This was at a garage sale today and is something i never seen before.
I was told they called it a winara or winera or something similar.
A very interesting piece of old equipment.
It has a hopper up the top , a big sluice set up and possible a shaker system in the middle of it and what looks like a trommel on one end with big pulleys on the outside to run it off an engine.
How old would it be ? Gold rush era ,perhaps ?
