  • Is This The Fastest Sluice Box Ever?! | Turning Gravel into Gold FAST!
    Sluice boxes are the fastest way to shift gravel for the amateur gold prospector. The only thing that slows them down is having to classify. This sluicebox by ‪@GoldRatEngineering‬ solves that problem using an inbuilt classifying system, so you can find more gold by being faster at processing your dirt.

    A trick my grandfather taught me when he learned me how to sluice is to always take the last five shovels of dirt exactly downstream from the sluice box in order to minimize the losses (if you know you have losses)...

    So Mr. Chris, after watching this and wondering why I had not done the same sooner, given the fluid bed and other sluices I have made, I was on my way to the workshop this morning when I just decided to drive to Newcastle and buy one off the shelf (product placement and demonstration works a treat!). Bought myself a nice new crevice pick/tool as well. I think I will go to Nundle now and try out my New Toys!

  • @rumpig845

    Your classifier inside the bucket would have been ideal for the tailings backlog, large overburden back at location, and consistent size at the sluice. I like the concept 😊. Nice work 👍. Cheers 🍻

    another thought is.... smaller buckets are easier to handle, and can be filled full. and you could carry more of them. so, 2 gallon buckets, grab 4 to 8 of those. equivalent to 8 or 16 gallons worth respectively. so, rather than half a 5 gallon bucket, and hard to handle (as we age) use smaller buckets, we can fill more efficiently, even unclassified (or at least minimally classified outright) then, pack in whatever number yer comfortable with moving into the field with, and go from there lol. its something i myself have considered. take one of those concrete mixer tubs, make a back pack frame out of wood or modify an existing frame to use the tub as like a classifier collection bin at the creak. then it can hold your sluice, scoops, and other stuff. and the smaller buckets too, in a nice cozy stack. anyways, i love thinking of ways to make things more efficient lol "work smarter, not harder" hehe

    What's up brother! Great video, as always. I have a question. When you first started the 100 bucket challange you were classifying all of the buckets. I noticed that you are not doing that on this video. Wouldn't that change the amout of dirt you are procecing? According to another video of yours, 1 classified bucket is equal to about 3 unclassified buckets, right? I think your count of 100 acutal buckets might be off... Stay safe out there brother.

    Chris, if you fill a 20-liter bucket half-way with screened dirt, and the rest with water, then swirl it with a paddle, will the gold migrate to the bottom, thus concentrating it in the bottom?

    • @uncletiggermclaren7592
      @uncletiggermclaren7592 Месяц назад

    now, i can imagine having a Super large aluminum flair. large enough that you can get a classifier screen on top of it without loosing flow, and screen your material on the flair. of course, one could classify in a bucket, or use your sluice based screen. but it woudl be interesting, if your screen was Under the water, rather than above it. let the water move the big rocks and only sweep it when needed. i wonder, how deep can you run a sluice before it becomes a problem. and, can you run a sluice in ultra shallow water, if you have super high flow? alas, im stuck with Only hand panning in Vermont, until they change the regulation to allow stream sluices, but, if i ever do more sluicing in the wild, and not in my shop, what would you say is the best configuration for a sluice?
