Yes, we all have 5 gal buckets and a lot of classifiers in different mesh sizes that perfectly fit on said buckets. However, I quickly learned to stop filling the buckets with 5 gal of material if I have to lug it from the bench to the sluice in the river about 40' away, many times that day. So, we decided to only fill it 1/2 way, makes sense. Well, I already have several 2 gallon buckets that would be a lot easier to pack in to some of the claims as well as once it's full, that's enough material and definitely a lot easier on the shoulder and back. However, I can't find any classifiers that would fit the opening of a 2 gal bucket, which is about 9" ID, unlike a 5 gal bucket which is closer to 11.5" ID. Any help in pointing me to the right direction would be appreciated.
