I have an old cellar hole by me that gets hammered because there are so few where I live. I decided that my new approach would be to dig and sift the dirt in and around the cellar hole, where the ground is almost a constant iron signal from nails and junk. I think this will help me not only clear out some nails and iron bits, but help me find other random things like marbles and such!
I built on some other relic sifters that I have seen posted around the web and came up with this simple idea, then built it after work today. Basically it starts up folded up so you can carry it like a briefcase. You pull down the legs and once they're loose, they freely swing so that you can rock it back and forth to do the sifting. I used 1/2" machine cloth for the filter part, and attached it using drywall screws and washers.
