Where can I start my comments? I guess kudos to you for involving 3 (and sometimes 4) of your young children in this project. This is exactly how children learn AND gain confidence in accomplishing a task. Secondly, and just as importantly, what a novel idea to build your compost sifter. I am sure your idea will be replicated by others. Using the Saw-zall was certainly thinking outside the box, but you realized the negative affect on the power tool using it to move the sifter. With 3 little big helpers to operate the sifter, the job should get done manually in a short time. I really like your idea!
You're not wrong! 🤣🤣🤣 I quickly realized that, although it is possible, it's probably not a good idea. That's why I made sure to include that bit at the end.
What a beautiful family! Wow!!
Thanks for taking the time to make this video - well done *Dad points too!
Your children will benefit from their lifetime working with you!
I learned a work ethic by being alongside my dad, so I hope to pass that on.

Bonus effect: This has become a way for my older two to earn a little money. They get paid per container of sifted compost. It's really worked well!
@@arewehomesteadingyet Dad, you are definitely on the right parent track!
Probably could just add wooden blocks instead of the bolts to prevent it from digging into the lower frame, also music at the beginning is a bit much.
Thanks for the feedback. You're right about that music. I had some trouble getting the audio mixed right on this one. I'll do better in the future!
