    Snake Gaiters

    Dude is frigging nuts. When we go up Grabben Gullen creek there is a Red belly about every 50 metres by the water. Gives me the creeps big time lol.

    Fittings, Layflat, Suction hose for Highbankers..

    For those of you that may have trouble getting the cam lock or strainer into your rigid intake hose just boil some water in a big saucepan and hold the end of the hose in the water for a few minutes, the male ends will then slide in without resistance... Was that crude?? lol. I tried with hot...

    Water pumps, do's and donts.

    So, after quite a while i ended up buying a GX120 coupled with a Daishin pump. This should meet my requirements and is about $450 cheaper than the GXH50 and Keene scenario. Portability shouldn't be a problem given my new sluice is about 1700 long so i was not going to venture too far from my car...

    Ive just ordered some Downdraft to complete my Gold Hog collection. Has anyone used it yet and how did it perform?

    In short, to buy the GX50 + the P90 here in Aus you would be scraping $1200.... WHAT A JOKE!

    SO, thanks for the info fellas. Currently talking to Keene regarding pumps etc. I dont think the GX50 with the P90 would be enough for my 300mm wide sluice without running it at high revs. There was mention of the GX100 with the PHP160 which sounds awesome but perhaps too much water. I want to...

    HMMM, would still be pushing the 900 dollar mark all up. Don't know if its worth it yet, we kind of suck at finding gold lol.

    The p90 is $500 just for the pump, damn!

    Yeah, but the continual cleaning of the hopper is annoying. Where we generally go ie, Tuena and Oallen etc clay is not an issue either

    I haven't built it yet but it def wont be as big as that one. Imagine carrying that around hahaha. I will probably be going 300 wide to make the most of the mats by about 1500. Holy crap, 7.5hp. Mega over kill lol. It is seasonal with the water pump prices atm. Just coming out of bush fire...

    Hmm, this could be a winner http://www.akmining.biz/cart/keene-2-5hp-1-25andquot;--water-pump-kep90gh.htm I want to set up the spray the same as the Monster hog highbanker. It really demolishes the cons and practically leaves no need to tend to the material in the hopper. Just shovel non stop...

    Well, i guess Honda's aren't perfect, nothing is. But compared to the rest they could still be considered the best.

    Made in Japan or not I'm sure they have stringent controls and supervision in place. iPhones are made in China and they are about the most refined and flawless bit of gear you could hope to purchase. So pumps aren't pumps ay. Something as simple as a different pump on the same engine can make a...
