Hey All.
Just thought I'd post some photo's of my mill that I have finally completed this weekend after languishing amongst other projects for a few months. Must say I'm pretty proud of it. It's come up nice.
60mm dia x 200 long knurled stainless rollers. Each on sealed bearings housed in seperate mounting blocks so it's fully adjustable but has no significant gaps for grain to fall through.
All held together by concieled socket headed cap screws in the aluminium extrusion housing. Input shaft is necket down to 3/8" to power by a drill at the moment (and the shaft is tapped up the guts so I can fit the hand crand I made to it too) but will possibly upgrade to v belt off a motor down the track.
Next up is the hopper to be made from polycarbonate sheet in the next week or so. Have already put mounting bracket onto the frame for this to sit on.
Whatdya think guys and gals. Also what sort of volumetric capacity (not grain weight) do others find handy for the hopper size?
