[QUOTE="BJ Bates, post: 164376, member: 4282"] Hi Chris, I Looked at your rooster tail and mate that thing is going to bring all your hard work undone, I have some experience at building these things but I'm not the expert and what I will pass onto you is what I would do if it were mine. I would be put mesh with miners moss in the bottom box right down to the bread crate ...looking at what you have there is the water blasting anything that gets trapped in the expanded mesh from underneath, Another thing that helps me is the 8" to 1" rule!! For every 8inches long drop the front of the sluice 1" this is not set in stone but gives you a starting point to work off, and make sure to use a spirit level to set your levels properly. Another thing you can possibly look at doing is go away from steel mesh to Aluminium mesh....cheers.. BJ [/QUOTE]
