Clarke Rotary Soil Sieve CRS400

Product Information

Fix both ends with cable ties then begin work on the center rim. I used a length of timber to ensure this rim was evenly centered in the tube. It helped to have a second person assisting placing the cable ties from the outside while someone is reaching into the chamber...it's quite awkward. Pro tip: Begin your first cable tie at the edge of the mesh then continue around the mesh. I didn't do this (I began in the middle) and ended up with the mesh pulling in slightly. Happily it hasn't affected performance. The mixing process – and the mixing of different soil types – can also be done with the rotary sieve. Also if you are unfortunate enough to have stony ground, you can sieve the stones and return the stone free soil to your garden. The children’s sandpit can also be regularly cleaned and sieved.

This instructable is a companion to my previous Bike Spoke Forged Knife. In that instructable I used the bicycle spokes, here I've used the wheel rims. Excellent build! I have an allotment with all sorts in the soil, and a load of bike wheel rims (received free!). This is something I plan to build and use in spring. Ideal for use in the garden or allotment. Sieve soil & compost to get smooth, fine results. Spring loaded handle applies pressure to the compost or soil forcing it through the mesh.Follow our five easy steps below, to create your own homemade soil sieve. Or, if you’d prefer to buy a ready-made sieve, we’ve also collated a selection of the best garden sieves on the market right now.

I built one with no motor and only wood and the sifting part. The barrel rests on the wheels, the wheels are mounted to 4x4s (old fence posts), and the 4x4s bolt to some sawhorses. It comes apart for storage, and the sawhorses are usable elsewhere.

These scheppach rotary garden sieves won’t let anything pass that you deem too coarse. With this sieve you refine large quantities of soil or compost, or even the children‘s sandpit. The adjustable angle of the sieve drum as well asthe different mesh widths facilitate sieving the utmost variety of materials. With a bit of trepidation, I wheeled the trommel out to our compost heap. Those pesky apricot stones were about to be dislodged! vee belts (assorted sizes until I figured out what I needed - one large belt to drive the mesh tube) It occurs to me that the type of open-frame litter bin I've seen (designed to hold a plastic liner), which has a cylinder of large-size (about 2-inch squared?) wire mesh, could be repurposed instead of using bike rims, if lined with a finer-grade mesh.

This galvanised steel garden sieve from Crocus has a 30cm diameter and is finished with a clear lacquer. It has two handles on either side to help with grip. I really didn't know how the machine would perform. Was the mesh too small...the rotation speed wrong; the angle of the frame incorrect...lots of decisions I'd made were about to be tested.Gumtree.com Limited is an Introducer Appointed Representative of CarMoney Limited who are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, FRN 674094.
