I designed this to sift and get more life out of the cat litter. I use an automated cleaner but it doesn't catch everything but I'm sure you could just make a few size filters to get rid of dust.. So this is to help prolong the life of the litter.
You can always use this to classify dirt as well like for gold panning or sifting through soil to get out rocks and suck. Just ajust filter for disired particle size your after and badda bing!
Use for bucket size opening of between 6"-8" diameter.
Print top and bottom with 3 walls
use test file print with 0 top layers 0 bottom layers, 3 walls. And go for a hex infill at about 17-25% infill. Let clean litter pass through it as desired on filter mesh size. Size is up to you. Do some experimenting. This will work for dirt too.
Look at assembly pic... glue, or plastic weld together.
Make a few, make allot.

Normal PLA/ABS Setting for your system..
.2-.3mm layers
filter plate needs 3 walls and zero upper and lower layers. Infill is as you desire for dirty matter to stay on top and clean-ish material to pass though....
Printing the top will require suppor for where the filter will sit.
