Hydraulic Hobbies Turbo Trommel Kit
 

The build is done and the paint is curing. A belt driven conveyor feeds the chain driven trommel. Equipped with rotary dials to control the speeds and XT60 connectors for motors and battery.

Great job, that looks like a really nice setup

What are the mesh sizes it screens?

Really clean looking build, it looks really robust as well. Do you have a video of it running?

I am the OP but for some reason I have two accounts.

Have been posting videos of it on the FB group "Cally RC Construction". To post here means You Tubing it - not a big deal - but my computer is so old (still on Windows 7!) it no longer works with my new phone. New computer coming soon.

About the trommel...it has been only "so-so" so far and wont rate it any higher until Cleo at HH sends me (and others) a tray to go underneath and in between the conveyor and the drum. There is too much falling in between and its going into the electronics box and also in the drum chain/pinion area . I tried a few things on my own but nothing stops it. Something is going to break if it is not rectified... so it is just sitting right now :( waiting for him to come through with his piece
