    Would you rather stub your toe on a house sized Lego or share this video?

      Congrats chris on the savory chunky 🐒 gold!!!! My guess was 5.5 grams. Next time dont forget the sweat pants and hand dredge! 🎉

      ​@mountianmike5588 He had the hand dredge, we call them yabby pumps, with him. Surprised that he didn't use it?

      I really don't want to stub my toe on a house sized block of Lego. That would hurt too much! I don't really have anyone else that I can share this video with. 😢

    99 buckets from Bruce's were done, 99 buckets were done. He dug in the ground, and swirled the last round, the challenge of 100 buckets is done!
    Congrats man, hard work pays off with great rewards, and we've enjoyed the hell out of the ride. Can't wait to see the big weigh up!

    Unbelievable! 🧐😮 Chris, not only did you find fantastic gold, but it was wonderful hearing you laugh heartely while doing it! An extremely successful day doesn't come along like that very often, either. As you have shown so many times, your area doesn't have coarse, thick, gold. I was so happy for you my friend! 🤩 By the way, I'm so glad that you weighed out well over my guess of 4 grams! 😳😎
    I also appreciate you showing how to use a Bataya pan again. Many people do not know how to use it or how well it catches gold. There was proof in the pudding, once again.
    Thanks for sharing this adventure with us and I hope your pans and buckets are loaded for the next round! Blessings from Alabama ❤️

    When your buckets are stuck together like that if you can grab one of the metal handles and turn it to the left and take the other handle and turn it to the right you can sometimes get them spinning enough that they'll separate.

    Chris: If you drill a hole a bit below the lip every 120 degrees and put a grommet in each of the three, when you stack the buckets they can't vacuum lock together. And congrats on completing the 100 bucket challenge, ^5!

You have a great show and your knowledge on all aspects of the field is not only impressive but also inspiring. All the other ones I have watch are not as interesting nor informative. Well done. I appreciate your help effort and insight in this field. But your inspiration is amazing. Thank you

    Hi Chris,
    I came across a few videos of people using manual hand pumps modified with 1 way valves, like the Gold-N-Sand hand pump. but instead of running them to a bucket like the gold-n-sand does, they run the rigid hose to a high banker or river sluice. It would be interesting, as long as its legal in Australia, to see how much material you could run with one of these manual hand dredge, connected to a highbanker/sluice.
