    Sorry for the pics going away for a while. When we moved, my hosting changed and I forgot to migrate all the pics. Here is a link to an album with all of the pics from the build, and maybe a few more: Vibratory deburring machine - Imgur
    I will put them all back in with the appropriate posts as soon as I can figure out how to edit my posts.

    Sir Unabiker, you are a king worthy of a crown. Thank you for the pictures, could we humbly ask for a video of it in action?

    I will indeed proceed and build one exactly like yours, but I wonder, could i make the bowl larger? maybe fiberglass? I need to deburr some headers, do headers fit in yours? I'm interested in deburring whole wheels, is it possible in your drum size?

    Thanks again!

    Hallo all you clever guys. i have build a vibratory machine to repolish stainless steal cutlery. I have used porcelain beads but the results is'nt good enough. I would like to start a small business repolishing cutlery. How am I going the get a more shiny surface? I know that the vibrating won't remove deep scrathes but I need to let them look almost new. i think it is the polishing medium that is the proble. i have seen that they use stinless steel ball in factories and there a some websites that sell the beads claiming to give a mirror finish. I can't afford to spend mega bucks and then it doesn't work. Do any one have some advice? Thanks

    You need to invest in vibratory finishing, yes steel media although very expensive, will create a nice shine...

    Great thread, thanks Unibiker for all the info and pics. I started my own build based on yours this weekend. I'm using a horizonal air storage tank from my last shop compressor that I recently replaced with a new rotary unit. Here's my base frame minus the motor mount. For the fixed side of the tank mount I used some really stiff shock mounts.




    I turned these spring perches to fit some used Chevy valve spings, IIRC they have a ~100lb seat pressure. I may need to make some more but I'm going to start with 2 and see how that works.



    For counterweights I used some 2 1/2 X 1/2" HRS, drilled and broached for a 3/4 keyed shaft.





    The cut tank and it's bearings/shaft assembly is outside being rained on right now so I'll have to shoot some pics of that later.

    Got some time to do more work today.



    The drain is the pipe on the left side, I just cut a rectangular hole which I'll put a piece of perforated steel over on the inside of the tank and then welded a half a pipe under it for the discharge to a bucket with a sump pump.

    I also installed a chute on the end that folds down to unload media. Here's a pic showing the drain and the shute in the upright position.



    Cheers 8-)
