Re: anyone got a 55 gallon barrel strainer?
just use 5 gallon paint strainer socks. You can find them at any local paint place like rona. They are about $1.25 each and easy to use, just cut the off the bottom of a 5 gallon pail and rest it on two 2x4s over your drum.after oil wrote:or want to go in on a group buy?

Hey,
I am in Nanaimo ,would love to go in on a group buy,don't know how much cheaper it would be but we could probably save on shipping.
Would be cool to meet or talk with you,I just picked up a Raw power Centerfge.(waiting for shipment)
It seems like it served you well at any rate.
A little pre-straining would be Right on!
Thanks for posting all the fun stuff during your trip!

I have a 100u drum screen and it's been working great! If an order is placed I wouldn't mind to get another one but might go for a smaller filter size. So that makes 3 of us for now. I think they are around $10 each and they are super durable.

Re: anyone got a 55 gallon barrel strainer?
Got mine through the posted link for $12 US. Quite a cheap price for what they give in return.
I'm looking into building a cold upflow system to complement my filtration system and could use a smaller 5 gallons style. So if you or afteroil is going to order them then let me know and I'll join in.
Thanks for B-day wishes! I'm now officially 2 minutes past my D-day...

Re: anyone got a 55 gallon barrel strainer?
looks like you are more on the ball for this than me.. im still running around catching up on stuff (like setting up the raw power centrifuge and buying new cars)Luna-Sea wrote:Hey,Yups they are skookum,but seem to between 12 and 16 (yankee bux)I think they are around $10 each and they are super durable.

so if its okay with you, ill hand this project over..
id like at least one, but maybe two (how many in a "package"?) 100u or bigger, even 200u would suffice im sure as a centrifuge pre filter...
i come through nanaimo often enough. ill pick it up sometime when im there.
is this okay with you luna-sea?
