Fixing trails with tailings from the homemade dirt screen

- Today I run some material through the homemade dirt screen and get some nice rock separated from the rest of the dirt. I then use that rock to fill in some ruts in trails using the Kioti ck3510 and the titan 6 ft box blade. Music written and performed by Josh Hovis

Pretty cool screener! Like it!
Thanks My Wild Kioti Adventures!
Like what your doing, I need a setup like yours. What I missing is a screener. I have everything but the screener.
Thanks! Yes the screener has come in very handy. Not too hard to build and not that much money in material for the work you can get done with one! Thanks for checking it out and for the comment
Nice rig! have you tried it with rooty, stumpy soil? I have large mounds of grubbed earth on our property that is 100% top soil but it is littered with branches, roots, and small stumps. I wonder if this would be efficient in sifting these out?
I have run some soil with roots in it and it does get clogged up. But if you're patient, run it through slowly and the earth you put through is dry I'm sure it will work. You may have to clean the screen deck or dump some tailings back over it to clean the screen deck (which works well on mine). I have found through my experience with this screen, that if I run material through it, then remove the tailings pile and run it through again I get both twice as much screened soil and a cleaner pile of tailings as well. So running through twice is really effective for clean tailings. The tailings make for great fill. And working with screened soil is so much easier. I have used mine alot and I think it was well worth the couple hundred I have in it. Thanks for checking it out. Good luck!
what angle is the screen top set ?
I have this one at close to 45 degrees. It is a 6 foot deck, and it is sitting on a 4 ft long by 4 ft high stand...give or take a few inches.
@@JoshHovis Thanks for info as I am building one and like your frame style.
Nice! I hope it goes well for you. I have put alot of yards of material through mine. Well worth the money in material
Looks like you in the middle of mud season.
Yes we were
well...thats pretty rough road , but instead of tryin to level it ... just back bladed it n run over it afew time backward and stradel your tracks ....otherwise how you doin it hmmm not so great sorry lol LET IT DRY UP FIRST
Thanks for the tip but actually it worked very well. The larger cobble and rock filled in the ruts and it set up very well. I haven't had to touch it since. And from my point of view it worked even better when it was wet because everything got compacted well just from driving over it. Plus if I waited for things to dry up it would probably never get done. Thanks again
