Trommel John`s Amazing Trommel

[@dreamcatcherdb]

Great trommel! Like others, I have looked at dozens of DIY trommel designs and agree that yours is the best.

[@trommeljohn3215]

Thankyou Gaberiel for that comment. A lot of thought went into its design. Like you I also looked at all the youtube builds, thought about what they had done wrong, and then how i could make a better one. Turned out it worked well first time we tried it.

[@zanestedman1365]

One of the best designs I've seen, well done.

[@racebiketuner]

Excellent design! Thanks for sharing.

[@garrettmckellar269]

Great vid. I also thought about using a gas motor when I was getting trouble finding a electric motor that I could adjust the speed. But I got lucky and got a treadmill from someone with everything working. Doing my final touches now. Really excited for the final results.

To collect the rocks, maybe cap off the far end, and add a second position to increase the slope, open the capped end and collect rocks in a wheelbarrow. Nice design!

[@andyjones6361]

I do like the construction of this trommel

[@js9705]

Un excelente trabajo..

[@timmcneil1536]

brilliant design easily disassembled and transported. one could probably even backpack that thing.

[@ozturner]

It looks good and well made. How about slowing that drum down to 30 rpm and teach your lady to tie back her hair around rotating machinery. Basic safety.

[@curiouscat3384]

She's dressed up for the video and nowhere near the belt so probably okay. Good general advice though - I've known several women who got a chunk of hair pulled out by machines.

[@mathewcurtis2070]

Please don't move the trommel whilst it is rotating. I thought Nicky's hair was going to get caught and ripped out of her head when I saw this.

[@mehmetsavas9705]

Bravo...

[@Halupka5]

Is that engine at idle already or throttled up?

[@lacarambacaramba]

I can use a lawnmower motor to make that or any other small engine for that matter, but I prefer an electric motor, because of the noise, I think the design is great, even if it is expensive, is worth the money, I love it, regards from a fan, you've got my support.

[@wandagoodman3763]

I had a sifter built but it doesn't have the right motor so I was wondering what kind of motor you have.

[@trommeljohn3215]

Its a small Loncin motor bought off Ebay

[@wandagoodman3763]

@@trommeljohn3215 thank you so much for your response.

[@PashikTT]

what is this belt that rotates the drum itself? How is it vcalled? WHere can I buy it? Cannot find belt anywhere. What length it is

[@garrettmckellar269]

You may have to make a belt. I'm currently making one and in the final stages. Gna use an old treadmill belt. Cutting and joining it for my required length and coating it with a anti-skid spray paint. Hope this helps.

[@andyjones6361]

Just add a sheet metal extension tube so the unsifted materials can be collected.

[@denjhill]

Not sure I see the point. Looks like all it does is break up otherwise clean soil. Why not just use a rototiller?

[@johnndavis7647]

It sifts out the rocks and trash.

[@jmc0369]

And can be used to sift worm castings.

[@timmax4817]

Talk about OVERKILL!! Yea send me some of that HUNDREDS of dollars it cost you to make that!

[@urednik123]

This trommel have too much RPM, reduc ithem to 30 rpm ...

[@trommeljohn3215]

Hi Igor I hope you and your friends and family are keeping well in these trying (Covid 19) times. I thank you for your comment... the RPM is increased or decreased using the throttle on the engine wich is a 2 stroke engine..
