Talisman Mfg Talisman Rotary Sieve body
The Rotary Sieve (pic 1) has a tapered, plastic body which fits firmly on any round container. Handle extension allows it to rest on extra large containers. (pic 2) Push-in screens with moulded rubber rims are interchangeable, not only with this rotary sieve body but also with the hand sieve body. Stainless steel screens are available from Bracker's in the following meshes: 40, 60, 80, and 100 mesh sizes. Screens Sold Separately. We can also special-order any of these size screens from the manufacturer: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80, 100, 120, 150 and 200. (pic 3) Either wet or dry materials can be sieved quickly. For example, dry ash can be put through a screen as fine as 100 mesh. The brush-cluster is rotated against the screen by turning the handle and the pressure required is regulated simply by pressing on the handle as it is turned. Brushes are held in a moulded plastic centre-piece sufficiently tightly to ensure that they maintain contact with the screen even if this distorts with use. Brushes have nylon bristles set in a plastic back; they won't absorb color and are easily washed. They are long-lasting, yet easily replaced. After use, the screen can be removed and the brush-cluster pushed through the bottom of the sieve for easy washing. The handle is easily removed for easier transport, or if several brush-heads are needed for different purposes - eg, for wet or dry uses. The handle runs in a graphite-impregnated nylon bearing well clear of the abrasive materials being used. When dismantled, the sieve can be sent by parcel post. It comes with clear instructions for assembling.

Laguna Laguna Lab Sieve
This sieve is a stainless steel screen permanently fused in tough, flexible polyethylene. The diameter of the screen is 6" and sets perfectly into a 3½ or 5 gallon bucket. Potters typically use a 60 or 80 mesh sieve for most standard glazes. The higher the number the finer mesh screen.
