    Being organized is the key and you really have your system down to a portable science.. Good job, Jeff..!

  • @redneck048
    @redneck048 11 років тому +1

    I never thought about using a portable work table until I watched your video. The drain is a great idea as well and I will definitely be adding that to my tub. I normally carry 20 gallons of water with me but that will increase to at least 50 gallons when I get my truck on the road again....need to be prepared for emergencies in the desert. Like you said, leave that water set in the bucket and the silt will settle to the bottom and you can just keep recycling. Great video as usual.

    Hey, Doc!
    Finally put my trough together with all the fixins and tested her out...
    works fantastic!! And yer right! One 5 gallon bucket will suffice for about 40 (5 gallon) buckets per 10 gallons works perfectly.
    THANKS JEFF!!!

    Ingenius!!! Thanks Jeff for mentioning all the items needed that will make the processing for gold a success versus wasting time, energy and water. I will be referring back to this video to make sure I have everything needed as well as the steps. My kids laughed when you mentioned "Don't forget to put the plug in the tub!"

  • @bigdearmond
    @bigdearmond 12 років тому +1

    Nice setup. I can see using it or something simular to classify for a sluice on a river or creek. Classifying the bank material with water is much better than doing it dry. You get every little bit that way.

    howdy jeff. me again cam from the great down under. thanks for this video. realy worked a treat. answerd most the questions i had commented on in one of the videos. and thank you for the tip on the concentrates. was watching that video also with oxa dizing and de oxedising of the concentrates. :) i still cant find a dang snuffer bottle :( they keep getting sold out. so instead of taking my gold out i just washe it into my container with all the concentrates and save save save and play play play with my pan and gold. so i cant clean it as it has fine gold in it and it hard to get the little suckers out :/. i did make a little catcher thingy out of an eye bottle. but when it tips upside down in my pocked :/ the gold fell out last time :(. yet another lesson learned.

      Well you know that Gold was discovered on the east slope of the Santa Rita Mountains so I would try the Chispa Gulch. It has good Gold and I know that there are rich areas of Bedrock but you have to dig down in some places to get to it ( up to 10 feet ) Jeff
