    Vacuuming the ground would be excavating? If that's the logic, then highbanking should also be excavating. It's just water moving dirt instead of air.

    • @VoGusProspecting
      @VoGusProspecting  2 роки тому +3

      Incorect.
      It's illegal to EXCAVATE dirt with machinery. Not process it. So long as it's dug by hand you can process it any way you choose.

    • @whynotdean8966
      @whynotdean8966 2 роки тому

      ​@@VoGusProspecting I'm sure you're right, I'm just trying to understand the logic. So the tricky part is when you're taking the dirt from where it's resting, to some other place. That's the "excavation"? Like using a pump to hose loose dirt up a ramp, and into the highbanker would also be illegal? Even though it's the same pump that would hose the dirt inside the highbanker.

    • @VoGusProspecting
      @VoGusProspecting  2 роки тому +2

      Exactly.
      Its illegal to use water from a pump to wash dirt to a sluice. But it's legal to allow dirt brought to a sluice in a bucket get washed through via a pump.

      An adaptation you might want to make on your yabby pump is to make it look like a cringe by capping the bottom end and putting a pipe .5 or .3 the diameter of the main cylinder and have it come into the pump by 10-20 cm so the fine dirty /gold doesn't fall out when you lift it up to empty it in the pan before unscrewing it to clean it out every so often, the size restriction will give you a higher suction or jet of water depending on its use as well as getting to closer to smaller cracks.
