Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 бер 2024
- New from Gold Hog, The Z3 compact High Banker. I take this new tool through it's initial test, and give Gold Hog feedback on the unit. This video was shot 6 months ago, and that gave Gold Hog 6 months to iron out some small issues, and as of today it is available on their website. goldhog.com/products/z3-compa...

#goldpanning #thefinders #findinggold
Yesterday was my second day out gold panning after seeing how fun it looked in your vids. Ive now watched close to all of them at this point lol. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and thanks for giving me a hobby that gets me outside again!
Best of luck with your hunting and mayit brings you many many years of joy and some au
Its a good time to start prospecting with gold being at about 2178.80 even though that can always change up or down of course.
How much did you get from your second day?
@@chazwickjeffriesvonbronswi9922 i forgot my snuffer bottle but i was able to get one flour spec into an old receipt to bring home and put into the snuffer bottle for a later date lol. And i found an awesome fist sized stone that I believe was quartz (transparent whitish color) stuck under a boulder where it must have been tumbling on itself for a while because it rounded itself really cool on one side. Almost looked it was trying to become a crystal ball lol
@bobbyspain5030 most people aren't panning to make money,it's a hobby,it's fun and it's nice to get outside and spend time on the river,or creek.
Hey Dan,
Gold Hog sent you that product because they believe you are an honest person not afraid to point out warts, dysfunctional aspects and or just plain flaws with a piece of equipment.
I hope they mention you and your channel in or on their advertisements.
I for one respect you and your channel as truthful information and fun entertainment,
Thank you.
Take Care
As someone who has a high banker I love the wing nuts that installed.
No tools needed to disassemble for clean out or to break down for transportation.😊
I LOVE wingnuts 😂
You earned my sub first show many years ago!!!
A mighty good evaluation on that prototype Dan!
ALL Doc's products have done very well for me over time and all of them catch noticeably more Gold, of all sizes, than what I used in the past.
Since I match my equipment to the task and situation at hand I have, over time, brought 7 pieces of Gold Hog equipment on line in my one man Alaskan one shovel operation. I can firmly say that I wouldn't go back to any other piece of equipment I've ever used before because I trust the performance.
Oh yeah - no connection with Gold Hog other than a thoroughly satisfied customer.
Joe S, near Talkeetna, AK and Northern Idaho in the winter.
Lovely to see you again, Sir Hurd! You are the knowledge! This is what I missed from school on geology. I'm an engineer now, eternally grateful for your teaching to us all!
Thank you ever so much for your video's....I'm English so it is definitely "zed"...well apart from zee....or zzzz....welcome everyone! Haha
Miners mosh . Sounds like a Yukon rock band
"If you're inclined" lol nice one Dan
I know nothing about finding/extracting gold. But the brown paper that the gold hog was packed in makes great starter for your wood stove. 🙂
Also, cats love crinkly brown shipping paper.
Impressive! Nice job Doc and Gold Hog. And thank you Dan for going over this product. Looking forward to more videos featuring this equipment.
I was looking at this on their site and magically the first video when I opened youtube was this. I wasn't even looking for it haha. Great video as always!
Workaround! Don't dump large rocks into the Gold Hog that you already know isn't Gold! Thanks Dan!
Depending on the soil and or weather situation, larger rocks might have gold-peppered dirt sticking to them, so you do want those rocks to get cleaned by the pressured water.
On the other hand, had he left the dam in place, those larger rocks would have never even gotten near the grizzly area.
But that makes me wonder, how the manufacturer was going to deal with large rocks piling up against the dam wall.
Is this highbanker meant to deal with pre-screened dirt only?
NICE equipment Dan. Thanks for showing us. I enjoy your educational videos.
Dan i like wing nuts they work very well for a lot of uses.
Dan is would also like to see more room on water inlets as 90 or 45 degree elbows that give more room for tailings to fall! Also more room for bigger rocks to drop out farther! Great video
Wow, impressive result! I think the switchback / zig zag may help recovery due to each stop/start providing slightly more settling time at the top of each sluice. It also resets the material, enabling any tinfoil kites sailing down the sluice to get caught. I like this product Dan, thanks for sharing this test!
Always fun to watch, stay healthy. Thanks
😁👋👍👍👏👏💕🙏🏻
Thank you Dan. It looked so warm. When you were filming. I am so very ready for spring. At least 60 F would be heaven.
The 1st thing that came into my mind was Pauly when you said that expression 'wingnut'.
Just made my afternoon!!! Cheers brother!!!
Brilliant video. Looking forward in buying this. 👌🏻👍🏻👏🏻
Very good revue!! Always love your honesty
Looks like a great beach machine.
Awesome I wish I had gold hog mats so bad
'Mosh Pit', love it! Took me back some decades 😜 It's comments like this, the background music choices, the humor and the way Dan interacts with his lovely wife and friends, and his surroundings ( or is the river his best friend?😁) that makes me love this channel♥️♥️♥️
I just love this guy! I've learned so much from him
Looks like a fantastic product!
your doing great and looking good Dan!
Thank you for the review of this new product. The bars on the hopper could of been a little longer and slanted down wards to help with the tailings hitting the 2nd tray. Im very impressed on how much gold it still caught due to the size.
❤❤❤❤❤love it ,worked great. Thanks Dan for the dimo😊😊
great job on testing the gold hog! great review my friend. I'll definitely will be buying one! thanks dan.
Awesome job!!!
GOOD JOB!
Filmed in NOV 2023?!? Dang you are ahead of schedule!
Thanks Dan this was a very informative and enjoyable video keep up the great work six stars brother
Looks like a good system.
Also Dan some nozzles that you can change out for increase/ decrease the pressure running up the washout! Im impressed
They're wings nuts!
nice new toy to work with ,and we will wait for the next one.
It's ok Dan that carts wheel is only flat on one side 😂😂😂 cool video of the gold hog
I think some elbows for the water inlets would be good that way the hoses aren't in front of the area where the rocks and stuff are discharged. It looked like a lot of rocks were hitting the hose and jumping into the lower layer because of it. Maybe it's a non issue, but if a big enough rock did it, it could potentially cause more losses by disturbing the material. Idk, just a thought
Instead of wing nut I’d use flat head pin with hole put washer on the bottom so clasp pin will be tight. I did that on my 4” dredge. 😂 Guys would make fun of me said it looked like a race car hood to hold hood down! 😂 Enjoyed your video. Gold Hog reminds me of the Little John back in the day (wood)
It helps to read the directions. When assembling new toys
good luck with your new gold hog highbanker Dan
I have been waiting for this for a few years...
You do awesome work ! Thanks for getting me into gold panning! I’m in Edmonton Alberta where we find flour gold
Take it to the MIne!!!!! Good job Gold Hog!
Amazing very good, good lucky sir
Fantastic testing Dan wtg and it's very good
This looks so much slicker than the prototype you tested!
That was fun!!
A water hose hookup for the hopper would be nice also
Good review Dan 👍👍👍
Love Gold hog. My multisluice is great on glacial fines!
My wife and I have a Gold Hog Piglet that we love, however this one seems to be getting a little tall for long term feeding. The higher you have to lift your shovel or bucket, the sooner you'll burn out.
Drink red bull it gives you wings👍
Dan mentioned the "Height" aspect straight away. He needed excessive height for the camera angle to show everything working. In actual use the entire rig will be lower, as would be smart.
Joe S - in AK and ID
Definitely flat flitrery gold nice. Look like a nice at home recirc system to back up the on site systems
Awesome gold hog love it.
Dan,you are the greatest. Make it exciting, profitable,all round. Just fun
Unfortunately, where I live in the States those specks next to the dime are what we get. No nuggets and pickers are rare so it's about being outdoors.
We call it "Flour Gold".
That sluice is amazing to catch all that flour gold.
love a wing nut!! best screw fastener ever!
i like wingnuts and there were a few more than 20 specs in the third pan, as for the second shelf, i think you could make it a drawer with a liner to prevent leakage
Gold hog mats are still my favorite... Easy peasy
Finally got a really highbanker eh! Nice! I love gold hog!
Have you ever thought about using a multi-tool to vibrate tap the gold to the top of the pan? It’s is fantastic at cleaning my vacuum filter!
I like. I like this Hog. Looks like a double dekker. I am sure you could customize to your working experience. Extra Matt's.
Thanks for sharing your experience and stories. Regards from South Africa 🇿🇦.
Very nice gear for sure.and they had solufor any issues you had too.
i like your videos you are a very knoledgeable man and a very honest one as well its not a suprise companys send u stuff to test your a rare man in these ages, you earnt my sub long ago :)

Es una excelente maquina ya me la voy a comprar
wingnuts are awesome!
I run gold hog mats in my converted a-52 and I switched to all wing nuts 2 years ago because it's easier to remove the mats on the river. I put the wing nut in a pan so I don't lose it. I also bring extras with me, just in case. lol
Maybe you could attach a magnet to the sluice for your wing nuts to be safe when removed.
@@menow7851 It won't work, the sluice is aluminum.
Wingnut love here! So easy to loosen, what is everyone's problem? And very nice to see this product review in your own inimitable style, Dan!
I like this setup more than the Boar Box, with this being open. I look forward to seeing the Z3 reassembled per Gold Hog. Please post a short if too long to getting to your mine?
Awesome
Greetings from the BIG SKY.
Great vid. If only gold hog was not so expensive to post to Aus, they need a distributor here
I'd get this if I was still a placer miner(now hardrock) put 100yards+ through my old Gold Hog Viper. Gold Hog mats are the real deal. Good compact highbanker, I like it.
Wingnuts rock!
Always enjoy your videos, Ha.Ha.Ha
Thanks Dan, that trickling sound from the cracked bin made me have to go, my age is showing!😊
Nice
Great video Dan. Perhaps Gold Hog can make that gap adjustable so the gap can be increased or decreased depending on the size of the rocks in the material being sluiced?
Don't forget the jet dry lol I use a 4 tub method . A while back I didn't put any Jet-Dry and I actually found a couple of flakes of gold in the fourth tub. It was very disturbing wondering how much I lost that day.
If they had expanded metal over moss in the hopper would probably help matters a lot.
do a test with the pumps one with a smooth tube of same size and the other pump with the supplied corrugated tube to see if there is any difference in flow amount
You can swap the wing nut for a cotter pin.
I LOVE WINGNUTS!!!!!! AND THIS CHANNEL!!!!!
Nice video,
I once purchased a motorcycle with no less than 10 wing nuts on it... It was the flying wingnut once i depoopulated it
❤wingnuts
HA! "if you're inclined" 5:57
Hi Dan, great channel...I just subscribed. I'm in AZ so water is hard to come by. Any idea what the water usage per yard or per ton of dirt?
I like wingnuts, Dan is the best of them all!
Sluices on top of the ready rod seems like that should allow it to compact down even smaller with the legs still in place, yes?
YOU ARE ALWAYS OUR INSPIRATION... WE KEEP FINDING.. HOPE YOU JOIN US TOO.. HAVE SOME HIMALAYAN GOLD TOO❤❤❤
Your just to cool Dan I'd like to be there
Cute looking machine. How would you compare this to something like the Gold Cube?
Hey Dan
Do have any info about Canadian rules for sluice box use( especially Ontario )
Thank you
Hey Dan. It's back to "playing in the dirt" season in Montana. Im excited to get going. What is your favorite product for recovering from your cons? Im looking at the Black Magic Pro and a couple other mini miller tables. I jave a blue bowl but I hear these other options work better. Thanks bud and get after that thur' gold.
I like wing nuts! Wing nuts are cool!
