Got mine from Discount Tommy on eBay; all the parts there, I've had it close to 3 years, have been very happy with it.

I mounted my mill in a bucket and have it powered by a drill. The issue im running into is the gap is widening out as I mill the grain. I was thinking about trying locktight but was curious if anyone else ran into this problem.
Any ideas?

I cut the bottom off a bucket and drilled a hole in the side for the crank to stick out..............
Nice work...FWIW I like the single bucket approach, sometimes less is more
...my assistant brewer (my grandson) really likes to weigh the grains and run the grinder. ....
So in that case I would suggest calibrating the hopper lightly, so it will be easy for management to easily supervise the materials handling department. Just a quick visual check as you go...

It looks like the same one that Walmart has:

Yup, I got the addiction bad already. Haven't even cracked the first beer and stepping up to AG. Mr Beer is like the crack of the beer world. I got a good whiff of the Mr B and it is off to the LBS to trade dirty green paper for shiny baubels and "things". So far I have only had to trade about a hundred dirty green papers for all my junk including burner, ferment pails, air locks, hydrometers, mills, brew kettles, and the rest of the stuff, so I am getting off cheap so far.

Just thought I would add a link to discount tommy....$25 including shipping sure is cheap when cinsidering the shipping alone on something this heavy is likely 8-10 bucks.
I just crushed my first grist: more of a session ale and only a two gallon batch, so only 3 1/4 lbs. I started with it cranked down tight and turned a few times--flour. So I loosened it up an 8th turn at a time and cranked a few times around until it looked just a little finer than the precrushed gist bag I have from BMW which I was using for comparison. How's this look?
