AzViper Posted October 14, 2014 Author Share Posted October 14, 2014 That is a sweet trommel Hi Rick, You and others can see the entire Viper-Trom build at the link below. The build was only to take a few months, but took nearly a year due to lots of family issues and me having a new shoulder installed, then falling and breaking my knew cap off from the surgical replaced knee. The 1434 holes were drilled by hand after the the flat plate was rolled into a 12" pipe. In my signature of where the trommel is hosted are links to my other builds. Hopefully I can spend some time and get my builds hosted on Steve's Forums. Just need to spend some time and see if these forums allow HTML coding so that I can wrap text around photos.

El Dorado Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Kieth... Great job on the design and build directions. Looks to be very performance and quality orientated. Might actually have to make one for next summer''s adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 The trommel looks pretty high quality. Two winters ago I experimented with HEDP by building a highbanker for fine gold. I tried to keep most of it built out of continuous pieces. There is defiantly some stuff I would do differently. Looks like we used the same matting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
