the new govt regulations wont let you bring your kids on site with you. theyre just a bunch of clowns. your kids have to be 18 years old now and everyone has to have a fmc to be there. can you friggn believe they wont even let a 16 year old work on your mining claim. the govt of BC has lost their marbles. 1 inch per foot on the box. id set the box grade at home and stick those bubble levels that you find on the side of campers onto the side of the sluice. then all you ever have to do is make sure the bubble says level to be at 1 inch per foot. beats eyeballing it

Looks good. I've been working on our cabin the last few years out in Likely and it's definitely a challenge juggling work and life while trying to get as many things done as one can on the "days off". Keep up the good work.

At present, its 4 years later, any bending of walls, leaks, any issues at all?

How is this faring 3 years later?

Your box is too dang steep bud. Wayyyy too steep

There is an island with an old mineshaft on it on the Fraser river close to the Rudy Johnson bridge near William's Lake.......I've panned gold there before and there is quite a few bands of black sand around that area

that was like a horror movie Once you went down there lol, very cool though

i think i have the same leh draw as you this year!

Always great when you can share an experience like this with the kids

Get them started young, Memories for ever.

Love seeing that. Hearing it, too. The sound of industry & progress. Great stuff.

A good old Eric box. More awesome knowledge gone too soon. Learned a lot watching his vids and talking to him.

Millionaires are millionaires because they never justify that kind of money.

My boy and I are heading out there at the end of June. We will be in our 12' tin boat. Good to see other folk enjoying that water without the need for a huge boat.

Wow, amazing! Where is this?

Don't be bashing the folks that live and work in the Cariboo. The only reason that road is there is because of the loggers. There are many miners that log and ranch and vice versa. We all try to be respectful of all the users on the land 👍

I don't know where you are but I feel your pain

I’d check where all those big rocks are where it flooded.

Very nice root cellar! Thanks for the peek!

Hi, do you have update ? I would like to know if you had a water issue over the past years ? Thanks !

Since theyre made to be stacked and carry load on the corners, i wonder if it makes sense to put a steal plate on top and weld square feet on the plate at each corner to keep the majority of the weight on the corners. Or run steal c channel around the top perimiter supported by feet or spacers at each corner, then cover that with sheets of steel. Then build a similar structure inside with more focus on supporting the walls for backfill pressure.. idk just thinking out loud i know the roof caving in is a big problem and if you wanted more than 18 inches of dirt on top you may need more than a wood skeleton? Any thoughts?

I here you about the double a triple standard the B.C. government has. Farmers can put roads were ever they want, even on their crown leased grazing land, no archaeological study required. Loggers wreck roads, scar up the forest, are not required to do any archaeological assessments, because West Fraser has their backs, and the right politicians in their pockets. But placer miners like us, ha, we have our butt cracks flossed regularly. Some of the rules placed on placer mining is based on illogical junk science. Take the Barkerville area for example, it's already well known that the natives did not frequent, hunt, fish, or live in that area, but yet every time some one wants to placer mine ground there, they have to do another native study. Even if that ground had a study done to it before by a prior placer operation. I was told by an elder decades ago that natives never lived in the Barkerville area because it's covered in deep snow for seven to eight months of the year. Or as he called it, Barkerville is crazy white man's country. One group of people that also grinds the gears, are the outdoor adventurers, a good percentage of them are pigs. I have a small lake that my claims encompass, and in the summer I can pull a bag of garbage out every week. Love the shower set up. Cheers.

Are you still chasing gold? Hope you are. Im on Lee Hendrix gold channel now. Hope you and your family are safe.

You should have turned the container UPSIDE DOWN and then weld on the top (which is originally the floor) quarter inch plates. EVERY container's bearing capacity is on the FLOOR, not the ceiling. But you must reinforce first from inside with beams, then turn it upside down and weld plates to the roof from OUTSIDE to make it water proof. Plus,additional things. That ceiling will COLLAPSE with 1 foot dirt too. It is a casket basically because the weight bearing capacity is on the floor, not the roof. Anyways....

Nice video, greetings from Norway 🇧🇻

shouldn't the intake air be lower than the exhaust? How is the convection?

Get rid of the fumes frim the latern!!

Where are u at?? Then i know not to move there!!

How do.u change the battery.?

Does this machine have a pull start hidden under the side panels ?

Welcome to the NDP run country,, it was much different in the 60s when we had the conservative running B.C. Glad to see somebody out enjoying and respecting the outdoors I was raised in the Caribou trapping and mining for almost 70 years Keep up the good work

I wonder why more people don't use a steep grizzly like you have here. It's a much better design for auto-clearing the material.

If they try to make you pay for their excevation then just tell them: either you work it and they pay for it or! You dont work it, move on and they can still payvfor their excavation but with less drama

You want the float gold (flour)on sand bars. Prospecting them to find the streaks of pay . Shovel wide trenches 2-3inches deep perpendicular to the flow of the river . . If you find a bit of a streak go up or down stream for a few yards do the same thing to pin point the streak . do not move your gear till you pin point a streak to dig. Flour gold does not like fast deep water in your sluice box . On the NSR you don't set up unless you have a 150 colors or more to the pan . My sluice has a wool blanket in it to catch the flour gold 95% efficient ua-cam.com/video/mcl49rxf2qY/v-deo.html

yea that always sucks when people leave things like that .. my claim in the caribou was jumped a few years back and im still trying to get the old equipment and garbage out of there. glad to see you out there enjoying yourself though

This is super rad. Ty so much for making the videos. I want to build a wine cellar using this idea and I’m in northern Oregon. Not worrying about freezing much, more so the amount of rain we get but looks like you have been dry? My only question is what would you say the average temperature is during the warmer months? Hoping to be around 58-60 degrees F for the wine. Many thanks and again just awesome. If you don’t mind can I also ask what the total ballpark cost was? 🙏🙏

Nice to have a little sawmill.and the logs on your own property.

Why don’t you show the good stuff like dropping it in or excavating the hole?

Did you ever get any water issues through the floor?

Hi how did your rootceller hold up, we are in Ireland and we are building a concrete block celler, I was wondering about the air vents what did you use how many did you think was necessary, I would really appreciate some advice as nobody in Ireland has really advertised they build one.

I hope there is no gas in those gas cans where you are cutting and grinding.😲 I’d hate for for those beautiful girls to be without their dad.

Sorry for the results. I'm always looking for areas that the old timers missed, unless you want yearly flour gold

Good, I want to see Part 2…!! My best friend just drew out his pole shed plans for me. Now he is planning on putting (glued & nailed together) laminated beams “directly on top of” the poles (with metal brackets) that are already augured in. I am looking for new ideas? Thank you.

Thanks for sharing

My 23 started making terrible squeak/squeal coming from the pogos. Pulled off covers,and they were never greased. Greased solved it. Like the crush ring you mentioned, it’s a little disturbing these things come out of the factory like this. QA needs improvement.

Nice video! Just a side note, I noticed that your wife was not wearing a belt on her waders. I live in Kitimat, and know of someone killed by not wearing one. You have a beautiful family! Think about your family without mom 😢

Awesome!

Thanks for the information.

Besides the oil and gear change is there anything else that needs to be done? I just ordered a Renegade 600 ACE and will get it towards the end of 2023. I know its a trail sled, but do you have any opinions on how it does off trail? Thank you.
