A quick demo of my concrete mixer adapted for sieving gravel and soil

A quick tutorial of how you made this would be awesome.

Please do!

[@WarPoet-In-Training]

This would work really well for compost too

You, sir, are a gentleman.

[@user-ww2lc1yo9c]

where are the complete instructions on how to make one of these things?

Hello from Australia How did you attach it, I really like you method a lot. 🇦🇺👍🏻😀

[@andyv111]

Thanks, I've placed a piece of board inside the metal drum. The board is slightly larger than the drum''s opening. And then used a couple of long screws to attach the base of the outside mesh drum to the board. That's about it.

​@andyv111 I'm not understanding how it becomes fixed to the drum

[@andrear5730]

Hi Andy great desing, just wondering what sort of mesh did you use for the exterior structure? many thanks

[@andyv111]

Thanks. For the exterior drum I've used mesh from some old grid mesh shelving system.

[@sparksmcgee6641]

Livestock supply will have kinds of screen. I'd recommend 12 guage bull panels for the larger outside frame then whatever siE screen inside.

If it had a mesh or even a plastic lid it could be tilted forward to allow more product release

[@sparksmcgee6641]

That's in the way of loading it. This thing will go through it as fast as you could shovel.

Hey man where did you get that steel mesh bin from please?

[@paulsturman-rn8pw]

Is there a plan available to do this please Andy

[@mtbhillbilly]

I done this by hand scooping rocks in a bucket with chicken wire
