Shaker table build

[Jim in Idaho]

Finally got the table done. Actually, it's been done for several weeks, but the drive unit has been tough. Tried several different types, but finally settled on this unit in the video. Obviously, it works good. I'm going to build these to order, if anybody is interested. Probably be in the $225.00 range, without the motor. I noticed that CA Sluicebox has now offered and ABS table surface that can be glued to a sheet of plywood for rigidity. Priced at $200. Shaker tables are expensive, but it's getting possible to build one for less than $800, even without owning a machine shop...LOL Here's a link to the video:

A great video as always. One can clearly see the 300 mesh tungsten cleanly separating out toward the end of the video.
This is why shaker tables are a step above everything else out there. More importantly one can build one of this things a heck of a lot cheaper than store bought model.
