[QUOTE="AtomRat, post: 232289, member: 3111"] Mornin ozziii, some can be hard to get so find what's usable or closest to you to get. I just can't pull myself throigh buying floppy expanded mesh on ebay for the fear of damage. Just to confuse you though, some highbankers work awesome with zero classification and zero mesh / matting / carpet. Pure flat bottom alloy sluice. Give it a try sometime, riffles need to be clamped down tight so no gap under them. I'm attempting to make expanded mesh with HDPE plastics one day... I've only really seen the perforated stuff on dredges to protect the riffles but I recon its a great screen. You want the strength or height of your mesh to be as strong as the grade which flows over or through it. If its classified sands and pebbles it would be fine, if you were shovelling rocka onto it..probably get a bit lumpy bumpy and tear [/QUOTE]
