      Simple but it worked. I would have to be drinking something if I was going to do it all day though. Thanks Vern. Stevo

      My buddy is the one that built it and is probably gone by now. The tough part would be to find the mesh then build a frame around it. He had it hinged but I am not sure you need that. I thought that if I was to wash rock in the future, I would use a potable cement mixer to do the dirty work. Just a thought. Thanks. Stevo

    How's she goin'? It sure doesn't take long for washed gravel to fill up with dirt and dust. This is a good way to clean it. I like the table set up with the hinge. Thanks for sharing. Take care!!

      I was surprised at how much dirt was in the gravel but it cleaned it up good. Thanks Mike. Stevo

    I want to know how the 1/4" mesh and shelving are attached to the frame. I am removing gravel from my yard and this looks perfect!

      I believe it is sandwiched between those strips of wood. One below and one on top. It worked pretty good. Thanks for tuning in. Stevo

    It might be a good idea to set up your system and use the wastewater near plants. You are literally washing dirt? I have a similar setup. but I do it near plants. I live in Vegas so we try to conserve water.

      That is a great idea. A little dirt in the water won't hurt a thing. I will pass that on to my buddie for the next time he does it. Thanks. Stevo

    I would put a Gorilla cart under to catch the loose stuff. Remove when washing

      I have thought of using a portable cement mixer to wash the rocks as well. Might be an option. Thanks. Stevo

    Great if you've got a strong back and a good 6 weeks to dedicate to this. Imagine a bed with any size to it and then doing this. Work fine but about the most labor-intensive project you could do. Hire it out at exhorbitant cost, too.

      I was glad that it was a friends project and not mine. It does take some time to do but fortunately he only had a small area to do. Thanks. Stevo

      This was a friend doing this and he said it took about two hours or so. It does require some patience. Thanks. Stevo
