Re: RCP Compound
I happen to like the Kubota diesel sound from this screener. Call it a selling feature. I am curious to see powder coat options. Mahogany and want maybe?

Re: RCP Compound
Wow I hope my Kubota never sounds as bad as this screener does! Maybe I should replace the plywood pieces with Oak or Teak. That way it would varnish up nicely.

Re: RCP Compound
I haven't tried it to say for sure but the reason I think it won't work is it will shake empty but how well it would shake once you dump material on the screen. I don't think it will shake strong enough?..... Hmmm, maybe 2 of them with different weights for a good shake? Might have to try that this weekend

Re: RCP Compound
I think it would depend on a couple of factors, 1 is the material very dry or wet, and 2 how much or how little material you dump on the deck at once? I think the vibrator idea has it's uses() but I like the mechanical shaker because it will always shake no matter what. That's not to say that the material will pour through it though as the points above still apply they just won't stall it out. If time any money spent were no objects then I would build a trommel.

Re: RCP Compound
I have been finding myself living a episode of junkyard wars!!! Trying to find pieces and parts because I'm a cheap redneck!! I do believe if I had a million dollars I would still be sifting through scrap piles, just would be bigger piles!!!! Lol!!! This is all good because you guys are getting the bugs worked out for me!! I'll be able to start my project with some confidence in it working first time!! Lol!!! And our one mower has a 30hp kubota motor, it does have a little bit of rattle knocking sound. Always thought something was about to let loose, been thinking that for about 4-5 years now . Ain't like a cat puring that's for sure . Looking good and keep it going!!

Re: RCP Compound
I agree! Even if I won the lotto I would still probably never buy a kit machine or any really fancy parts. I am a builder and a hoarder so I would spend my dough on more shop machinery and hoard that much more stuff. I find myself looking at my materials now and not wanting to use certain pieces even though they would be perfect for the job just so that I can save them for later. I think that I would do the same even if I were rich. I'm a weirdo what can I say...

Re: RCP Compound
Rate of decent is important when using a vibrator on the screen. I never measured mine, but I hazard a guess to say 15 degrees +, depends on how dry the material is. The wetter it is - the steeper the decent.
I have screened several yards with this one over the yrs. It's a 12v 380 motor, the output shaft is about 1/16th, the counter weight is 4mm rod coupler from Mecanno with a 8mm length bolt screwed into the collar to secure it to the shaft. I think the motor's rpm is about 11 000. The motor disintegrates eventually, but each one does last a long time. http://youtu.be/15xwKUVjyBw

Re: RCP Compound
A couple of days back my milling machine died bringing every project in my shop the a halt. Needless to say that has not put me in a good mood so yesterday when Chaseracer(Jason) called at lunchtime to say he was off work early and coming out for a visit, I was stoked! After an hour or so of discussing future projects and so on we decided to move a little dirt to level up the "work site". This was Jason's first time hauling dirt in the converted Bruder pup that we put together and I have to say it worked pretty well for the effort we put in to make it function. It was a lot of fun for me to have someone else there working in the dirt pile. Hopefully next time we can start working on some more specific details around the pit but for now this was great!

Re: RCP Compound
We've had some fairly good wind storms here over the last few weeks and it's caused the cedar trees to drop a lot of small, dead branches all over the place. This last week has been cold and dry here but it's about to change so yesterday I borrowed my parents leaf blower to blast all the crap off the roofs and out of the gutters before the rain comes. Once I was doing it, I realized how much there was all over the yard so today was "fire day" to clean it all up. Of course what started as a small project turned into two machine piled fires in two different parts of the yard(they're still ripping and I need to go stoke them again), some clearing with my mini excavator, and of course some RC time. When I first started with the excavator my intention was only to move a couple of rotten pieces of wood and flatted out a small lump of dirt. The next thing I knew I was knocking over small trees and making bigger fires!lol Once the major work was done I decided to bring out the Tigercat for a test of it's new rear drive motor. I am impressed with it's increased power and can't wait for the second motor to arrive!
