If you have stony soil and want to sieve it without the back ache and
arm ache of hand sieving, then I can thoroughly recommend the
electrically powered Scheppach RS400. I've just bought one of these
and it performs really well.


I can also imaging that it will be good for sieving any woody bits
from home compost.


Sieved soil drops out the bottom, into a barrow if you wish, and the
stones, roots etc are ejected out the end into a bucket or barrow.


I have no commercial interest in Scheppach, just a very satisfied
customer.
There is video of the thing in action he-

For that price you could go to B&Q and buy well over 5250cu ft of
multi pourpous compost, or almost 6000cu ft if you get pensioners
discount on a wednesday.
And I have no conection to the afore said firm.
