Adding a shelf to a barrel steamer
    #27355469 - 06/19/21 04:56 PM (2 years, 7 months ago)

I was getting tired of the super compacted blocks from the bottom of my barrel steamer and added a shelf. It's one of the 130 gallon steamers so it was really bad because there's so many layers. It's not as big an issue with the 55gal barrel but it's still definitely way harder to shake those bottom blocks than the upper layers.

I filled my barrel half full of blocks and made some marks. Then the next time it was empty I put in 4 stainless L brackets with quarter inch bolts




I had a local metal shop cut me a 16 gauge stainless disc to correct size. I drilled a few holes for handling purposes


Does the job. Bottom blocks aren't pancakes anymore

Very cool. Even in a 55 gallon the bottom layer gets a little smashed. I like to fluff the bottom of my bags right before folding to aid in the shake.

That packing job is grade A, looks so neat and tidy.

Oh thanks. My wife is a bag folding master. She can fold them down perfectly as fast as I can put them in the barrel. Idk how she does it. I'm slow as hell
