Hey Jack, this is a fantastic video and I’m gonna get that Keene 140! I appreciate your professionalism and expertise in dry washing for gold. God bless you my man! Oh, that dreaded green dot can be erased if you put it in the sun and it disappears! Just in case you didn’t know.
They call us snow birds,😁,I live in Erie county,Ohio...we have cedar point amusement park. ,big. , in the summer we get the tourist.. bless there hearts..🤗 in the winter we get piece and quiet...
25:33 Summer time is hard and each person who look for gold has a story of the heat almost finish with them, and after that learned a lesson, I see you go at morning and sunset and its good caution.
That's why I like my smartwatch. Sometimes the area can send misleading messages and the watch has an altimeter and I use it frequently to study the direction of the washes by reading the elevation changes. I believe the pitch of the grade is just like that of the drywasher. It's overkill, but what the heck. If you have it, use it.
I got the same unit but did a lot of mods. Did not like those flat Al side rails down in the riffle tray. They just add more useless stuff to the concentrates. Filled in over top with ramps using some cement mix so material is forced down to the riffles and air flow carpet. Upgraded fan and added extra removable shaker (small orbital sander). Run my material 2 to 3 times and final run the concentrates. I prefer puffer as it uses less power, can run for hours on the battery.
When dry washing is my only option in mid and late Nevada summers and most of my claim's gold is gold dust (and not much, at that), how do I improve the gold recovery from the two modern dry washers I'm currently using? There's got to be a better way.
Lower the speed of the motor. You want just enough to move the dirt down and out. Run tray flat as possible. Rule of thumb is 3” drop per foot of sluice. Judge from there. Then increase air until the dirt moves off.
Hello! I just bought a used keene 140 dry washer with a vac pac. Does anyone know if it uses 40:1 or 50:1 fuel? I didn't get a manual, and can't find one online.
I have had them and sold them off. Such a slow way to get any gold. Lol but your right on a video. Thanks. I’ll keep that in mind. I do have a little hand unit.
Great video good sir. Very informative. Thanks for the lesson I learn a lot from you. Maybe you should sell me one of those dry washers since you have so many. Lol.
Another great video Jack. I try to catch them all. Not a lot of gold here in Tx. at least not the shiny kind. I'm curious about an ultra light dry washer that is suitable for backpacking. I think it was a bellows style and seems like it was named Whippet? Not sure. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!
Whippet was a Drywasher that was introduced about six years ago in the proto type stages. I never seen any out on the market and have heard nothing since. I would of liked to get my hands on one. The Thompson is a light weight but not in production anymore. Look for used units. The only place in Texas for fine gold is the plaino river. Look for the gold bearing sign whenever your out because you just never know. It had to get in the river somehow. Thanks for watching.
@@GoldFeverAdventures Hey! Thanks for the reply!! I'll keep an eye out on used equipment. The wife and I really enjoy y'alls videos. My oldest son just bought a piece of property in Llano last year and there is a smidge of super fine flour gold that's been found very near his river property. I'm eager to do some crevicing and panning. See what's there. Thanks again for your helpful information. Y'all are amazing folks!!

Big Like 62..35min Video Full Watched With 3Beers Man0Man Jack.. Keene 140 Say What?..Where’s Your Gloves? Snow Birds Few North For The Summer..That Was The Longest Sun Rises / Sunsets Ever... HeeHawww ✨🤠✨🍺🐿 “Nice Color ⭐️”
I have never seen metal stick to static electricity. electricity flows freely in metal. haven't had any luck with metal detectors, so I thought I might try dry washing. Only way to make money with prospecting in get others interested in doing the labor and then sell them stuff.
happy father's day fam. great work fam. stay cool out their fam. GOLD SQUAD OUT!!!!
Happy Fathers Day! Good day to you my friend!
Great video..very informative to someone that hasn't dry washed yet. Thanks

Also check out the Keene 160 and 190 series ‘dustless’ drywashers, might be better than the 140S.

Love what you do on the channel very interesting and informative
Thanks for explaining the wash direction, verses the other landscape
A lot of people I know that have the 140,s extend the legs so the don’t have to clean out underneath so often
Sir!!!!!! Accuse is such a light word for the collection of equipment I have seen you present on this channel!
ive struggled reading the ground in the morristown area and your videos have helped me immensely. thank you sir
Thanks for watching and good luck in the Quest for Gold.
Great video, I love seeing that shinny. The sunrise shots were very nice. Some beautiful colors.
FANTASTIC sunrise pic
Great video Jack, that was some very helpful info on the dry washers and where to dig. Beautiful country in Az!
Thank you. I appreciate you!

Can I buy one for you
Wea

Thank you happy jack!

Hey Jack, new to this channel. Live here in Arizona as well and been thinking about giving this a try.
Good video
Not too shabby for a little run
Good ideas about degree of slant, black sand and cleanout more often. Aloha
Why does it seem like that Jack Tucker is a character on Gold Fever Adventures by John Goodman?
Great info Jack. The 140 needs a plate so the material coming out of the hopper doesn't ruin the screen, so they fixed it with the 140S model?
Large washes can be more productive, if you find a place where the bedrock comes up close to the bottom of the wash.
So you like the keen 140 and the Thompson puffer for most applications
Thanks for the advice coz im looking to buy one
Great Info Bud 😊👍💯🇺🇲
ayyyyy my names jack too!!! just subbed fam!

I think it’s 40
Jack, do you have a rock crusher? That might make for an interesting video.
I have had them and sold them off. Such a slow way to get any gold. Lol but your right on a video. Thanks. I’ll keep that in mind. I do have a little hand unit.

Great video saludos from argentina San Luis la Carolina 🚍🚍🚍🚍🚍🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶❄️❄️⛄
Where can beginners go out your way to get started? Don't want to intrude on anyone's land, but I have no idea how to avoid causing trouble yet.
Best bet is to join a local club. Get all the maps learn and met new people
My prospecting partner cant wake up before 8AM. I am currently in the market for a new one
Dare be gold in dem dar hilz, lol
How dare they acuse you of having too many dry washer's 🤠
Do you let people on your claims?
If they are club members. Yes
