Just a slight update; entrance into the contest will end on 11/22. At that point I'm going to need to eat quite a few more oyster than Initially predicted and wait for the right conditions to run the contest. For clarity's sake, Ive attached some photos of the type machines the will a major part of the contest.The shells will enter the uplift hopper and ride down the tumbler tube to victory!
Unfortunately we use a different series of aluminum tubes for different activities at the farm. Our harvesting tube is solid aluminum spare the end for the sake of retaining as much water as possible to clean the oysters. Our sorting tube is swiss-cheesed with a series of holes to grade out the oysters by size. Obviously the ladder is much better for the sake of filming the contest, but we're about to to finish sorting oysters for the year in the next week or two (weather dependent). So I'd have to do a fair bit of craning and keeping deckhands around to keep the contest open any longer. Sorry for the last minute adjustment, but best of luck to everyone.
The contest list has been updated, let's see how many dozens of oysters I'll end up having to consume!

Two day warning to get those last minute entries in! As some enticement here's some photos of the final mock-up I'll be sending out (unless I have the time to swap out the Phillips head frame screws and obnoxiously long rva screw)
Edit: I almost forgot, she's leak free now and will come with a few replacement face seals. I haven't had the chance to Chrono it yet but it click, clacks and bloops!Last edited by Impactfour; 11-20-2024, 08:04 PM.
