Parts for a Dry Washer

Posted by Jason Smith on November 10, 2012 at 10:50am in Questions and other things

I plan to build a bellow or blower drywasher. I am having a hard time figuring out some items

Riffle tray: Muslin. is there different grades f Muslin (Thread count)? does it matter what I order.

Does it matter how far apart I make the riffles?

Bellow: Is Canvas the best material?

Drive line: 12 Volt Motor. What kind motor? Also what specs do I need on the motor?

How do I fix the motor shaft to move up to 5/8" for pulley?

Any links an suggestions on all parts are welcome. I am in the middle of no where so I will have to order things to make this. I do have the tools to make the project.

Thank you.
