Mixing Tub For Use with Turbo Sift™
How to find the right size Mixing Tub?
Look for:
10 Gallon, 28 in. L x 20 in. W x 6 in. H Home Depot and Lowes both carry it in US and Canada stores, around $8 US.
Some places refer to it as “Medium” or “Small”
Another common size is 36 in. L x 24 in. W, which is too large. Usually called “Mortar Mixing Tub”.
Some hardware stores sell a slightly shorter model (26 in. L, 9 gallon) that should work fine.
The key is the 20 inches overall width.
Another way to check: measure across “peak-to-peak” should be 18-1/2”.
In UK and Europe, that’s 470mm.
