Rattlesnake Creek Rendezvous

 — This consists of two of my normal sifters (one with 1/4" mesh screen and one with the larger and sturdier 1/2" mesh). The process is pretty basic--I place a piece of window screen material (1/20" openings on that mesh) inside the lower sifter and then stack the sifter with the 1/4" mesh on top of that.

How to Make a Shark Tooth Sifter (That Floats!)

 — This way, the sifter won't drift away with the waves as you hunt for shark teeth.

Now, you can secure the carabiner to this loop and carry the sifter as a shoulder bag. Important Notes

To Sift Or Not To Sift?

 — I recently made a 2'x 2'sifting screen out of some 1/4# wire mesh with a wood frame. It works better than I had hoped. However, after filling it about 20 times without even a piece of petrified wood I began to question the technique. I did find a dozen or so fossils on the surface of the gravel b...

 — Arcadia, Florida -- Armed with a shovel, a ¼-inch sifting screen and optimism, we launched canoes and set out on a hunting expedition, looking for things, or at least parts of things, that have been dead for millions of years.

Screens For Teeth

 — I'd recommend sterner stuff (screen door material is thin and woven: when it isn't breaking, stuff gets stuck in it); hardware cloth is heavy-duty, and can be commonly had in 1/4" mesh, and 1/8" & 3/16" with some searching.

How I made a wooden shark tooth/fossil sifter!

 — More than once I have used the probe pushed into the sand to secure the sifting screen in the flowing river by looping the parachute cord lanyard on the sifting screen over the probe's handle. This makes for easy single person sifting when your hunting partner is unavailable (or grabbing a snack in the canoe).
