Trommel Compost Sifter

Step 2 Remove the spokes from the rims

The fastest way is to cut them if you have some really strong wire or chain cutters. I used a really ancient fencing tool and that worked great! NOTE: You may also want to save the spokes to make plant markers.

I used tin snips, ant they worked well!

I also found free bike tire rims from a local bike co-op. They also suggested the local metal recycle business for free bike tire rims.

I got 26" rims free. (24.5" inside diameter for 77" hardware cloth minimum length)

Thanks for this well built instructable. (I always want to read this as Indestructable!)
