[QUOTE="Caesar, post: 496454, member: 12642"] Just found this thread so thought I'd contribute. I bought the Gold Rat 6" backpacker sluice last year and thought it was the best purchase I'd ever made. We had lots of outings together, discovered some new creeks and found some gold. It was a magic time. In fact, I think the missus started to get jealous... I've since added some legs, made a header box from PVC (yes, PVC), and bought a 1100gph pump and a 20AH 12V battery to convert it into a powered sluice. Surely life couldn't get any better. Then I discovered the hopper option to turn my already customised beast into a fully fledged highbanker. A few bunches of flowers later and I got purchasing approval from the missus. I gave my new unit a run last weekend and I was like a kid with a new bike. And a shovel. I must have put over 100 shovels through it in a couple of hours. I didn't find heaps of colour - but that wasn't the point. The mini highbanker took everything I threw at her and she didn't skip a beat. From sluice to highbanker in a year. What a great journey.
