[QUOTE="Edi, post: 536023, member: 9405"] Hi everyone After reprocessing some tailings it's obvious my croc gator is loosing a bunch of fine flat gold which sux. I've put a punch plate over the grizzly which has helped quite a bit but I'm still unsatisfied. So I've ordered a gold cube dream mat (just under a foot length and width) to put on the top deck as I figure it can't hurt my retention ratios. The big questions are (1) how do I attach it? I'm loath to drill holes in plastic deck as I am the kind of bloke who flogs his gear and am worried I'll split the plastic. I am seriously considering glueing it on permanently. If I go down this path I'm keen to trim it to shape and have it right up against the grizzly leading to question (2) how do I cut it? And of course the next question is if the mat is permanently fixed how do.i clean it out? Can I just stand the sluice vertically in a bucket and splash or pour water over the mat? I'm pretty interested in opinions. I've been alluvial prospecting for several years and have recently found two separate spots that are producing really good results, glad I persisted as I was a bit despondent about my lack of success over the past few months. So for those of you not getting a lot of colour, keep sampling and dreaming. Cheers everyone [/QUOTE]
