I can get my hands on a 2 station paint shaker for free. It will shake 2 one gallon cans at a time. Does anybody have experiance using one of these as a ball mill for busting up chips? I was thinking of putting some 1/4" ball bearings in it with some chips and seeing what happens. I dont have it yet and it is big and heavy. I dont have a whole lot of chips, so it might not be worth my time. It will also most likely require me to weld up special containers so I dont beat up the junk cans.

I think it would work although it might cause a lot of noise. Input would be appreciated.

It should work. we used to put all sorts of things in paint cans and throw them in the mixer when I was a youth. rocks and toys cars does make powedered toy cars.
