    Lmao found like 52 errors your doing
    Shoveling below the highbanker is #1
    Doing in November
    The highbanker is garbage
    Your putting your shovel into the highbanker
    There's just so many things you are doing wrong it's ridiculous, you talking about don't do this if you don't have the finances meanwhile you have $100 highbanker lol

      What’s wrong with shoveling below highbanker
      What’s wrong with working in November. It’s Canada it’s winter up here half the year. We work in winter up here.
      It’s a high banker that he built that he’s testing.
      What’s wrong with putting his shovel into the high banker.
      None of your 52 points which were actually 4 points do I agree with. Literally zero. Man that was seriously pathetic hating

    Stainless mesh is just great! You can tug weld it if it starts to come apart! I use to work at a been jerked plant and we used 4x4 shears we used to put beef jerky in the screen to dry the meat in the dryer and they would bang around and I would have to rig weld the mesh back together! That material is great for a sluice!

      @@UtmostOutdoors Sound good! I'm down in the USA, hopefully you can get a distributor down here! It would be cool if your spacings allowed for changing to dream mat or Gold Hog mats, since thats what everyone wants to run, that would give customers an option. Again, amazing design, I'd been planning to make something similar for myself, but what you've done is better!

    • @UtmostOutdoors
      @UtmostOutdoors  2 місяці тому

      I'll keep that in mind about mat options. It's tricky as the expanded metal is the thing that holds the matting, so other recovery options would need a separate retaining method. I'll think on this...
      I chose moss because my local fine gold is particularly difficult to capture, I can see about 70% retention in 3ft of Dream mat mini mat, with huge scouring losses when you take shoveling breaks, or 90% retention in the same length of moss without losses during breaks. In combination with hopper recovery this allows me to run without an extention, which is very convenient.
      In areas with easier gold, the rubber matting options would be perfectly fine, and the box could be run as a single level in easier gold, so a matt swap could be nice for that... but I guess I just made this for my local gold for now.
      Thanks again for the suggestion, like I said, I'll look into it.

    • @UtmostOutdoors
      @UtmostOutdoors  10 місяців тому

      Hey, thanks for watching my video! The quick connects for the hose are called camlocks. They can be found at a store like princess auto, a dedicated hose supplier, or even online. I have used the aluminum ones as well as these plastic ones for years, and I've never had one break yet. I was given the advice that the plastic ones remain easier to use over time as the aluminum ones can become a bit tighter over time as a layer of oxides form. Good luck with your build, I hope you learned something here.

    • @UtmostOutdoors
      @UtmostOutdoors  10 місяців тому +1

      This highbanker was specifically designed to capture fine flour gold. Normal fine gold can be captured pretty easily in comparison and would not justify the need for the double level sluice, but this was built to have the recovery of a beach box and keep a high percentage of ultra fine flat gold while still processing gravels in the hopper. If you ran this box with beach sand that had a high black sand percentage, you would need to feed it slower than you see me shoveling in some of my other videos, but it would do an excellent job on beach gold. Check out some of my other videos from this summer's testing and see what you think.
