I guess it depends on how you look at it and maybe your material environment. Around where I'm at, there isn't a lot of big rocks, so it would work pretty fast.
I find this so satisfying. Perhaps it's the primal OCD in me or just the pleasure of taking something that's worthless, or unusable, and converting it into useful, valuable material. Like the separators at a recylcling plant. A loader dumps in a mix of everything and at the other end is five conveyors with it all in neat piles.

Rocks don’t usually fall out at the right RPM. We designed the FlipScreen to work in extreme conditions while being as simple to operate and maintain as possible with few moving parts, especially at the bucket opening where there will be a lot of stress.
Incredibly entertaining much better than anything on television. I watch everything every night in bed. Some very cool equipment Andrew has and does a Stellar job every time.
Nice looking materials now. Sure like the screener attachment ‼️ I’ve worked several crushers and screen plants over the years. Nice to see something that can get you enough material for personal “plus” applications 👍🏻👍🏻
I don't know why, but watching rocks get screened is pretty entertaining. That machine looks like it works just like it should. I see the odd big rock bouncing out, but nothing's perfect. For those of us that have no clue, it would be interesting to know how much these materials sell for / economics behind all this work. Keep it up, thanks for sharing.
Loving every minute of your videos Andrew. Would love to see you do a live Q&A. Also would love even more to see a line up of all your machinery. To be fair I've just watched you separate big rocks and small rocks and still loved it. Keep em coming Andrew. All the best.
I was screening top soil through a grizzly today, crude but effective. The cost of the Flip Screen is prohibitive, $16,500.00 you have to screen mountains of material to break even. Paul
paul bender luckily, the FlipScreen can screen mountains of material in just a few hours. That S45 will do about 82 cubic yards per hour with a 2” mesh. The biggest loader model in regular production will do over 1,358 cubic yards per hour.
4 or 5 retired guys working that flip screen, I think you could make some money. Just the gem of an idea. 1 straw boss with 3 - 4 hour shifts a day maybe. What do you guy's think? Really doesn't need to be said, another great Andrew Camarata video. Thanks AC. PS 4 minutes and 206 views. 317K subscribers. When does he hit 400K?
Nah, this is more for when you need something quick on site. Quarries can do this for much cheaper because they do it at a stupid huge scale with a tiny amount of labor cost. But you have to haul it so if it's less than a truck load then it may make sense to screen your own gravel. If you need yards and yards and yards then you're coming out ahead just buying from a quarry.
@@jasonjones6328 he shows what he is doing ''hanging out'' -computers -jetski,s -snowmobiles -quads -getting out and about in nature with his (girlfriend of that time) and dogs visiting nice and/or abandoned places. -he has hot-tub and a trampoline.. -always tinkering and adding to his stuff he actually uses.. wich is a hobby all in itself. i think that pretty much sums it up next to his hard and dedicated work. he is living the good life ,without hurting other people. maybe that is why i like this channel so much. he makes a rich nice life out of hard dedicated work, instead of mooching,stealing ,lobbying or do any other criminal stuff.
@@ConstructionMachinesChannel yup, I think it's worse than smoking in my opinion. It tends to suck when you're carrying material and all that dust is flying right at ya like when operating a backhoe or front end loader etc it's not something you notice right away but it does affect you later on in life. My father operated a backhoe for many years and when they did an x-ray on his lungs, they looked like someone who's smoked a lot of cigarettes they were all black I'm guessing from all the dust in the air on construction sites
@@johndowe7003 Did you see the video where he moves the bus and other dump bodies off the property, then burns the scrap brush and moves it around to speed up the burning? Take a look at the amount of soot and dirt on his body at 1.16.16 on this video. That's from 8 hours of burning. Imagine 30 years worth? th-cam.com/video/TpLNrAyNv2w/w-d-xo.html
@@johndowe7003 I'm a retired radiographer, and I have x-rayed tens of thousands of lungs in my time, and your fathers' condition is called silicosis or "stone-lung". Bakers get a similar condition from flour dust, and farmers the same from the dust that comes from harvesting grain.
Andrew, That was actually interesting. I’m sure it was monotonous for you though. Those will work great on your job sites. Thanks for recording, editing and posting!!
The incredible thoughts coursing through that Andrew's active mind while this work unfolds and that is probably nothing to the mathematical formulas Levi chews on while he secures the work place.
Really, has anyone out there ever seen such a young man who is so creative, intelligent, intuitive, wondrous work ethic, and just plain extremely interesting to watch??
Andrew, you remind me of my son in law - he can do almost anything he sets his mind to - like you - and a hard worker - keep it up man, will keep watching every chance I get.
Seems tedious, but you knocked it out no problem. Good stuff and awesome video! I think I probably would have just used it as fill and bought some rocks though
The great thing about Andrew , and it's something you don't always notice ..he is never lazy with changing camera positions. He is always giving you different angles. And that is a big pain in the butt for him to keep changing it ..but he does it for the sake of a good video.
The only time I know of a bucket getting damaged is when one of our Army contractor customers who use their FlipScreen to detonate UXO (antipersonnel mines) found an antitank mine that blew a whole in it. The mechanical components were not affected, so we just replaced the bucket and they got back to work.
Looks like the big rocks beat up that 3 inch screen, you might want to put a weld at each of the joints so the fabric doesn't pull apart from big rocks bashing it.
The FlipScreen doesn’t usually lose material once the operator gets a feel for how the material moves inside the bucket. Some people need more practice than others, but Andrew was pretty much an expert the first time he operated the FlipScreen. You can see he finds his groove after the first few cycles and doesn’t lose much after that.
So I checked how many subs A.C had when I watched this video. I just come straight back and his subs had increased by another 33 in that 18 minutes. Cool 😎
Looks like the RPM of the screening attachment was slightly too slow, allowing material to drop out the screen and straight out the opening when you started each screening run.
Been thinking of sorting out some screening solution, but man, that just seems like it would take an awful lot of time and Diesel to get any good amount of material.
Seems pretty efficient to me. I mean, you have to get the material on the screen anyways and with this thing you rotate a bit and you got your pile. You can even screen it directly in a truck. Any kind of that work takes time but for what it does, I think it does it pretty good. And it seems to bring better results than what ever they used before.
you folks seem to be forgetting one very important detail.... He said the initial pile when he started was "tailings", so LOTS of valuable topsoil has already been taken out of the end results that we see here. So, this demonstration isn't a true representation of how much topsoil would be produced from a random/regular scoop of dirt somewhere else on the property.
@@PatrickWagz I doubt they got rich from the topsoil. If you don't plan on making much more then 50 or 100 yards it might do ok. But I heard it cost 17K. I woild like to see it run 1/4 or 1/2 inch material.
When they built Hoover Dam, they had 4 giant plants screening 4 rock sizes. They also washed the final rocks, so no soil was still attached. Andrew is a one man Hoover Dam builder, except for the washing part. Levi stayed busy checking out all of the worksite smells. LOL. I figured this would not be an interesting video, but it was. Just the right length, too.
The FlipScreen is designed to operate with the bucket 1/3 full to allow the material to flip and fall inside the bucket, which helps to separate material and increase production.
I was wondering if the fill lip jutted out more as screen seems to be in the way when driving into pile. But then it might be in the way when it's revolving and screening ?
Andrew please allow a small piece of medical advice, from my experience. At 2:17 you try pushing in that thing, by using your foot. Believe me, this is the worst thing you can do for and with your foot, and it may cause severe physical damage after a few years. I've seen you doing it (rarely) in some other videos as well.... Some advice from an old guy, however a big fan... Regards Ralph from Belgium
That Flip Screen is a very useful attachment for someone wanting to improve their land or for a small/medium scale landscape bus. Pit run material is cheap and screening it or your own material would be a cheaper alternative to buying screened material.
Patrick Bates we have over 30 different models to fit almost any operation and most of our customers pay their FlipScreens off in a few months. Some examples of profitability: I have a customer who gets $75 per ton for his river rock With an S45, he can make $147,600 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 2” mesh. With an E30, he can make $64,800 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 2” mesh With a BL65, he can make $194,400 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 2” mesh With a WL130, he can make $423,000 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 2” mesh I have another customer who gets $25 per cubic yard for his topsoil With an S45, he can make $21,300 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 1” mesh With an E30, he can make $7,500 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 1” mesh With a BL65, he can make $28,200 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 1” mesh With a WL130, he can make $61,200 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 1” mesh

The screener needs an controllable opening - closed to stop large rocks falling out while spinning and open to allow easier loading.

I like that screener, does a good job. Turns a pile of "fill" into something usable for jobs. Nice.
Seems to toss out some of the larger rocks when turning and ends up mixing them in with the 3" and under material.
The FlipScreen doesn’t usually lose material once the operator gets a feel for how the material moves inside the bucket. Some people need more practice than others, but Andrew was pretty much an expert the first time he operated the FlipScreen. You can see he finds his groove after the first few cycles and doesn’t lose much after that.
Nice piece of equipment, neat idea. Supervisor don't like all the noise and dust I see, thanks for posting yinz guys.
The spin rate needs to be faster to create enough centrifugal force to prevent the larger stones from dropping out.
Yeah, I watch it at 2x speed
There's something painfully satisfying about screening
So I checked how many subs A.C had when I watched this video. I just come straight back and his subs had increased by another 33 in that 18 minutes. Cool 😎
Watch the flip screen videos on their website. They show how to change the screen without handling it yourself. Love watching the videos. Thanks
Great video Andrew. My favorite channel. I would like to move to the catskills.
That screen/grizzly is a cool piece of machinery.
You know if the bucket had extra 10 in. of lip it would really be nice, that way you don't push the screen into the piles
GOOD IDEA FOR MODIFICATION
@@alphonsotate2982 And Andrew is the man to do it!
Yeah!!!!! Awesome. Keepem coming! Levi looks great as always. Love the Drone shots. Great!!!
Oh yeah I got the day off perfect timing
same
I lost my job....
That screening seems to work-out really well Andy.
How much time did it take to screen the first pile? Is the value generated worth the manpower cost and machine and fuel?
I saw this pop up during work. Had to watch during a conference call. Way more interesting.
I'm so early the old people saying how hard working andrew is aren't even here yet
Haha
This channel is about to explode with new people. So much good content. Thanks Andrew
Looks like the RPM of the screening attachment was slightly too slow, allowing material to drop out the screen and straight out the opening when you started each screening run.
The FlipScreen is designed to run at 24 RPM, which is the right speed to retain most material inside the bucket.
That flip screener is perfect for small jobs.
Been thinking of sorting out some screening solution, but man, that just seems like it would take an awful lot of time and Diesel to get any good amount of material.
Seems pretty efficient to me. I mean, you have to get the material on the screen anyways and with this thing you rotate a bit and you got your pile.
You can even screen it directly in a truck.
Any kind of that work takes time but for what it does, I think it does it pretty good. And it seems to bring better results than what ever they used before.
Yeah I guess, I got a 10ton wheel loader, so could take more material I guess.
@thecouchtripper They make them already. It is called a Screen plant.
you folks seem to be forgetting one very important detail....
He said the initial pile when he started was "tailings", so LOTS of valuable topsoil has already been taken out of the end results that we see here.
So, this demonstration isn't a true representation of how much topsoil would be produced from a random/regular scoop of dirt somewhere else on the property.
@@PatrickWagz I doubt they got rich from the topsoil. If you don't plan on making much more then 50 or 100 yards it might do ok. But I heard it cost 17K. I woild like to see it run 1/4 or 1/2 inch material.
I could watch you sort rocks for hours!
Good morning from West Virginia. ✌✌👍👍
Good morning Joseph from Kentucky.
Good morning from Kansas City!
@@masonl8128 Good morning.
Here in Holland its allmost evening
@@aisejongsma3042 9:32 am here.
When they built Hoover Dam, they had 4 giant plants screening 4 rock sizes. They also washed the final rocks, so no soil was still attached. Andrew is a one man Hoover Dam builder, except for the washing part. Levi stayed busy checking out all of the worksite smells. LOL. I figured this would not be an interesting video, but it was. Just the right length, too.
Yeah and it could do 500 tons per hour.
Seems like the screener doesn't allow the material to fully load the bucket.
The FlipScreen is designed to operate with the bucket 1/3 full to allow the material to flip and fall inside the bucket, which helps to separate material and increase production.
I was wondering if the fill lip jutted out more as screen seems to be in the way when driving into pile. But then it might be in the way when it's revolving and screening ?
I was thinking that it needed that opening to close after filling
This is one of my favourite channels. I could watch this content for hours.
Andrew please allow a small piece of medical advice, from my experience.
At 2:17 you try pushing in that thing, by using your foot. Believe me, this is the worst thing you can do for and with your foot, and it may cause severe physical damage after a few years.
I've seen you doing it (rarely) in some other videos as well....
Some advice from an old guy, however a big fan...

@@Hugh1966 Hammer is cheaper than a new foot or a life of pain
That Flip Screen is a very useful attachment for someone wanting to improve their land or for a small/medium scale landscape bus.
Pit run material is cheap and screening it or your own material would be a cheaper alternative to buying screened material.
Just wondering how efficient that machine is. Time to process material, verses value of final product. Profitable?
i think it depends on how much you have to screen. I have heard it cost 50k so that is pretty steep.
If you have less 100 yards. But it cost 17K
Patrick Bates we have over 30 different models to fit almost any operation and most of our customers pay their FlipScreens off in a few months.
Some examples of profitability:
I have a customer who gets $75 per ton for his river rock
With an S45, he can make $147,600 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 2” mesh.
With an E30, he can make $64,800 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 2” mesh
With a BL65, he can make $194,400 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 2” mesh
With a WL130, he can make $423,000 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 2” mesh
I have another customer who gets $25 per cubic yard for his topsoil
With an S45, he can make $21,300 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 1” mesh
With an E30, he can make $7,500 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 1” mesh
With a BL65, he can make $28,200 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 1” mesh
With a WL130, he can make $61,200 worth of saleable product in a 12-hour day with a 1” mesh
Thanks for the info.
Good to see you and Levi both having fun.
