Thank you for posting this video. Nice job. I've been building mine, in my head, for several years. It has many elements similar to yours. A cheap drill is absolutely the way to go. For that matter, I plan to keep a new spare(or two) on hand at all times.

I first had a jig saw moving the table. If I could've found a way to tame it, I think I would have stuck with it. It was just too inconsistent. Thank you for your input, and good luck on yours!

Very interesting design!

This is great! I was thinking of building a similar design but using vibration… an easy hack you can test for noise reduction, try some thin weather strips on the underside of the bracket so it’s not metal on metal.. Might also try the same to dampen the wood on wood noise. Again, great work! I appreciate the video!

@that1guydoesthings

Thank you, I appreciate the feedback. The more noise reduction I've tested, the less effective the "thump" is to clear the screens and keep things moving. I suspect I could play with the angle more to compensate.

I wondered if your cam was just a circle with a hole offset from the center, or perhaps something more fancy... like an egg-shapes profile sorta like you see in automobile camshafts, or perhaps even a seashell shaped profile that would cause a more sudden jolting action. Looks to me like the simple approach gave you some great results 👍🏻

Great job.😎

Menards, but most local hardware stores carry 24"×24" pieces. Notice the seam, I had to use the off cut to get the length I needed. Turned out the off cut was almost exactly what I needed to make up the difference.

Mine is a Skil brand. If you are getting one dedicated for the job I would get a cheap corded drill. If you intend to use it for more than the sifter I would spend a little more and get battery powered. Maybe ask some friends, good chance someone has an old one laying around you could try out.

​@@that1guydoesthings Well I copied everything you did and made the hole thing including the sifting trays. However I have run into a problem. I have put 5 nuts and 5 washers on in total, but when the drill is turned on every things works perfectly for a minute and then I notice that the rod is moving down away from the drill and the nuts are undoing. I have never used nuts and washers before and looked on google and I think maybe I need a spring washer. But if so how many. Can you please give me some help . The rest is perfect and it works just like yours except for that one problem. Thanks, laurie

@that1guydoesthings

@laurie bareham the nuts holding the rod in place are Nylocks. It is a nut w a small nylon insert to keep them in place on the rod. The two clamping the cam are regular. It's a bit of a dance getting them on, goes quicker if you can use the drill to turn the rod while holding the nut with a wrench or other tool. It's obvious I need to do a better job in my videos on the details. If you need I could make a video later. Thank you.

The drill is much better than the Sawzall. Way less strain on the tool. I can't see a Sawzall lasting long at all.
