Default Re: Trommel Build
Spring blocks and new rollers are machined. The initial spring setup was crude but was helpful in getting an idea what the movement was going to be like. Determined a stronger rate spring was needed to handle more weight in the hopper. Also added a heavy counter weight to the shaker motor to increase agitation due to the stiffer springs. Wired up and painted...Works well, Test video attached.
