Pictures of Preparing Sand

Sifting the "chunks" out of sand.

Washing sand: A bucket is filled with sand about 1/3 of the way. Then a hose connected to a water source is put in the bucket. The bucket is filled with water and is manually agitated. The silt, dirt, grime and other light weight contaminates float to the top and are washed out. The sand is clean when the water runs clear.
