One of the better vids on building a trommel. Thank You!

One of the nicest watch builds I have seen in a while...

Great job! Loved watching you guys set up the shaft!

Clever to use the oil drums! I was thinking of using old bicycle rims as outer rings for my sieve but cutting up a barrel is much more versatile and easy to come by ! Thank you for sharing!

That's one of the better ones I have seen, thanks for sharing.

Вы очень талантливый и изобретательный человек. Постараюсь сделать что-то похожее на Вашу конструкцию, тоже на основе бочек, для просеивания песка под штукатурку. Спасибо вам за идею и показ поэтапного изготовления конструкции.

You guys are true hacks and I applaud that. Nice build and nice vid.

Excellent stuff! Great footage and editing and a pretty effective result with the trommel. Really inventive approach to the design and executed more than well enough as _"you're not building a watch!"_ ;) _(I'll be nicking that phrase, thank you!)_

getting pretty snazzy with that camera work and editing, you're on your way to mastering the hill and media.

This is the perfect soil seive that i will be making ,although it will be powered by my lister d, thank you so much for the guidance on how to make it cheers Bobby.

superbly made.

Fantastic video. Thank you so very much. Greetings from Portugal.

That is well done!!! Good job brother!!!!

Very nicely done looks like it works great

Hi there Good job have good day and happy day be safe god bless.

Nice invention. I thought about making such roller screener but I decided to make a sloped vibration screen. On this roller I would make frame above and mount the motor above.

You need plates on the sides to send material back where you want it instead of coming out of the sides. You need your motor above your trommel to keep dust and debris from messing up your motor

You're not wrong but, it doesn't matter. That drum on the trommel would have been in the scrap bin 6 months after it was built. I tried it with drums. They are never truly round. As they flex when they are revolving they are stress fracturing. I solved the problem by rebuilding mine with 30" outer rims from a scrapped tractor.

Should have mounted the motor above the spoils.

Thank you so much for giving me a great idea 😊👍

Nice design.

nicely done

Groovey man ..😁

Cool. Cheap options are great indeed! Now you just need to make a diy conveyor to save that poor bastard doin all the shovel work :P

The poor bastard doing all the shovel work was the same guy who built the dog gone thing! Beautiful piece of machinery on the cheap, I do say!!!! I could sure use something like that and someone else to shovel my gravel for me, too. Most of the dirt I'm sifting, thankfully, isn't as coarse as that gravel he's pulling, mostly 3/8" to 1/2" crushed granite and any underlying rocks deeper in the soil bed left behind by the developers. Got a short run of 3-8" river rock I'm clearing from the back yard and re-purposing into some gabion walls & planters, as well as vehicle barriers for the yard out front. Just don't know where I'd store such a behemoth like that sieve! Even as badly as I want one for efficiency of work effort, I'd have to rent some remote city yard space just to store it off the home site. I live in an HOA community OVERLORDED by the "friendly" neighborhood Gestapo and I have a wife who likes everything frilly foo-foo all around her-- she can't bear to see anything looking even slightly industrial roundabout her-- not even a little partitioned storage area behind a blind. "Something's gotta give," I always tell her-- nothing ever does from her. 😆

I'm so blessed my Mrs grew up mining... Anything like this that means not doing it by hand is OK with her.

You guys should install some short guide rails (maybe 1/4 inch) periodically to guide the larger rocks out quickly (like rifling). If you suspend them 2 inches above the screen, they won't interact much with the gravel as it's spinning but will still deflect the bigger rocks.

Excellente vidéo

Well-thought-out and constructed trommel. There is only one major thing that I would have done differently, that being, I would have mounted the motor and pillow block assembly either directly above or behind the trommel unit to keep all the trash away from those necessary parts.

Excellent idea to use oil drums, nice build Sir.

Good work I appreciate the ideas...I'm gonna make of those too! What size motor did you use and did you like the horsepower of the motor that you did use or would you upgrade it???

Well done! Very impressive guys :)

Super cool, great simple design, and cheap. Going to start a gold trommel build, might steal (er, borrow) some of your ideas. Aussies do stuff right. Subbed. Cheers! Chris.

Nice!

very good

Браво ! Мастер !

would have liked to see close up of belt around the drum. Otherwise this is a great video very clear easy to follow. Many thanks 🍀

Fantastic build. Is this thing still operating? Or did the soil muck up the system? Any lessons learned or improvements you’d of made?

Hi

Can someone tell me what the best elevation in degrees mount the cylinder trommel??? I’m mainly will be using to separate sands, dirt , small pebbles and rock ( fist size)

Look cool, how has it held up? Imma thinking if the bolt heads were inside, an threads outside it might make screen repairs better. Maybe?

How did you join the 2 barrels? Weld or that angle iron inside?

Great!

Berispirasih jos ❤️👍

not building a watch , I will have to remember that one !!!!!

Nice, one thought: why didn’t you put the motor on top instead of underneath? That would keep dirt out of the running mechanism.

@jasperschaible8999

5 жыл бұрын

Motors are often under slung as weight of the motor on a pivot beam tensions the belts without need for tension devices. And obviously, this application calls for sealed motor and bearings. Still, an alternative configuration would be an improvement not just for motor health, but better positioning could allow placement of a wheelbarrow (ect) underneath to catch fines which are otherwise pouring on this motor....

@bendova3667

Cannot, because the belt will pull the trommel/drum up and off the spinning wheels, which will run out of place. If you hold the drum down, it won’t spin.

I had someone build a sifter for me but I need to have more information about the motor that you used thank you

U r the best

I was wondering if it would make sense, to leave one third,of the one Barrel, with the Steel, if that's where you are going to put the Motor!

I would at least cover the motor all the way with metal so no dirt gets in it. GREAT SCREENER!

2 problems, you cant fully cover due to heat generation from the motor, other it looks as though the weight of the motor assembly is what is being used as a tensioner for the belt. The hole motor assembly needs to be move out to the side and chain driven, with 2-4 rollers on top pressing down to act as the drum stabilizers so there is no misalignment issues.

If you make concrete with it you should wash it first I think. So .... build a washer and make sure you put a sluice in it to catch any gold or other precious things in the dirt/ sand in the process!

Why do people use angle grinders without the guard fitted? Other than that a great project.

Nice vidio👍 New Friends from Indonesian 🔔🙏

Very good build, and will easily pay for its self

Add a screw drive which feeds the mechanism, so you don't have to shovel everything in :)

Ha! You started with a small cutting wheel ..ha!

when you weld go nice and slow pretend you are a machine this way you will get great beads.

I did the same in 2007 ))

David Emery - It seems to me, the used 2 Standard Fuel Drums! In Canada we called them 45 Gallon Drums! There are smaller Drums, of Similar Ribbed Style, that I have seen, sometimes, that are 20 or 30 Gallon Drums, too! For a tinier one, 5 Gallon Buckets, could be The Base, but would need some Strength added, likely!

Wtf. There is not a set speed

Leave the guard on the angle grinder so you don't melt your shirt. Wear goggles or a face shield so the blade doesn't impale your face. Signed...guy who cut his thumb off once and takes power tools much more gracefully. =)

Put the motor on the top

should re-mount the motor on top

The motor breaks. The sand entrance is bad.

You're not going to live long welding galvanized without some kind of respirator or at least a fan to blow those fumes away

@JonDingle

4 жыл бұрын

He is outside so he isn't exactly going to die from welding galvanized steel when the chance of inhaling fumes is at best zero. I have been welding galvanized steel inside high roof buildings with a breeze blowing through for years and I don't cough or splutter and I am not dead. So, in essence you are wrong because if the situation is right (not enclosed and you grind off the galvanized finish) you don't need respirators.

At least gringo is aware there is a danger when welding galvanized steel . You would be surprised how many folks running around with welding/cutting tools do not know that simple fact . I had been welding almost ten years before I found out it was toxic , fortunately I never worked galvanized prior to that . Better too safe than not safe enough .

I would love you to build me one lol

Put the electric motor over the trommel , not under....

I see you dont like washers...

Dirt is falling on the motor...

I was inspired by your design and used it for my own version of it. kzread.info8ZyR0zYPQj4?feature=share I used a treadmill motor for mine. It’s not designed for commercial application so I’m ok with the motor being a little lighter duty. Thanks for the video!
