Buddy-ro's Bean Sheller - Initial Run

My homemade bean sheller. Note that I made a mistake in the video - the motor turns at 1725 RPM, but the shaft/ paddles are turning at 575 RPM and the drum at 80 RPM.

That is so freakin cool. I used to do that with my grandfather watching tv. He would have loved that thing.

[@JohnDavidDunlap]

You have just made my wife's love of beans tolerable. Thank you, sir!

[@ozbonfim4525]

Excellent design!

[@johnberry1107]

Yes, I would also call that a success. Thank you.

[@aegeanorganicslemnos8311]

Well done. that is very nice and efficient.

[@GrowingWardFamily]

Steam punk without the steam or the punk. Cool machine.

[@campbellmarty36]

Prolly could build this thing now in 2022 for about $1500!!! #FJB

[@MexicanMovie]

Wow this is totally awesome !!!!!

[@drumminsonlive9199]

Would like to see it shell some beans that are green and not dry because green ones are much harder to shell as I’m sure you know…

[@katkerykatkery5645]

Super thank you

[@iinventedair]

Do you have plans so I can figure out how to make this?

[@andrewspivey]

Sorry, didn't go by any plans specifically, nor did I write any down. I drew most of my inspiration from some videos posted here by Cecil Ray. Look for his bean sheller videos - he goes into more detail.

[@ЮэнДжонс]

Sweet! What width are the belts on this machine?

[@ЮэнДжонс]

Nice machine! Could you give any info on the big pulley bolted to the drum? Where did you buy it? Would it have a specific name?

[@ellismidkiff6117]

V belt pulley. I don’t know what size but there are ways to calculate the size you need based on the motor you want to use.

[@YogeshKalyanpad]

Congrats. This is the easiest design I have seen for a thresher.

[@andrewspivey]

Yogesh Kayanpad thanks !!!!

[@thshm2938]

Please please please make the main shaft a little bigger....

[@andrewspivey]

It's 5/8. Plenty strong for this application.

[@rlmccullough]

Is a blueprint and info this, I can make extra money shelling peas and butterbeans.

[@jeffcox3109]

How does it work on fresh beans the demo was dried beans just wondering thanks

[@andrewspivey]

Works just fine. I had to run it a little longer, but the results were just as good.

[@willhoyle752]

I want plans

[@Epong086]

Good day, can I contact you privately for more information about the machine and its design? We are highly interested in this project. Thank you

Buen dia amigo; versu tutoria meha servido mucho. debo consfruir maquinas desgranadoras y trilladoras de maiz para mi uso...pero me fataba planos dibujos para una desgranadora de CFrijoles...ya tengo claro como hacerlo---Que bueno que Usted haya presentado la idea....se lo agradezco..

[@andrewspivey]

Mis habilidades en español son muy malas - no recuerdo mucho de mis clases de español. Si hago otra máquina, será mejorada. Aprendí mucho cuando construí esta máquina. El consejo más importante que puedo darle es divertirse! Buena sheets, amigo !

[@jameslundy547]

Do you have any plans available to build this machine?

[@andrewspivey]

james Lundy Sorry, but no. Look on KZbin for bean sheller videos from Cecil Ray. I didn't follow his instructions exactly, but took most of my inspiration from him.

[@neno56527]

there is a person from serbia that died from this , you should put some cover on the top and dont get close to it while is working
