12" Homemade Trommel, Wood Frame, PVC Barrel, 12v motor

[SunshineMiner]

Hey Everyone, Here's a video of my "new" trommel. Hope some of you can gather some inspiration for your builds as i've gathered MUCH from here at T-Net and I thank you all for that! Wish I knew how to weld, otherwise she'd probably be totally different! Some day...
Anyway... if you have any questions, ask away!





Thanks for watching!

I like it !

Only thing I could see was the gravels sliding in the drum instead of tumbling.
You may want to add some cleats. Otherwise great build, nice long sluice as well

So how about some construction details and construction pictures? What is the drum, drive system, etc.
Love homebuilt stuff and this looks nice
