    Ignore those top gravels, dig down to bedrock or search the area for ancient runs of the creek (channels move over eons) that's where you will find gold in better concentrations.

    On the riffle brackets you’ll want too cut off about an 1/8 inch on the tabs, makes it easier to get them in and out, you won’t fight them anymore, lol

    Horrible contraption, water is too deep to get proper exchange, dump 5 gallons of water by pitcher,,then classify bent over down by your ankles .5mins spent running 1 shovel of material?? Absolutely horrible.. great for the seller ,not the buyer.

  • @LeeVanCleef33
    @LeeVanCleef33 2 роки тому +1

    Pouring water by hand onto a slice that has water running down it ?? This is just insanely bad.

  • @HustleMuscleGhias
    @HustleMuscleGhias Рік тому +2

    I have this same setup. I prefer to save time by placing the classifier portion under a small waterfall when possible to increase my shoveling rate and reduce the amount of watering. I've got four sections of sluice that I've clipped attached together, all of this fits into an old military style back pack, along with an entrenchment tool, a small metal pitcher, set of pans, a 6" set of classifiers, and a few odds and ends.

    Setting your classifier right on top of your sluice. Amazing idea and still keeping prospecting at a reasonable budget.

    Mat that I cut out to the same size of my
    Miners moss this new rig fills all of my
    V matting Down the sluicebox which you
    Can now see your gold spreading down
    The v matting like that miner moss
    Makes a pile in your sluicefox but now
    It flows completely down the 1 piece
    Sluice so now I have 4 for my 4 sluice
    Boxes this works wonderfully

    that looks like a pain in the bottom of classifier has to sit at least 1/2 inch in the water so one (dos) not have to pour water into it so much in watching you do that i get the strongest urge to never buy that sluice.

  • @callin09
    @callin09 Рік тому

    Not bad. But i do recomend a 1 in decline per foot. And you only want like a inch of water at the very least a half inch coming through the flare. Try using rocks to level it out. Then put a heavy rock in the middle to stabilize it so when your sifting. Try that and let me know how it works out

  • @Donaldperson7

    • @adventuretimeprospecting
      @adventuretimeprospecting  3 роки тому

      You can definitely loose gold if it shakes around too much, but gentle shaking will settle already caught gold deeper into the miners moss.

    @debiharrelson6858 3 роки тому +1

    Thanks for the video...loved it. I have a Sluice Fox which I have caught all sizes of gold with. A lot of the small gold gets caught where the flare attaches too, so you may want to remove it over the bucket as well. Also, I scrubbed mine up good before using to remove all the oil from the molded plastic. Just a suggestion, if you haven’t already.
    May there always be gold in your box!

    I fitted a classifier once, the problem I had was if the classifier touched the water, it disturbed the water in the box too much, and if I had it out of the water, when I dumped water in through the classifier it washed some of the gold out.

    James did you know you could take
    Your miners moss out of your sluicefox
    And buy some of that spray adhesive
    And glue where your miners moss was
    And buy some rubber matting on Amazon it's just like matting cut them
    Out 6x4 and spay the back with spray
    Adhesive and put them in your sluice
    Fox and put them where your miners
    Moss was at dont forget to put something heavy to keep to glue
    Together with that v matting
    Iunder your ripples will collect
    Your heavys and ALLOW the lighter
    To flow out and and to collect the
    Gold under your ripples
