Power Sluice Conversion

[DigginForGold]

Decided to convert my AM Grubbstake into a power sluice for times when I dont want to carry the highbanker into some more remote locations. Pretty simple and quick little build here, but I'm really happy with it nonetheless. With some lay flat hose and a 26ah battery I've got, I should be able to get 3-4 hours run time out of it. Taking into account digging and classifying time etc, that should get me through a whole day...all while fitting into a backpack.

gday matt, are you still running this with a spray bar?
im looking at doing something similar with a home made header box.

Yeah I am. I've used it a couple of times now. I just silicone the end back on whenever I need it that way. Its been a handy thing.

I just made myself a new header box also...and made a thread about it. I've moved away from the spray bar set up. Im yet to test it though so we'll see how it goes.
