Hi ya'll!
I know I posted this somewhere, but can't remember what I called it in the original post, but here is a picture of our do it yourself Grinning Reaper, that I got the idea from after seeing the Resin Reaper.
A salute to the mind conceiving the principle!
It is a relatively simple device and smaller than the Resin Reaper, but which works damn well, producing 10% primo quality kief from frozen bud in 3 to 5 minutes.
Ours was built entirely from scrap, other than the 130 micron stainless screen that cost me $6.50 sq/ft.
The vibration is from a palm sander, that had a broken sandpaper clamping system.
Like the Resin Reaper, our original prototype used Lexan for the vibratory plate but it soon cracked at the mounting holes, so we used an available piece of 3/4" Nylon sheet stock.
The Resin Reaper doesn't use a palm sander for vibration, or screw mounting holes, so I infer they don't suffer from the same issues.
We did have to add skirts to keep the material from bouncing up through he cracks between the vibrating plate and the screen, so as to keep down contamination.
I never got to have a shoot out with a Resin Reaper, but for ya'll with more time and junk lying around than money, here is a do it yourself design that works damn well for home kiefing.
The principle is also easy to copy using ones imagination and other materials.
