This is very nice to remove the top layer of water from my slurry bucket. VERY GOOD!

I paid less on sale. Reduced my number of buckets. Slurry used to get mixed up with water when tipping to dump, not any more.

Thanks for the tip! I think this is a great idea!

I've used those cheap battery operated pumps regularly for years at work moving chemicals, but, never considered using one to siphon the water off the top of a slurry bucket.

I am now able to transfer my slurry to aluminum foil pans for evaporation and disposal much easier.

dandresow: Thanks. Haven't done anything with rocks for years. Just fixed an older HP 18 inch and dug out a 10 inch and 18in Lortone and I have a couple of trim saws and need to make something to cab with. We stay broke and I only have enough to put oil in 1 Dec 1, 2024 16:49:20 GMT -5 *
