I'm building my own hibanker and am going to head somewhere near tooloom in northen nsw.
First I want to say hi, I have been reading lots of posts and it's great to see a nice community.
Please keep in mind I'm building light because it all must be strapped to my back as I ride a motorbike and I'm trying to spend less than 400 bucks..
Ok first the highbanker, the top box is folded alloy 1.6ml @ 1meter by 30cm with a boiler box and couple of large rifles with a classing screen. Sluice is two 1 meter by 30 cm boxes end to end.
I guess my question is on water flow and rifle/carpet.
The trays are light about 3kgs total. Each slightly smaller than the last as to fit inside each other for travel.
I need to keep trays clear and all carpet / rifles legs, hoses and boiler sides packable.
I have a 7kg dirty water pump max215lpm but I'm sure I don't need quite that much flow.. running that is a 850w 17kg petrol generator.
Some advice on combinations of water flow and sluce setup would be awesome.
Tooloom. It's a 2h45m ride as I'm on the gold coast. So most weekends I'll be finding somwere to sleep. Has anyone any advice on tooloom maybe some nice places to start I would love to meet up with any one over that way some time to move some earth or just friendly advise.
My sluce should be finished in around three weeks.
Thanks all
Luke.
