Great video and great advice for someone like me that has little knowledge or money.. but I am Handy with working with materials and how to build stuff out of stuff people throw away. 😎
Thank you for this. I haven't gone out because I'm afraid people will make fun of me. Now that I see you just do it in your garage or whatnot I think I will head on out and say screw what others have to say. This looks fun.
Dont worry about what people say just have fun with it ....first couple of times i took my metal detector i felt like everyone was always watching you get use to it but if you enjoy it just have good time
i tried the "gutter sluice" last year and found out that i couldnt use it for longer than a buckets worth. because the black plastic wears down and i would begin to get little black pieces of debris in my results. so i changed over to an aluminum dryer exhaust tube.
I found some corregated tubing and am now going to make my gutter sluice! I found 4" and 8" tubing... I've been busy designing an RC boat that uses my bildge pump to move around the lake n streams. Homemade sluices are great projects... LOL a boat... I should be finding the gold, but I couldn't resist.
Yeah I need to get me some mat to try. I'm running off of a mower battery now. I'll always have my car battery for the field. A jump box would work good as well... Unless you have a solar panel to send my way! Thanks for watching
hey got a couple suggestions 1 ever try a flat drain pipe works great alot more wash area. 2.you use two round pipes like yours side by side as well... cheap fun
thanx heaps Bryan i spotted something similar at bunnings last night and was wondering if it would work. After watchin this i believe it will work just fine… Im just wondering how you seperate the fine from the concentrate? Im just starting out and need the cheapest way to seperate fines???
If you like these types of sluices, you must head over to my channel for a sec, and check out the progress of my double barrel all i one gold class sluice. Use it in the creek, in a recirculating setup, as a top deck classifier that runs into another sluice, take out the classifying screen, and it becomes a clean up sluice after initial cleanup. Add vibration and it sends gold to the bottom, use bigger corrugated tubing that have deeper riffles, put them side by side with a feeder. Move material fast, get more concentrates, forget time consuming traditional cleanups with having to remove riffles, screen, and moss.
There is a guy on here that makes all sorts of slingshots including some multi fire ones. All you need is a knife and some sand paper. I use theraband gold for rubber and purchase my pouches. Slingshots can pack a wallop.
That's a spot on idea I would of thought of that .. but I'm so intrested in prospecting but have know idea what to do yet , would love to ask some questions if that's ok .. regards from Scotland
How efficient would you say that is compared to a regular sluice?? Is there a specific size for this? Or for the riffles?? Could i et any size gutter sluice? I wanna make one
Just about any angle will work . I have had them at a pretty steep one . Think the steeper the better. I also found that the 6 " was the best . And if you have any color farther down than maybe 8 " slow the water down a tad .
Also tried a vibrator 8:09 from a recliner . A little harsh . A bat powered one from one of the first white ones worked the best . Worked great ! They are just slow . so plan on some time to a 5 gal bucket . Had mine 3' long They are worth the time to make one . I just happened to see a farmer I knew and ask if I could cut one of his drain pipes in half . So mine was free. Lol used the 3 " deck screw in three places one each side to hold it on the board . Foud that was better then right in the middle. Hope all gobbledygook makes sense to everyone . Lmmo
Your pump ever get clogged up? That's the main thing that slows me down, I have it recycling into a square tub, and in the middle I have a screen where the pump is on the other side. But then material starts to jamb up on the screen, there is no easy fix.
I just made a gutter Sluice , but here in wast Australia, you are not allowed to use a powered pump, only a hand driven pump or Gravity water feed. no power tool to be used for prospecting
The poop tube works great but you will find it will miss alot of small specks of gold.However,it will get 90% of the gold out fairly quickly.Great video TYVM:)
instead of using car battery get your self a 5w or a 10 watt solar pannel and a lawn mower battery or a motorcycle battery and and you can set up at camp or home and save on electric i made a cleanup sluice like the tom@perry one out of plastic gutter and some black mat work wonders i will have to do a video of it as soon as it gets back over 30F too cold to play in the water for me lol
hey cool slingshot!!! i was totally going to make those for xmas but didn't.... I use bicycle tubes for the rubber, and have leather for the rock launcher. I've been trying to build a semi automatic rock launcher for years.... =))) I think we'd make good neighbors...
Would it help to put a vibrator on the drain pipe sluice? I know they make vibrator tables and gold will move toward the vibration source. Just an idea.
He explained the reason at the beginning of the video. He lives too far from the river to be driving there everyday, so he does it in the garage with a pump.
l think l would use that slingshot to get rid of that setup toooo slow home depot 1\2 sheet of plywood few hours labour and your wife won't know sluices don't have to cost a lot.been washing rocks for thirty plus years and haven't bought one yet just saying.
I’m from GA. I’ve never liked hearing myself on camera. I’ve got a new channel “Somerton Leather” if you want to check it out. It’s been years since I’ve had the chance to dig for gold.
was a wonderful video and that's real nice too hear somebody who seems pretty humble
Great video and great advice for someone like me that has little knowledge or money.. but I am Handy with working with materials and how to build stuff out of stuff people throw away. 😎
Nice video . congrats. What is the name of the water pump what you used?
I'm glad I found you Way Cool Channel looking forward to seeing more videos 💯🍺😎👍🇺🇸⛏️🦅 Love The Vice Clamp Method 💯😆👍
What kind of water pump is this? Thanks
Thank you for this. I haven't gone out because I'm afraid people will make fun of me. Now that I see you just do it in your garage or whatnot I think I will head on out and say screw what others have to say. This looks fun.
Lisa Lynn people making for of you for finding gold?? Ya maybe but don't let the littlest things stop you from the biggest things
Dont worry about what people say just have fun with it ....first couple of times i took my metal detector i felt like everyone was always watching you get use to it but if you enjoy it just have good time

put some expanded metal in the pipe and youll have a mighty fine clean up sluice
Yeah I need to get me some mat to try. I'm running off of a mower battery now. I'll always have my car battery for the field. A jump box would work good as well... Unless you have a solar panel to send my way!
Thanks for watching
Finally , a poop tube . They are a super machine .
hey got a couple suggestions
1 ever try a flat drain pipe works great alot more wash area.
2.you use two round pipes like yours side by side as well... cheap fun

Cool video, Bryan. I hope you get into some good gold at the bottom of that bucket.
I just checked that out. I'm not sure if he is still doing the contests or not. Nothing seems to be updated in a few weeks.
You want a clean up sluce give me your email and tell me what you you are thinking
That's a spot on idea I would of thought of that .. but I'm so intrested in prospecting but have know idea what to do yet , would love to ask some questions if that's ok .. regards from Scotland

Any one from a hardware store works!! Got mine for 5$ CAD now I'm just trying to find the right angle for this thing lol
Just about any angle will work . I have had them at a pretty steep one . Think the steeper the better. I also found that the 6 " was the best . And if you have any color farther down than maybe 8 " slow the water down a tad .

Hope all gobbledygook makes sense to everyone . Lmmo
I use about double the water flow though.
thank you ,Bryan,...
Jay's DIY gold bowl. On youtube.
Yes it's not a bad option and I've got yards of it laying under my house. I'll build a drop riffle clean up sluice if I ever get the spare time.
Your radium vents are crying
I realize this was a bit ago, but I would have sprayed the inside with chalkboard paint
sorry good video too.
Your pump ever get clogged up? That's the main thing that slows me down, I have it recycling into a square tub, and in the middle I have a screen where the pump is on the other side. But then material starts to jamb up on the screen, there is no easy fix.
Excelente idea
I still have it if you are interested.
Thanks for watching!
I just made a gutter Sluice , but here in wast Australia, you are not allowed to use a powered pump, only a hand driven pump or Gravity water feed. no power tool to be used for prospecting
Not even at home?? Sounds as bad as your gun laws.
YeeeeeeeeeHaaaaaaaaa
Great video,and great idea, im going to build one .One question, would it pay to run soap in your water,cheers mike
Mike Carp There is soap running. Every little bit helps.
why don't u build a miller table 4 ur clean up?
The poop tube works great but you will find it will miss alot of small specks of gold.However,it will get 90% of the gold out fairly quickly.Great video TYVM:)
You won’t miss anything
thats prospector chris idea from paystreak tv [the plank and snail]and iv never seen him lose any gold from it
Just subscribed! Thanks!
This makes me want to start a new hobby
instead of using car battery get your self a 5w or a 10 watt solar pannel and a lawn mower battery or a motorcycle battery and and you can set up at camp or home and save on electric i made a cleanup sluice like the tom@perry one out of plastic gutter and some black mat work wonders i will have to do a video of it as soon as it gets back over 30F too cold to play in the water for me lol

Love your sling shot I'd buy on of them from you not a problem
Wonderful being married lol, the common sense half gets the better of us
only problem with this is that his angle is not really good
Finding gold is hard to beat!
Make them both and let us know how they work for you.
how much sling shot
Would it help to put a vibrator on the drain pipe sluice? I know they make vibrator tables and gold will move toward the vibration source. Just an idea.
What did you cut the pipe with?
Utility knife?
Yeah that's what I ended up using to cut mine.
Nice video.
Looks good! But why use a pump when you can just use the river nature provides for free!
He explained the reason at the beginning of the video. He lives too far from the river to be driving there everyday, so he does it in the garage with a pump.
@@shucksful well then, his methods are flawed.
Is that 4inch or 6inch hose
It was 4”.
The old Henry Henery poop tube . Been around for 25 + years or😂 more . All this new stuff not even close to tjis baby @
l think l would use that slingshot to get rid of that setup toooo slow home depot 1\2 sheet of plywood few hours labour and your wife won't know sluices don't have to cost a lot.been washing rocks for thirty plus years and haven't bought one yet just saying.
I subed - thank you
Cheers for sharing your knowledge and experience with us cheers ☠👍👍👍💙 Arrrrr and a sub from me
Get a gate valve.
Man....you could have just panned that down in a few minutes. Why go through all that hassle of making and using that thing ?
Thanks for viewing!
lol momma put her foot down
These gutter sluices are absolutely-completely-utterly USELESS for fine(flour) gold. I guarantee you will lose most- if not all of it.. Trust me
Sounds like Lindsey Graham.....
I’m from GA. I’ve never liked hearing myself on camera. I’ve got a new channel “Somerton Leather” if you want to check it out. It’s been years since I’ve had the chance to dig for gold.
U went from a ball valve to just another ball valve. Get a real dial valve
Your water is way to slow
It’s cute
Thanks for watching!
