pyrochris732 Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 So i took advantage of skylighters March sale and picked up some items, one of them being a wooden framed 10 mesh screen. I know that 2FA is a good lift particle size and ranges between 4-12 mesh, so was 10 the right size for granulating BP which is what i want to do instead of pressing and corning it?
dagabu Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 For what we do here, it would be fine. Next, get a 20, 60, 100 mesh screen.
WSM Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 A lot of folks use quarter inch hardware cloth (4 mesh) to make polverone. That might be one to consider as well. WSM
Arthur Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 (edited) Actually I'd use it as a sieve! I always use a cheese grater to granulate damp meal into BP (ish). Just damp enough to clump and it grates well, too damp and it extrudes like pasta! When it's dry sort it by sieves and what stays on 10 will do as lift what passes 10 is lift for small shells.

moondogman Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 I orderd the screen set from skylighter. I guess the promotion worked for them. Steve
