[Heatho]

Certainly looks good, hope it works well for you. Will be great to see the results.

 

[Nugget]

Looks great makes me want to get my ass into gear and do one..

The pump is my draw back, not sure where or what id be looking for and how much they cost?

Was yours 2nd hand for $100? Or is that all they cost new? ( I obviously have no idea )

 

[ChrisM]

Very nice Balx.
Is that ribbed matting on the top section of the lower box ?
Hope you get to fill it with gold very soon.
Cheers
Chris

Brand new mate including delivery, just got to watch the Ebay auctions section, I think you can buy it now for around $150, BUT its a heavy bugger, can lug it down with one hand it gets the lactic acid flowing pretty quick though.

Yes mate I had experimented with my power sluice with and without it didnt make much difference so I went with it. I like to see those sparkles as I go.

Cheers balx, just sussed out ebay and there way another one 6.5hp for $180 and is 5kg lighter....

Time to write down a shopping list and parts list I think before the weather starts to warm up

Always thought the pumps cost more than that so never really read up on it

Great looking build there Balx, looks like the real goods mate, and now it only needs to get onto the stream. Best of luck on the gold and look forward to the action pics.

Cheers Wal,

 

[Braddo]

Nice looking setup Balx there might be one little problem with the way
your grizzlys are set in the top box shivan has the same setup in his
highbanker and had a problem with water running off the back of the top box.
Just a thought that might help...
Cheers GR...

Great build Balxy, like the others, I do hope it works as good as it looks! Can I ask the diameter of the legs?
