How to make my own mesh classifier?

[Joel1316]

I want to make my own classifier. I have a concrete mixing tub, now I want to build a classifer that will fit midway in the tub. That way I can shovel in dirt, shake the classifier and toss the large rocks.
Where can I find the mesh? What do I ask for at the local hardware store?
How should I create the frame (I don't want to re-invent the while, not unless I really need to)?

I go the cheap route....plastic food strainer/collendor.....I use over my panner to trap the fine stuff. I clean, pick over the rock in the strainer for large pieces of possible gold or garnet and nice stone for cabochons. Multi strainers can be redrilled for larger holes.
