  • wow, ingenius! I have a couple questions if you don't mind. At about 2:45 in the video you show the hole in the bottom of the PVC. I guess that screen on the bottom doesn't let much fall out, does it allow any trash or small stuff to filter there and if so do you put another bucket or something there to catch that waste? Also, what HP shop vac are you using? thanks!

  • @kcuhcsniknej Good day! Yes, the screen in the PVC prevents corn/pellets from falling out when the vacuum is off. When the vacuum is on, the hole acts as a siphon and pulls corn/pellets toward vacuum (nothing falls out). I checked the shop vacuum for HP rating. Anything that might tell me the rating has long been worn off...it is at least 35 years old! Thanks for your interest!

  • Hi Kntryhart, I worked yesterday on duplicating your contraption with limited success. I put a video response up on your video in order for you to see my version of your invention, hope you don't mind. Additionally, if you would watch my video and give me your suggestions, I'd gratefully appreciate. After sleeping on it, I feel that my "supply tubes are too long, In my first attempt I didn't have the hole in the tube and collapsed the bottom bucket! HA! Thanks in advance.

  • I really appreciate the reply, I have started a small popcorn operation and we are shelling with hand crank corn sheller but it leaves a lot of dust and trash. In the past I have actually shook out the cob dust with a common kitchen colander! We are going to have a much larger crop this year, but can't afford a shur kleen or similar commercial thing. This may just be the ticket! thanks again
