On Installing the Mesh......Cant find the instructions I used to build mine , but this will work(maybe even better) Just add the pool noodle as I did for flotation And I would install the mesh lower in the bucket as I did.

Thanks RTR - appreciate it!

Looks like a winter project as the ground is starting to freeze up in Michigan already.

In the summer months it pays to carry a pair of xray vision glasses like the ones you could buy on the last page of the comic books...<grin>

I'm not a beach hunter (yet) but as far as classifiers go... I always assumed the the scoop itself was the classifier. Is it just quicker and easier to dump your scoop at surface level? I made and used a floating classifier hunting a freshwater lake with a rocky bottom but wonder what's the benefit in sand?

Depends on the sand. VERY dry sand, a sifting scoop is great and fast. If the sand is even the slightest bit damp, it clumps. Much fast to dig and dump until the target is out of the hole, then find it in the pile.

Thanks. I can understand that. Mainly curious as to benefits of using a floating classifier in the water with beach sand.

Ah, I missed your intent then. Several situations make floating sifters valuable tools. Large amounts or rocks, broken coral or clay-mud. You cant sift those through a scoop and you can have a ring sitting at the bottom of a scoop filled with debris. Dump it in a floating screen and it easier to sort, and you can let the heavy clay-mud dissolve on it own (or just push it through if youre in a hurry )
