Hi, I'm new to this type of fossiking and wanting to buy some sieves. I will mostly be loooking for topaz on the beach so I'm guessing stainless steel? Any advice about what brand or type of sieve to buy would be much appreciated. Thank you

Bunnings do a plastic garden soil sieve that has a square hole mesh about 4mm and handles moulded into the rim. It is perfectly sized to fit on top of one of those flexitubs.
I use one to process volume and retain decent sized stones. The flexitube takes the weight of a loaded sieve and I can shake the sieve with it attached. If I want to save the fines, they end up in the tub and I swap for a new one when full, otherwise I empty when about 3/4 full.
