4th of July SALE: (through the weekend, normally 5)The
Vibra-Bucket
assists the otherwise tedious
dry
-screening by hand methods of fine mesh soils/sands; it shakes your sieves/screens so you don’t have to! It has a 30W industrial vibrator inside a 5 gal heavy duty 24 Gauge Heavy Duty steel pail with a further reinforcing bottom board. A special flat rimmed (short) 3.5 gal plastic bucket fits
above
the motor to hold the sieve/screen and catch the soil/sand. Sections of rubber tape inside the steel pail rim provide a snug fit with air gaps, to avoid a "stuck bucket."
Screens (4, 8, &12 mesh) may be purchased separately, please inquire. Screens must fit the 5 gal size.
When tested with 1/2 gal 3/1 mix of -12M/+12M
dry
river sand it delivers 97% and 99% in 1 and 2 minutes at full vibration. The speed controller allows turning down the force to
MEDIUM range where it will screen about twice as fast
as the test above. In this way, the sand stays closer to the screen which allows more particles to find the holes. Full force is needed when too much soil is placed in a screen, especially at first, to help stir the load. The sound is dampened when soil/sand/gravel is added.
The vibration motor needs 115V AC. Otherwise, a small inverter will provide power to work with a small 12V DC battery in the field.
Besides gold mining and prospecting, these can be used in cleaning rocks & gravel from lawns and used in meal worm farming.
