dpranin Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Does anybody know where I can get plans to build a small portable rock crusher? I've been sampling some quartz ore and crushing by hand, takes way to long. any ideas would be great. thanks, Dean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishing8046 Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 An easy way to make a crusher for small amounts of material is to take a sledge hammer head and match it to a steel pipe. weld a bottom on the steel pipe and a handle on the end of sledge hammer. Lift and drop 8# or 16# should do the trick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mountain momma Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 We took a fence post driver, turned it upside down and found an old steel bar that fit inside. Then pounded away. Worked great. We also got a ball mill on ebay that hooked up to our chainsaw's pulley. Makes flower out of rocks. Here is the youtube from the guy I got it from.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoTdoNEXq68Mountain Momma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
