Electric sifter

[lance b]

Anyone tried this before? I want to make a sifter with a sawzall battery packed and see how it does heres a quick drawing i did ,,,any input???

Seems like a feasible idea, but I see three things. FWIW

First, I think the load on the table will have to be limited in weight.

Second, it seems like securing the sawsall might be an issue but I am sure you have an idea for that.

Third, lots of battery packs.

Ya i need to bolt the front side of sawzall to the outer frame.

I've thought about the same thing with a weed eater or small lawn mower engine... It wouldn't be nearly as portable as yours though.

Old wiper motors work pretty good.

Let's see some pictures of these things! I was thinking of building one with a belt drive, but your ideas are better!
