    Hi Tyler,
    It looks as you do nothing else than building such trommels.
    Will you build in diagonal braces between the runners or do you think the frame is stiff enough?
    Best regards from Germany!

    • @TheMiningChannel
      @TheMiningChannel  Рік тому +2

      Hey BLOTB. I try and build one every year or two to keep me busy. I don't really build them for other people, I just collect them haha. The frame is plenty stiff enough in the center and output end where the 6x6 tubing is but will add a X diagonal at the hopper end to stop any movement from left to right.

    8:40 just out of curiosity did you angle those pieces so you didn’t end up with material sticking there? Hard to see on the camera back to the vid…man these are crazy good episodes if I ever find a great placer deposit I know who to get to build me a trommel…. In winter of course thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼

      Hey 48th, those end caps are just straight up and down. I will have some spray bars in those areas to keep material from building up. My 4 footer is just like that and material doesn't build up due to the amount of water in the hopper. Thanks for watching:)

    How do you work out the yardage it can run ? Is it the diameter of the trommel or the size of the sluice or something completely different

    • @TheMiningChannel
      @TheMiningChannel  Рік тому +3

      There is usually a few factors that make that decision. First would be barrel/ screen size. The larger diameter barrel the more square footage of screen there is for material to drop through, length of screen section also plays a roll along with the screen hole size. From there sluice box size is next, there is a rule of thumb of every foot width of box you can put into the wash plant 8 cubic yards, I plan to run a 3 foot wide box so I would be in the 20-30 yph. Then finally there is your water pump size, a person is ideally looking for a 10:1 ratio of water to material in the sluice. a 4 inch pump would supply that ratio on this size of wash plant.

    What thickness is the steel plate in the hopper?

    • @TheMiningChannel
      @TheMiningChannel  Рік тому +1

      That was 1/4 inch GB. That would be the thinnest a guy should go. My 4 footer is 1/4 inch also, it has 8000 hours on it and it's just starting to get thin.

      Yes and no, a lot of the die hard tradesman welders will pre heat the steel if it is cold out. This is only 1/4 thick steel so I don't bother, plus I get lazy sometimes lol.
