    If you haven't seen already , Look up PVC Ram pump . Easy to build and you can make them in different sizes , No electricity , No gas and No bucketing water and will run all day .Might be good for high bankers. Great for river sluice but may not work for all rivers . You could do a video on parts list and build.

  • @longbowshooter5291
    @longbowshooter5291 7 місяців тому

    Cris, I'm curious...have you tried spraying your sluice with soapy water before turning on the water? Air bubbles are caused by surface tension between the water and the dry surfaces, soap breaks that surface tension, especially if you are using soap in your clean up water too, so pre-spraying with soapy water *might* stop the majority of air bubbles from forming in the first place. I don't have the set-up to test this (nor the concentrates to clean), it's only a theory on my part when thinking about what causes those air bubbles.
    I'm honestly kinda curious myself if it would work. If ya give it a try please tell me if I was right.
    Always love your vids.

    Could place the black tub over the bottom of the sluice before you pick it up.
    What's the feed rate of that sluice compared to something with riffles & can the cell style run with less water than riffles?
