy chore), I scraped off any concrete residue and took the unit outside to begin the seasoning process. The lower, horizontal hole is not correct. I must have tipped the PVC when adding the concrete. Therefore, any fuel placed in the lower cavity tends to fall out. I can remedy this with a fuel tray… It will hold the fuel and the air will rush through the bottom of the impediment. If one was to be cooking on this unit I would modify it in some way to accommodate a larger fuel reserve.

The physics of the unit are just right. Combustion, once it is fired off and drawing sufficient air, is almost 100 percent. This means a lot of BTU’s are created with very little fuel. Also, the fuel burns thoroughly and emits very little smoke. It will be a great addition to my landscaping efforts. All organic refuse will be burned without emitting the billowing smoke of most leaf fires.

This unit is handy. I have an acre of ground that supports a host of mature tropical fruit trees and some Royal and coconut palms. The palms are messy and the old fruit trees are constantly dropping dead branches. I usually make a lap around the yard with my wheelbarrow each morning and dispose of the fallen organics using the Rustler stove.

I paid a couple of workers to clean the yard originally. (it was vacant for several months before I acquired it.) As a result, I have a huge pile of leaves, branches, and palm fronds. Burning them in my Rustler stove is not practical so I use my Rustler hole for the larger items. I can keep up on a daily basis with the smaller concrete stove. However we had a storm recently and large sections of the fruit trees blew down. I used the Rustler fire hole to dispose of most of the larger fallen branches. Once the fire was burning efficiently, it burned the green branches and leaves without creating a lot of smoke.

The holes need maintenance after the rains… the stove — not.

CHANGE OF DIRECTION

OZONE GENERATOR UPDATE


As I delve further and further into the technology of Ozone generators, I have begun to understand why the medical community is slow to embrace the Ozone therapy protocols.
Besides the fact that with the proper equipment most of the revenue from medical treatments would disappear, it is the inconsistent performance of the Ozone Therapy practitioners. The therapist is only as good as his/her equipment and training.

As my technical knowledge improves — (building my OLD TREE generators forces me to dig deeper) I have discovered more and more flaws in the components of the ordinary ozone generator. Even the Brockman, which I used for years, has some assembly shortcuts I find disturbing.
Many other units on the market have a lot of gadgets that are just that -- gadgets.  The flow meter for oxygen belongs on the regulator. I true reading is required, not a second hand calibration.  Why do these people insist on rheostats on their generators. All this does is turn down the voltage on the transformer. Lower voltage creates poor molecule arrangement and consequently less ozone. I’ve owned machines with all these dials and lights. They are truly a joke. WHY would anyone desire less ozone from an Ozone generator? All of these fancy and unnecessary dials, gauges, lights and buttons are to impress the practitioner and patient.  Just relate it to a vehicle; cup holders will not make your car run better -- gadgets won't heal you!

The process for making Ozone is very simple. Nature does it with lightening. Zap oxygen with enough electrical voltage and the 02 molecules will split into two 01 molecules. Scramble these O1’s in a contained tube of some kind by continuing to zap them with high voltage, and they begin to bind together as O3 — ozone.

Okay, we just created ozone. The gas is contained in a tube and will run into a hose to be used in a variety of forms; purifying water, removing mold and mildew, making medical ointments and even used by scientist to purify a ‘clean room’.

Ozone gas is very unstable. All these O1’s want to return to become O2 again. Within a very short time, this gas deteriorates and become straight oxygen again. When ozone gas hits the ambient air, it become nitrous oxide — that’s what you smell. Pure ozone, reportedly, has no color or odor.

25 years ago, Peter Brockman invented a 2 stage ozone generator that enhanced the O3 and made it clump together using ultra sound. The 06 &09 clumps allowed for rapid absorption into the bloodstream when injected. I have used his company’s generators for years. They were in a class all by themselves because of the tremendous healing powers of O6, O9, and sometimes O12. My contemporaries and I injected the gas directly into our vein. It has cured many major malady health problems. (see photo at end of post)

Recently, I invented a 2 stage machine that uses simple yet leading edge technology. Users receive the same if not better results with my quartz modulator. So far, the practitioners who use the OLD TREE, sing high praises. For that I am thankful. The only negative side to my invention is its size and weight. The Brockman people spent hours designing and assembling the components into a small plastic container. Their second stage is contained in the last one-third of the corona discharge tube. The oversize single transformer is also split into 2 stages. So, their unit is lighter in weight and has a smaller footprint.

I took a different approach. Perhaps it is part of my personality regarding form vs function. Function always wins in my world. My OLD TREE unit is housed in a welded aluminum case, 9” by 9” by 15”. It’s extremely durable. The marine aluminum is well ventilated and it houses a very powerful fan to cool the components. The rectangular shaped case has a folding handle on the top and all the fasteners are stainless steel. The fittings are brass and the wiring harness is marine grade. It weighs 16 pounds. It is perhaps the simplest unit on the market to use. There are only 2 moving parts; the switch and the fan. There is no need for any other gadgets; no lights, dials, gauges or other superfluous accouterments. The unit produces very strong ozone and the quartz modulator clusters the 03 particles into 06, 09, 012 and perhaps higher. Thus far the healing capabilities have been impressive.
 

Components:

Major components of the OLD TREE are manufactured specifically for me; the inventor/designer. The Corona discharge tube is made from an off the shelf unit and then modified to my specifications. Once modified and tested is is shipped to another locale in North America where it is tweaked and tested and finally finds its way to Panama. The quartz modulator is made specifically to my specifications and is not available to any other purchaser. (I have 2 different factories in 2 different countries manufacturing this proprietary component.) This Modulator is modified in a factory in Canada and modified again by me here in my Puerto Armuelles shop. The transformers come from 2 different countries as do the fittings, hoses, and electronic assemblies. The aluminum case is hand crafted in a metal/fiberglass shop here in Panama — it’s the only local part of the OLD TREE system. All components and parts eventually merge to my shop where they are assembled by me or someone supervised by me.


Assembly:

OLD TREE ozone generators are built for lifetime use. Therefore the assembly process is painstaking lengthy; attention to detail and procedures trump everything else. The ancillary parts to the machines are high quality. The fasteners are all stainless steel, the aluminum case is rugged yet compact, and the interior wiring is double soldered and grounded in more than one area.


Testing & warranty:

Each component is tested multiple times during the assembly process. Once the final stage is reached, the entire unit is subjected to a stress test; dropped from 2 ft, turned in every direction, swung to simulate the g-force created by baggage handlers, and the final test is an injection of 50cc’s into my veins.


Price and terms:

The M06 model is $3300.00 USD. $1000.00 deposit -- delivery within 30days.



Additional models and applications:

Household water purification system (ambient air)

Swimming pool system (ambient air)

Bilge water system (12 volt or 110 volt)

Livestock system (12 volt or 110volt)

Commercial water supply (oxygen tanks or oxygen maker)

BLOGS REACTIVATED

Several months have passed since I posted to either of my blogs; BLAIR-PACIFIC PUBLISHING or ISTHMUS TRADER. It’s not that I didn’t have anything to say — I was really busy. I’m still busy but I need to activate both of the platforms for a variety of reasons.
BLAIR-PACIFIC PUBLISHING was initially created to be the platform from which I promoted my writing; specifically my 13 novels and 6 screenplays. My intentions are to continue to use it for those purposes from time to time but my career as an author has waned. A decade was dedicated to this endeavor with disappointing results. I still write but it is no longer my primary focus. As a matter of fact, it has slipped to 4th place since I moved from David to Puerto Armuelles.

ISTHMUS TRADER was created to broker boats. It morphed into a classified paper and eventually went back to offering large vessels for sale in association with another marine broker. It lies dormant because the author (me) was distracted these past six months.

Both blogs will be revived but with a much different bent. BP will be a catch-all. Opinions in general, articles about my Ozone Generator business, promotions of my novels from time to time — back stories on current happenings, and a platform for whatever I choose.

IT is going to be the sales blog for whatever product or service I choose to sell or trade. Although focusing on Panama, some of the items like my Ozone Generators will be exposed to other parts of the world. On occasion I may include a friend or associates goods or services but in reality, most of what will be exposed for sale will be from yours truly.

Goals vs Resolutions

Or -- How to eat an elephant.

 
THANK GOD! The holidays are over. We’re all as fat as a tick, the bowl games are over, the hangovers have abated, and we’re ready for some normalcy.

 
This is the time of year most folks make New year resolutions. It’s a time honored tradition designed to shatter self esteem. Pure unadulterated self-promises to do or not to do certain things. A month later, the habit they chose to kick, the gym they promised to join, the secret resolve that sneaked back to the forefront and they still have the same problem(s) with an added burden of guilt and shame.

Sound familiar? Your steely resolve for the following years is: NOT TO MAKE ANY RESOLUTIONS!!! But somehow as the holiday’s approach and thoughts turn to the new year, your subconscious begins tallying items to place on your resolution list.

This is the time to submit. Don’t fight this start of the year assessment. Consider the phrase; resolution list! RESOLUTION LIST. Now write it this way; RESOLUTION

Just write a list. Write it in ambiguous terms. Here’s an example; my own general list for 2014. There are no resolves. No set-up for failures. Just a list. Don’t number them… place in random order.

  • Continue healthy living — diet and exercise.
  • Complete and publish a couple more novels.
  • Introduce folks as to ‘My style of OZONE THERAPY’. Anti-Aging therapy.
  • Phase out my blog. Spend the time on novels and promotion.
  • Diversify my OLD TREE manufacturing facilities and assembly points.
  • Embrace, configure, and promote the ‘International Wellness’ concept.
  • Continue franchising the ENFORCED MEMORIZATION TECHNIQUE in Asia and other parts of the world.
  • Package my novel/screenplays into salable units on Amazon.

Somewhere on the list will be an asterisk on a task. A MUST DO!

* File my address with the clowns at the embassy concerning “PROOF OF LIFE”!!

** Hire a new accountant in the USA — fire the old one!

*** open a new bank account in _____???

These are important tasks that need to be on a list. Why this list? Simple… If every task is on the same list, you will notice some of the other general statement tasks (subliminal reminders)as you plow through the ‘must do tasks’.

I’m not suggesting the daily household list; buy oranges, finish Charles Krauthammer’s book, wash the car, take out garbage, etc.

However, there is one of the general goals on your overall list that needs to be placed on the daily chores list — your health!

Focus on your health. Do what’s necessary to delay or reverse the aging process.

People have a tendency to make wishes rather than goals when it comes to money or accomplishments. “I wish I had a better job. I wish I could save more. I wish I could sell more widgets. Or my favorite; I WISH I COULD WRITE A BOOK!”

Anything that can be quantified should be broken down to the lowest common denominator. Saving — how much? Over how much time?

For example: to save $2000.00 in a year (a small elephant), one should break it down. $166.61 per month. Okay, that’s $38.16 per week or $5.54 a day. So, that’s not so hard. Skip the Starbuck’s, pack your own lunch, stop smoking, skip the beer after work. You name it…$5.54 per day stuffed into a jar will deliver you $2000.00 in a year. Deposit the monthly amount in an interest bearing account and it will grow even faster.

Okay, let’s write a novel in a year. Most of my novels are around 70,000 words. (that is 280 -300 pages — a larger elephant)Again, we break it down. Use 11 months. 6363 words a month. 1480 words a week. 211 words a day. Less than a page a day will create a 70,000 word novel in eleven months. The editor has it for a month and BINGO! You have your best seller.

Lose weight — same program. Make a reasonable goal over a long period of time. Then subdivide down to so much loss per week.

Drinking, smoking, biting your nails, drug addiction and other personal habits need to be addressed differently. Seek help!

Manifesting good or bad into your life is always self thoughts and self talk. Make you list and then remember to review it once in a while (LIKE EVERY DAY!)

Understand the rules? Be general and reasonable with your desired achievements. Anything that can be quantified can be broken down to the lowest common denominator. Thus you have turned a WISH into a doable GOAL.

Achievement is always based on discipline. Even the simplest task can be considered an achievement. Not doing some “jive dance in the end zone” achievement, but an achievement none-the-less. Saving five bucks a day and stuffing it into a jar… that’s an achievement. A simple discipline. Writing a page a day for your novel. That’s an achievement. Take small bites over a long time span and soon you will have devoured the entire elephant.

**** this is my last post for some time.  I'll be concentrating on the two novels I am currently writing. Have a swell 2014!

WESTERN WRITER?


Yesterday (New Year day)I spent the day with a close friend. He and his wife are partners in a fishing resort near Limones… (a long way from David). Rex introduced me to some of his lodge guests as Bob Hatting, the western writer. I was about to offer a retort and explain that I write in different genre’s and then opted to remain quiet. The folks left us to our project. But while measuring and cutting of sheet aluminum for my new Ozone Generator case, I began to take inventory in my mind.
Maybe I am a western writer. Although only two of my novels are true period westerns; BOOMER & HALF-BREED, after some reflection, I tend to lean in that direction. Several of my screenplays are definitely western in nature; albeit contemporary. Same with PARTNERS, UNTAMED, CRYSTAL COWBOY and TRUST ME, the novel I’m currently writing. All are contemporary westerns; modern day ride, rope, and shoot stories. MURDER IN PANAMA and the two sequels, REVOLUTION OF FOOLS and HART RULES are in no way western or even western in nature. Same with my novels, EXPAT, ALASKA BE DAMNED and the LAST FRUIT STAND ON GUAM. There are characters that have a western upbringing but the stories and settings are contemporary and have an exotic bent. Same with My two latest novels, TRES PIEDRAS and SHOOTER -- Characters with western backgrounds but set in contemporary times and foreign countries.

Thirteen novels and six screenplays. Soon a fourteenth novel. Twenty stories in total. Ten are western. I guess novel number fifteen will determine my label.
