I've been running the same thing for 3 years now for my bead blasting! No problem at all and dry air which is essential! There was a video on this build posted 5 or 6 years ago that I followed. I am actually baking the beads in the oven today as they have turned orange and need to remove the moisture content and return them to the purple colour!

Clever use of a water filter. I may try that!

So how do you change the Celica beads because when you pull that canister off and refill it you go to put it back on the bees are going to go right up that tube

I really enjoyed your video. The 3/8" double male you mentioned is properly known as a pipe coupler.

What state did you guys find these in??

Why so many in S. Dakota?

Who's that tom hanks with his son?

Holy cow great video! 3 minutes in googling fossil sites wondering how many miles I need to drive. Turns out I'm living in one. Thanks man!

I hope someday you find a skeleton ❤

Geo physics technology benefitted fossil hunting in any way?

Loved your video and great music too❤🎉

I was there today. Split a hand size rock. Found a beautiful ammonite with some residual in the shell where i broke the stone open. 3 pieces, but super glue on and you have a nice display of both halves.

Do you use a Ginger Counter?

Great video, great idea's and good music!🤘

I know this is an old video but am curious about the identity of the black rock around your fossil finds b

I recently found ammonites and fossilized bones, but II dont know their origin.

Can you tell me if this is a dinosaur or prehistoric footprint on this rock I found please

Why not to reverse the flow and no need for the Brillo !???

Hey, I’m going up to Seymour for some fossil hunting real soon, are the Cradock Bone Beds open to the public? Asking because I would love to go hunting there.

I’ve found a few sites of my own. Wotton-Under-Edge has a quarry dump which is great for echinoids, and keynsham has the best ammonites I’ve yet come across.

That’s a great idea; very resourceful and inventive. I wondered why you didn’t just use a cylinder of aluminium mesh at the bottom? Because of turbulence I suspect your small holes may well create a restriction, even if their combined area is greater than 3/8”. Also, at the top, it looked as though the 3/4” pipe might well fit over the lid duct without a fitting. Either that or perhaps the fitting could do with bushing. Finally, I found myself unable to spend 22 minutes watching this without skipping forward. I found the pace to be too slow for me, excruciatingly so at times. As an exercise, why not try editing that down to a six minute video and see what you end up with? Assembly sections after explaining, if included, are often better played at a faster speed. Feedback is well intentioned. Nice job. 👍

I've been finding a ton of baculites by accident recently. Don't know why mine don't seem to have pronounced sutures like most I see?

I’ve made one of these out of A execlon 4000 clear PVC and 3” diameter PVC. But I like the idea of using an off the shelf products. So I’m making one for my airbrush booth. My only concern is getting the length of the PVC exact. There’s an O ring inside the screw on top. So both gasket and o ring must be compressed. The desiccant should be first, followed by a particulate filter and coalescing filter. You can put your pressure regulator at the end or before. But some of these filters require a minimum psi to work so I put the regulator after everything.

OK, so in through the out door, got it!

Hey i have a question that is not very common… can you make a video where i can find fossils in a small european contry of Serbia ?

*Let the Sunshine in...*

That's an easy to make interesting design, I,ll have to add one of those in. Id use a collesiong filter from tip tools before the dryer to save on the beads. Their metal water trap pipe setup is easy to make and works very well, i never even get moisture in the initial water trap.

We used to find these as kids on the red river about 30 miles up from where the lake is

Did you have a link for you manifold block, I didn't see that? Thx!

Amazing diversity! I’ve been wondering? Are the suture patterns original for the animals or a result of permineralisation?

Parasaurolophus with a pteranodon in the background and maybe a juvenile edmontosaurus.

Amazing specimens! I could sit and stare for hours

Nah I would have taken that ammonite. Also are all of these in the same location? You got mammal and ammonite stuff there

Are you sure about nanotyrannus. It’s still contentious as to whether it’s a different genus or juvinile tyrannosaurus

Nice video! It shows the parts of palaeontology not often talked about or displayed in popular media.

Talk about fun digging! We brought back almost 300 pounds of ammonites from the lake. You’re so right about the hike. 2.3 miles along the shore. Canoeing is our next trip.

A good friend of mine worked in the Texas Red Bed for his master degree in geology. He worked on the Alferd Romer Site 13, 7 miles west of Archer, Texas, on US 210.. He found a 60% complete Dimetrodon skelton and a partial Eryops skull in 1989. On the clay where he was working, he even found the tin fiol from the pack of cigarettes that Romer was smoking from 1940.

Many scientific papers on new fossil and specimens have the location details on the find. Many even have detailed maps. Just look up different fossil species names on google and then scroll down the various references. Many of these references are online if you really expand your search using the authors name and date as well. Some sites are destroyed, so they may no longer produce fossils and may even be under buildings once the fossils were exhausted.

Wow awesome finds!

Hı.Thanks.It was very help full .

How is this going? Still working good?

Another question: In rejuvenating my silica gel, which is better: The vacuum chamber, or the oven? If the vacuum is fine, I need only to draw that in the housing, and need not even remove the silica gel from it.

I like your solution. I went parallel, but instead of your cannister, I went with a 4.5" x 20" " Whole House " housing I got at Home Depot. Additionally, I discovered a re-fillable cartridge, Hydronix EC-4520W White Empty Water Filter Cartridge Durable Construction for Pre Post, Fits Standard Housings 4.5" x 20" at Amazon for $20.00, which I intend to fill with bulk silica gel beads. Now, I like your PVC solution a bit better as it directs the airflow all the way to the bottom of the column, and it has no other route than to completely pass through the entire charge of desiccant media. One question: Is the silica gel the best? There are others. And Grainger has it in bulk for cheap. Thanks! Mark

Awesome stuff. The bite marks at the end exceptional.

So when you talk about your holes - I’m a little confused . How many holes did you drill. 1/8th” drill bit ?? Thanks

My question for you - do I need to use a clear Pentex ??? I bought a blue one CHEAP !! It’s just not clear . Thanks so much for your answer

This is unreal!

The question is what are those

The problem with compressed gas is that it expands explosively when suddenly released. Water filters are designed for water under pressure. If they fail it is not a problem because the water is not compressed and the pressure is relieved instantly. Your life and health are precious. Rebuild this with a real pressure vessel.
