If you have stony soil and want to sieve it without the back

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.

Fair enough. I choose to do it my way

Sorry to have bothered to pass on the info.

Don't let them get you down Bob. We all need a few toys in the
garden, they make life more interesting. Me, when I need one I
shall probably make something like this.
