Well it took some time, and I got some more concrete on sale at home depot. I finished the last portion of the road. I took a spin around a few times with the truck and trailer for a test run.

I'm now ready to expand. NEED more road!!!!!!

so on the finishing up on the gravel sifter/sorter, I mounted a new geared motor that has the appropriate speed and strength. I chose to go with direct drive for less moving parts. I also had to raise the screen about a 1 1/2".

Then I raised the height of the bay walls.http://

And I now need to find a way to feed this beast.

I was wondering should I make a shaker feeder or buy another Bruder conveyor to make a feeder.? And was thinking painting it red.

make the hopper mouth bigger for pay loaders and bad excavtor operators

I had this trough I was working on a while ago and was thinking it would make a nice vibrating hopper.

I goin to make a few cuts and add a few pieces to it and see if it can work.

Now getting this thing to vibrate is going to be a task.

[mcl fabrication]

Now to figure out how to fasten this down. I have no idea but ill figure something out.

[mcl fabrication]
