1 Replies and 6940 Views Could you measure your dredge baffle to help me with a homemade one?  6940  1 Started by  ErikLeland@yahoo.com  Hello all! I have a 3' keene highbanker/ dredge and I would like to add a baffle. Since it did not come with one originally I am curious what material is usually used for baffles I am thinking of using a 1/4' EPDM rubber mat but I am curious how thick the mats that generally come with dredges are. If someone with a stock baffle could measure the thickness I would appreciate it. Thanks!

6 Replies and 30297 Views Miners moss VS Carpet?  30297  6 Started by  cowboybrj81@gmail.com I have a 3' gold king dredge/highbanker combo and need to replace the carpet.  I was wondering which is better since I need to buy new matting, I was thinking of going with gold hog matting.  Also when switching from carpet to miners moss do you need to do any modifications to the riffles  Just looking at it I dont see how the moss will fit as it seems much thicker than carpet.  Just looking for some input! Thanks! Ben J.
