As an old guy living in a townhouse in Florida, I will never need a rock crusher...I still feel compelled to watch every update video on this behemoth.
@@ModernSelfRelianceDefinitely, currently I'm collecting rock to do some traditional paving in the garden. Every time I see somebody giving rocks away for free I'm happy like a little boy who found a rock treasure.
I can't not watch the rock crusher! It's weirdly, delightfully entertaining. Your rock bucket is brilliant, the shaker chute is the definition of anticipation. Well done, Kevin!
Hi Kevin, the rock crusher / fabrication videos are awesome. You might say, they rock!!! I love the switch to working with metal too. I really enjoy the diversity of builds lately. That said, I’ve enjoyed every video for years now. Keep doing what you’re doing! Thanks so much for the entertaining, informative and educational content! You’re awesome!!!
Rebar tip: When you are looking at rebar, at least ASTM standard rebar, if it has a W it is weldable, if it has an S it is not (IE, its high carbon and welds are likely to crack). While the weldable is more expensive, I've found the big box stores often have weldable rebar by accident It can be sized in metric or US standard. Metric is pretty obvious, but for US standard it'll have a number 3 thru 11 and that is the equivelent in eighths of an inch. So 3 bar would be the same cross sectional area as 3/8" round bar (so about 10mm +\-, then 4 bar is 4/8 (or 1/2"), etc. The other number that'll be present is the strength (60 for 60,000 psi strength or 420 for 420 MPA for instance), that wont be relevant for what you are wanting to do.
Nice job on stick welding for the first time. I approve it. A screed build for that bucket would be cool to watch. Have a good week see ya next Saturday
I agree but I have been trying to film projects I do but I will tell you from experience some times you forget to set up and turn on the camera. When it takes a week to do projects it adds so much more time to complete them wile filming. You almost need a camera man to film ya fabing things. Don't beleave me check out me welding the hinge on my jeep and "the barefoot wonderer" I have done alot of projects since the video and the filming and editing took about as much time to do as the project.
if you mean 'patent', sadly, no, this sort of industrial equipment exists in almost every quarry ever, literal industrial lego. The one in the video is a cheap downsized / scaled-down version of all that, missing quite a few steps, and so on. And there's quite a few folks on youtube that have bought similar base machines and showcased them after some modifications of their own. At our mine site, and at one of our sub plant areas, we literally have three kingpin trailers of crusher machinery - one for the crusher and a set of conveyors, another for the control room and generator house combined, and the last one is the tall pile conveyor. Another plant is a fixed one and has two jaw crushers, three multilayer shaker decks, and two cone crushers, and can make different sizes based on demand. Product sizes need changing? Swap screens, adjust cone crusher gaps, done.

Thank you that was interesting ... my grandpa was a blacksmith and had a welding shop in a small farming community -- young men were inspired by his craft and talents. They would watch from the sidewalk and go on to having their own welding businesses. He mostly did stick welding
Always interesting to see other's methods or attempts. At the end of the day, it's just going point to point until you get the job done. Great video. Yeah, do more.
Amazing! You have realized your rock crushing dreams! You just kept powdering through and trying different things until you got it to work. Impressive.
Those diamond saws have been around for a while in the fab shops. However they do most of their cutting with a lazer cnc now. I even saw one that cut with water.
I was wondering, do you get much rock dust collecting when you're crushing rocks? People sell rock dust to add to your garden soil as a mineral supply for plants. That would be another awesome benefit of this magical machine for your garden.
Hey Kevin! You should totally set up a channel membership here on UA-cam. It’s a monthly subscription that can start as low as a couple of bucks, with options for higher tiers too. It could be a nice way for you to earn some extra income, and I bet a lot of us viewers would be happy to support you that way! Plus, it wouldn't feel like just donating - you could add perks for members, like an extra video each month, Q&A sessions, and other cool stuff. It would be a great way for your fans to show appreciation and get some extra content in return. The community would get even stronger, and you wouldn’t have to stress as much about views. Setting it up is all within UA-cam and isn’t too complicated. Just wanted to share the idea since I’ve seen a lot of other UA-camrs doing this. Thanks so much for all the awesome content, and keep the great videos coming!
The offset weight of the shaker does not impart any horizontal movement. It only creates vertical displacement. The direction of rotation is irrelevant.
The big boy crushers tend to use Stover nuts (aka automation lock nuts or prevailing torque hex nuts) or you could put a jam nut on if there is enough thread
The vibrating shoot needs a piece of slotted metel putting in just before it enters the crusher which will help remove the mud & clay thats been clinging onto your rocks. You could be running the whole thing ie the crusher, conveyor and vibrating deck all on the Chinese motor and am not sure why you didn't build it to be self contained as you need an electric supply to run it .
The engine probably doesn't have enough horse to do all that, and even if it did, they'd have to make a clutch mechanism and a quick safety disconnect for the drivetrain for the other parts. An alternator off the engine and DC motors to drive the entire thing might be a feasible option - that is, if brushless motors with enough torque existed for this sort of application. Generator power heads for AC... that's a tough sell unless they have a power head small enough to run everything else without stalling the engine.
Your shaker needs to almost duplicate the gear train of the rock crusher itself. It needs to be heavy and slow. I think I would find a way to actually drive it off of the diesel or one of the belt grooves of the crusher instead of the electric motor. You might could even use a big truck tire and a flat belt as a flywheel/ pulley setup. If your initial setup was electricity, it would be a good example of converting ac to rectifed dc lol.
Kevin great video man! Again, love the way you think out of the box man. The bigger motor, the cogs and the belt system are very cool. Like the dry cutting saw, low sparks when you cutting and low heat as well, gotta love the tech in that! The fabrication you did on the bucket was really good man really good! It is a great idea there to have dirt, sand, and smaller objects fall out and keep the rocks! That will come in handy I would think on projects involving digging. The insert I believed you mentioned would be a great idea as well, you may not have to change buckets that often when doing a project. Look forward to your next video. Take care.
Sorry about all the comments I just love commenting, constructively. So a part of the comfortable position in welding. Once the rod is clamped, you can bend it however you like, I usually bent it so the stinger handle and rod are at 45degrees. So very down from as initially held. I even have wrapped the rod around the stinger, to shorten it up for a tight spot. As long as the flux coating is intact on the portion of the rod you will be using you're fine.
At 16:30 , you may not necessarily need a stronger motor at this point. If you watch the startup you will notice The table oscillates (shakes) with a longer up and down throw as it is starting up and then kind of hits an equilibrium point once it gets up to speed. If you swapped to a bugger pulley on the shaker table shaft you could slow it down to that sweet spot where there is more shake.
Hey Kevin, if you get the shaker table designed right you can actually convey material uphill. Right now you dont have a shaker table, you have a vibratory table. I dont know the optimal speed for a shaker conveyor, but from the ones I've seen it seems to be around 1-3 times per second (where you have probably 500 right now). I think your design can still be modified, but I'm not sure if an off center weight will do it or not. Rather, I think something like the mechanism of a powered hacksaw; have an off centered attachment on a pulley be the thing that actually shakes your table. You may also need some grabbing features like little angles. For testing this I think you could run some beads of weld and then use an angle grinder so that the steep angle faces the crusher and the shallow angle is on the feed side. As the table shakes the rocks will slide up the shallow side and then get caught on the steeper side. If the proof of concept works then you could re-do it with hardfacing rod for better longevity.
Link to an uphill shaker conveyor showing that the shaking concept can indeed push material uphill: ua-cam.com/video/PDUKGLU3qIk/v-deo.htmlsi=TNmtGCWrsJvtw0GE
You can get rods for a stick welder that will actually give you hardened steel, potentially weld a hardened steel edge on anything. I've seen a few people take really junky anvils and make them into "ok" anvils just by welding a layer on top and grinding it smooth.
Honestly the rock crusher saga doesn't interest me, but for the sake of the channel I am commenting because you are an amazingly talented content creator and skilled fabricator.
I hope you are wearing eye protection and a face mask. Very important you are not breathing that rock dust! Love your channel and content. All the best to you and yours.❤
Pulley, not Cog, but semantics.. Loved the video and experimentation! All the rest of the comment is moot if it's working for yeh :), I was required to run 300 metric ton a day. Having run and maintained it's 15 tall x 8foot wide bigger brother, the peaks of the teeth are the key to breaking the rock efficiently. Smaller peaks concentrate the force on a smaller area. Also dulling(even polishing of the plates) can cause rocks to bounce in the bite a lot more. Basically you change them when the machine stalls(jams solid) or chokes on your material at your preferred feed rate and over flows. Much less fun with 4x 2000kg blocks of carbon in there. Also our shaker decks have a lean on all 4 springs in the forward direction, but they are high flow on our primary crusher outfeed (smaller granular material). The front mount being more solid may effect the forward movement of the material, the straight spring supported rear, as you have, in all 4 corners. is what i'm use to.
The tilt on the spring might be the ticket to more movement. I haven't thought of that.. I had it flowing pretty good with the steeper angle. But I'll consider putting the spring at an angle. Thank you for the information.
You know according to the instructions when cutting square shapes you’re supposed to cut them set so the blade hits a corner first 🔸the blade will last longer 😉 Same with flat bar l No emojis for flat bar 👍
Can we move away from Chinese, and maybe onto Taiwan...😂😅 Loving the series! I hope you continue to amaze us with these off the wall, off grid, builds.😊 Love what you're doing ❤️
Maybe an opposing double pulley spring loaded tensioner for the shaker box belt will help with all the vibration you are getting with the single pulley on there now.
as for the wear plate, ive worked in many quarries with jaw crushers ( much larger of course) and the punch plate is a wear part but, on average we replaced them every 10 years at over 1m tons a year ran through them
Man you love this thing as much as we love watching you loving it. Also your weld doesn't look too bad. Speed is good, maybe a little quick, little inclusions. You'll know when imclusions happen when the weld looks spotty from the slag inside it.
I feel like the eccentric for the shaker deck is running the wrong direction, quick test would to wire that motor backwards and see if it moves the material better. If that's the case you can get creative with some gearing to spin it opposite and still keep the conveyor moving the proper direction. Awesome video, I wish I had the time and space to build stuff like this!
They are called witness marks, used for centuries. An overpass in Sudbury being rehabbed collapsed 15 years ago even though it was reported by many people that it had moved, and ignored. 20 bucks of 2X4s with witness marks would have prevented this
Hey, I think rock dust is getting into the trough where you pour water in which settles in the bottem of the tank and is why you have to clear out the drain every time
As an old guy living in a townhouse in Florida, I will never need a rock crusher...I still feel compelled to watch every update video on this behemoth.
They are fascinating machines, I think it goes way back to collecting rocks as a child.
@@ModernSelfRelianceDefinitely, currently I'm collecting rock to do some traditional paving in the garden. Every time I see somebody giving rocks away for free I'm happy like a little boy who found a rock treasure.

You made your own bucket in an afternoon. Love it. You're kinda my hero
You have a rock wall that you don't want to take down and sift by hand so you build a tool to do it with an excavator. Amazing
This version of the rock crusher is incredible, can't wait to see you put it to good use.

Kevin, while rock crushing is interesting and informational, I'll happily look forward to you going back to the cabin build in the next video...
Great video! Love seeing your "from scratch" builds and the stone bucket is top tier!
As a person that works on a crusher, you should have your shaker pully spinning in the direction you want your product to flow
The offset weight of the shaker does not impart any horizontal movement. It only creates vertical displacement. The direction of rotation is irrelevant.

That's such excellent work! Loved the new rock bucket. Well done!
that was great kevin. yes please make an interchangeable filtering cassette bucket. 5 stars *****
chop saw.....we use this atwork to cut pipe, angle, all kind of steel stuff
Honestly you did a pretty decent job with that welding although welding on thick materials is easier you get the hang of it

Glad to help
Man you can really tell how much work Don did lol gone maybe a month and you bought an earth auger, excavator and built a specialty bucket for it.
That is a pretty good weld for not using stick too often. Mig is easier but stick is cheaper
Slower speed for the shaker. Notice how much it shakes while it slows down. I could definitely hangout with ya bud. Thanks for amusing me in PA
At 16:30 , you may not necessarily need a stronger motor at this point. If you watch the startup you will notice The table oscillates (shakes) with a longer up and down throw as it is starting up and then kind of hits an equilibrium point once it gets up to speed. If you swapped to a bugger pulley on the shaker table shaft you could slow it down to that sweet spot where there is more shake.
And at 18:00 looks like you figured that out

Make the holes in the bucket around 2 or 3 inch squares or close to. You still want a bit of dirt with your gravel to help bind it together.

All the rest of the comment is moot if it's working for yeh :), I was required to run 300 metric ton a day.
Having run and maintained it's 15 tall x 8foot wide bigger brother, the peaks of the teeth are the key to breaking the rock efficiently. Smaller peaks concentrate the force on a smaller area. Also dulling(even polishing of the plates) can cause rocks to bounce in the bite a lot more.
Basically you change them when the machine stalls(jams solid) or chokes on your material at your preferred feed rate and over flows. Much less fun with 4x 2000kg blocks of carbon in there.
Also our shaker decks have a lean on all 4 springs in the forward direction, but they are high flow on our primary crusher outfeed (smaller granular material). The front mount being more solid may effect the forward movement of the material, the straight spring supported rear, as you have, in all 4 corners. is what i'm use to.
The tilt on the spring might be the ticket to more movement. I haven't thought of that.. I had it flowing pretty good with the steeper angle. But I'll consider putting the spring at an angle. Thank you for the information.

Maybe an opposing double pulley spring loaded tensioner for the shaker box belt will help with all the vibration you are getting with the single pulley on there now.
If you smell-el-el-el-el, what the Rock Crusher, is cooking!
as for the wear plate, ive worked in many quarries with jaw crushers ( much larger of course) and the punch plate is a wear part but, on average we replaced them every 10 years at over 1m tons a year ran through them
Thing of beauty.
What version of this are we now on exactly?
Weld your 4 inch spacers in the back of the bucket too. You're leaving a lot of good rock because it falls through the back of the bucket.
For some reason you sound more Canadian today 😂
.
must be closer to maple syrup season.
😂 I love it 👍
Man you love this thing as much as we love watching you loving it. Also your weld doesn't look too bad. Speed is good, maybe a little quick, little inclusions. You'll know when imclusions happen when the weld looks spotty from the slag inside it.
I feel like the eccentric for the shaker deck is running the wrong direction, quick test would to wire that motor backwards and see if it moves the material better. If that's the case you can get creative with some gearing to spin it opposite and still keep the conveyor moving the proper direction. Awesome video, I wish I had the time and space to build stuff like this!
You can also make a gravel road.
And update your new pond
Do a update on the cheap wood chipper and also do the cheapest log splitter on alibaba please that sounds cool
How are things in the ‘hood, Kev? Love the dew rag.
If you never stick welded that is pretty dam good job

Unbelievable man, ok now how much did the bucket cost to fab up? I want to be more like you when I grow up lol.
I bought the thick plate for $80. The rest was scrap.
Oh yeah you saved alot of money. Good job man. Your doing an awesome job at showing self reliance.
