My father told me that you want a lazy man that will work hard on almost every crew, that way someone is always looking for an easier, more efficient way while your getting it done. If everyone is just concentrating on working hard, nobody would think of new ways that are easier and faster, or even just easier and safer. Thanks for the craftsmenship, and the information, I can't wait to see this stuff in use! Peace.
I love this. I’m that lazy guy. I work really hard to be lazy. If I can find a faster, more efficient, safer way to do things, I usually end up doing that. Half the time, my ways end up being the thing no one thought of till my lazy butt showed up looking for break time. 😉
@gyvren How does that old saying go? "Lazy" is the mother of all creation..... no " necessity is the mother of all creation. I like the Lazy one better hahah
Subscribed after watching this video, Started watching because of you collab with Dan Hurd. Started following Dan Hurd because he did a collab with Ghost Town Living. I doubt I will ever need to build a prospecting rig. I just enjoy living vicariously through the lives of people with motivation. Keep on keepin' on!
Thanks Wabash!! Welcome to the channel. I don't upload as often as the big guys just because I do this youtube thing as a hobby. During the winters I at least get a video out every 2 weeks.
Yes true that !!! I wish I had all my fabrication equipment still. I sold it all when I moved back here. One day I will get a bigger shop again and start buying all my goodies back.
I'm actually not sure what it would be GGH. I would guess 500-700 lbs?????? The tounge weight is only 100 lbs approx, a guy can lift and rotate it by hand.
@@TheMiningChannel absolutely awesome! I been looking into some through savonna, you made it look so easy lol I may attempt to build one now. Absolutely amazing craftsmanship!
Awesome I knew you took my advice and built me a nice little five to 10 yd an hour trommel for my mining operation. Thank you. On a more serious note that's one hell of a nice-looking trommel all I wish I had one
Thanks a lot Shane :) The hardest part to building one is thinking about the idea and starting the project. If a person starts collecting things throughout the years next thing you know you can throw one together.
@@TheMiningChannel haven't seen a video from you in 3 weeks, hope all is well. Probably busy starting the mining season. If you want some company I'll be in quesnel from may 17-24th. My acreage is 4 miles east and 1/4 mile north off barkerville highway. Cheers Matt
@Hippie Matt @Hippie Matt Hey Matt!!! Yes I'm hard at it at the claim now. I'll have a new video out this Saturday hopefully of my setup and forst run. Yes I wouldn't mind some company, I won't be out at the site from the 17th-20th though. You can text me at 1-250-859-3906.
Thanks a lot Steven. My uploading has been pretty slow lately. Just getting into the groove of things out at the mine. Lots of videos coming out soon though. Thanks for watching:)
Thanks Robert, I will have a update video coming out this winter with some modifications I am going to do to it. A few things to tweak but did work well:)Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for this video, I have watched it half a dozen times. Question, at the end of the video you mention you will share the angles, measurements, etc, I have watched all of your other videos and can not find where it was shared, are you able to pass on the design specs for this trommel? Again, thanks so much for the knowledge and information.
Hey Chris, I haven't had a chance to get them on paper yet. I'll make sure I mention it in a video though once they are ready. You will be the first to get them though!!!
Hey tyler!! Great build man!! Just heard about your chanel thank to dan hurd lol looking forward to more of your videos, hope your finding lots of gold!! Be safe
I understand that been building things my whole life enjoy the satisfaction i created, build, and operate just like planned lol it looks like mighty fine paydirt your on, productive! If i might ask whats the biggest nugget you found from there? Be safe out there!!
@clintlalonde5760 that's the best part about a tradesman. The satisfaction of seeing it all at the end. The largest nugget was on the other side of the valley the day after Dan left last year. Weighed in at almost 1/2 ounce. Didn't have much character to it, just looked like a round ball haha
Hey tyler hows mining going? Happy thanksgiving hey i have a question i bought a gold cube 4 stack im looking for mats i cant really afford the gold cube mats just wondering if theres compatible mats that i can use at a more reasonable price? I hope your getting lots of gold lol if you see this mssg could you please let me know i would appreciate it very much have a nice holiday hope to talk to you soon, Clint lalonde
So not that I’ll ever go gold mining but I’ve been curios why a lot more people haven’t done this size set up , yea I realize bigger is better you need to feed a lot of payload thru the machine in order to find a lot of gold , but for someone that can’t afford a big trammel this seems like a practical way to go , the weekend warrior could back this bad boy up to a stream or river and maybe make some deceit money, now you had the skills to produce a really great set up with just stuff you had setting around but if someone was to build one how much would they have invested in it ? I would think that there could be decent money just building these for the general public , but wtf do I know I’m not a miner 😂. Great job would of really liked to have seen that bad boy fired up and seeing how much gold it can get ! 👍🏼💲💲💲💲💲💲💲
Hey Tyler. Thank you leaps and bounds for these videos. I have a single question. I'm building this exact plant. But, alas...I have tried to find that series of radicon and I've had no dice. I've searched the 70 on it even. Care to share which series it is? Love the spider gear coupling. That little bit of rubber saves chain wear(stretch). having the "soft" start due to thar rubber helps a ton.
Hey David, I will have some out for everyone at the beginning of winter. I haven't had time to get them together since I've been so busy at the mine. I'll make sure I make a post for everyone to know they are available.
This was really great! I watched the video of it in use before this, and when the box/square tubing was spraying water out of a pin hole, it got me wondering how this was all plumbed up haha Do you have any issues with water getting trapped inside the plumbing, or does it all drain out from the inlets? Really like all the features and thought put into what at first seemed like such a simple device!
Thanks Sauspreme!@ Some water does get trapped below the inlets but does have a small drain down there as well. I will have another video out this winter of some modifications I need to do to it.
Question for you. For the chain not slipping off. Couldn't you make a guide just like the same concept as a bike chain? Is that plausible? Practical? Let me know. Your video inspired me. Thanks. 😎👍🇨🇦
Yes that would work 100%!!!! Be simple to make a small sheetmetal ring on each side of the sprocket. That would prevent it from popping off. The unit got about 100 hours on it this summer and didn't have a issue but one day it will happen, hahah . Thanks for watching:)
I just found your channel. Nice build !! I know this season is almost done, but for next season, if you are mining central B.C, would you like some help ? I could use more experience
Hey Thomas, I have a video of a trommel build from a few months ago on my channel. That unit would be capable of 20-30 yph with the 3 foot wide sluice. If a person went to a 4.foot wide sluice that unit would do 25- 35 no problem. I will have a cut sheet and schematics for it on the web one day for people.
Im trying to build my own trommel based solely on your videos! Im trying to do one with a 3 foot barrel.. i noticed in this video you said you would post the dimensions but i cant seem to find them. If i give you my email or something would there be any way you could send me some plans? Love your work man, your trommels are awesome!
@kalebverley680. Hey bud, sorry I haven't had time to get the measurements out to anyone. You can fire me an email at liquidsteel@hotmail.ca and I will send you some info on the measurements. Thanks for watching my videos!
Run car exhaust in there for 45 minutes before you start cutting it And then drill holes along the area where you're going to cut it so fumes can escape Or fill it full of water and keep the hose going in there so it never empties with water as you're cutting it and you will remain safe cuz nothing can catch on fire if it's all very than water
👏👏👏👏 Bravo... Hut's off on you engineer.. would like to buy one like that from you please send me your price if it's possible. Coze I believe your pocket friendly 😊
They are sealed barrel bearings. I have used them in the past and work well for smaller units but anything larger they grenade. Not my favorite to use but work well on a budget.
@TheMiningChannel Ouch! I just paid 132 for a 12"×36×3/8! Is that for a 4x8 sheet? To make a mini bucket. I like your mini sluice,but I have an idea to use a trailer that you haul your mini on by converting it into a sluice! I take it your in bc ! Thanx for the reply,cardboard aided design,I like that, I wonder how many caught that ! Computer aided design ! Regarding claims in bc,you stated bc has a lot of rules: I had claims in bc,I was told I only needed to file my report of assessment and my technical report or sow,(which needs better clarification)and I can't use my old data,when i buy back my claims!The girl in the office refused my report because I had not put my " event #" and she didn't bother to look it up,even though she's in front of a computer,the younger generation thinks the computer will do all the work,I called her a lazy dog fucker!(I apologized later)and I was just gettong over being sick do just a bit itritable! Not that I'm abusive towards woman,but she ticked me off,by being lazy and costing me my claims! ,but that office has questionable ethics,one told me I could remove abandoned equipemt,then when I asked Victoria main office for a release,she asked me who said that,so i told her it was a secretaty in the Hornby office,who called me shortly thereafter and boldfaced lied and denied she said that! I also sent it as a paper report,she said they prefer it online,don't have to actually do any work that way I guess! An interesting comment about mining in the in the Yukon versus BC, 3 years ago, you had to do an environmental assessment of fish and wildlife. it sounds like that's all changed! Perhaps you can make cad plans for the sliuce & trommel ? Note,any time a prospector in BC WITH A FREEMINERS CERTIFICATE, buys a claim, it automatically generates an"event number" that anyone in the ministry of mines in Bc can see,just by pulling up your licence and prospectors number,there is no excuse for the behavior of these office clerks to sit there and not bother to look up any "event number of a claim you purchased " the office on Hornby st, in dt Vancouver, I've been in and I could only see 2 secretaries divide 1000 claims to review by 300 days!secretaries working there! I bantered back and forth with this woman to get my reports of work in,if there's only about 1000 claims in bc to view reports on,I find it redundant that they are so used to having the computer do it all, paper reports are acceptable,also reports on dvd or cdrom,but they like the online version,as they only have to verify your report of work complies ,but to sit there,and file your fingernails, put on makeup,I told her off,your just sitting there looking pretty,aka not doing much work! Couldn't be bothered to enter my event number,and I asked her why she didn't! She just sent me on the merry go round of rules I need to read,instead of putting my event number on the file, which cost me my claims! Thanks Brianna. And there's a Pakistani man who was rude,he referred to me as" this guy"! In 2007,I asked if there were open claims on Scotch creek,the Hornby office said yes,but a month later, they were all Gone, insider trading????
Day 3 after getting a complete ankle reconstruction. Mini wash plant that can handle a bucket at a time from my old mans backhoe is getting higher on the list.

Hahaha the autobody background kicks in. Mine would be painted too!!
Yup gotta make it look good to make it dirty ..
What a beauty! I wonder if there is a market for this size trommel for small claims?
I think there would be. There is a company in town that builds them and they seem to sell a lot.
that is a great job done! It doesn't get any better than that
Awesome video, I love the paint job. 👊
Thanks PSFL!!! They always look nice new , then once there at the claim they get all dinged up and scratched haha.

What angle should the trommel be at? How many gallon is the tank you used?
Good job ! We knock the bearings out of the Chinese wheels ( under the barrel ) and bore them to a 50mm shaft !
Good call. I used to use these wheels on a bit larger units amd do the same. The roller bearing they come with are junk.
Keep up the good work 👏

Fill the tank with water but you can use an old steel oil drum much safer and light
Run car exhaust in there for 45 minutes before you start cutting it
And then drill holes along the area where you're going to cut it so fumes can escape
Or fill it full of water and keep the hose going in there so it never empties with water as you're cutting it and you will remain safe cuz nothing can catch on fire if it's all very than water
How much time and money did you spend?
Well Done!

do you build them to sell I know you do a lot of mining just wondering if you sell them and how much if you did
Hey JOS! Im not selling them, but this size would typically be on the market for around 12k Canadian.
Hi sir.how can i contact you to ask for your opinion about what i want to built for gold trommel?
Hope those are stainless steel bearings, they may fill up with grit , rust and give you trouble.
They are sealed barrel bearings. I have used them in the past and work well for smaller units but anything larger they grenade. Not my favorite to use but work well on a budget.

,but that office has questionable ethics,one told me I could remove abandoned equipemt,then when I asked Victoria main office for a release,she asked me who said that,so i told her it was a secretaty in the Hornby office,who called me shortly thereafter and boldfaced lied and denied she said that!
I also sent it as a paper report,she said they prefer it online,don't have to actually do any work that way I guess!
An interesting comment about mining in the in the Yukon versus BC, 3 years ago, you had to do an environmental assessment of fish and wildlife. it sounds like that's all changed!
Perhaps you can make cad plans for the sliuce & trommel ?
Note,any time a prospector in BC WITH A FREEMINERS CERTIFICATE, buys a claim, it automatically generates an"event number" that anyone in the ministry of mines in Bc can see,just by pulling up your licence and prospectors number,there is no excuse for the behavior of these office clerks to sit there and not bother to look up any "event number of a claim you purchased " the office on Hornby st, in dt Vancouver, I've been in and I could only see 2 secretaries divide 1000 claims to review by 300 days!secretaries working there!
I bantered back and forth with this woman to get my reports of work in,if there's only about 1000 claims in bc to view reports on,I find it redundant that they are so used to having the computer do it all, paper reports are acceptable,also reports on dvd or cdrom,but they like the online version,as they only have to verify your report of work complies ,but to sit there,and file your fingernails, put on makeup,I told her off,your just sitting there looking pretty,aka not doing much work! Couldn't be bothered to enter my event number,and I asked her why she didn't! She just sent me on the merry go round of rules I need to read,instead of putting my event number on the file, which cost me my claims!
Thanks Brianna.
And there's a Pakistani man who was rude,he referred to me as" this guy"!
In 2007,I asked if there were open claims on Scotch creek,the Hornby office said yes,but a month later, they were all
Gone, insider trading????
Day 3 after getting a complete ankle reconstruction. Mini wash plant that can handle a bucket at a time from my old mans backhoe is getting higher on the list.
This unit size would be perfect for a backhoe!! I will have a update video coming out this spring on some things I am changing. Thanks for watching:)
