4 Replies and 11448 Views Royal vs Keene dry washer  11448  4 Started by  stoneman1051@aol.com   Hi all,    I'm new to this group.   I'm interested in purchasing a dry washer.   I've looked at several and have narrowed it down to the Keene 140s and the Royal of approximately the same size.   I know that everyone has their favorites, but I was hoping that the group could give me some honest incites on the pro's and con's of each.   thanks,   R.

0 Replies and 6454 Views 2 Metal Detectors  6454  0 Started by  pat2090@aol.com I have an older Garrett Treasure Ace 300 in great shape. Still works fine and body shows little wear. Would be a great one for beginners. I also have a Titan 9000 in new shape. It has never been in the field. Works great. I am asking $300 for both or I would trade for a panning machine in very good shape. I am also in need of the spiral bowl for a Gold Screw panning machine. Call or text 623-826-7629.

24 Replies and 20746 Views Need Help Choosing Metal Detector  20746  24 Started by  trevor@ttallman.com
(Topic has multiple pages1 2 )
So new to metal detecting but have been doing research for the last 2 months. I understand you need to buy a detector based on what your hunting, but I was hoping someone could give me first hand advice on a detector setup that is good at prospecting for gold, (in CA deserts mostly) as well as beach combing for jewelry etc.   Anyone have any ideas  Was bouncing between Garrett AT Gold or Minelab Safari Pro.  Both have pro's and cons...   Anyone have any suggestions Any...

5 Replies and 5862 Views leaking dredge floats  5862  5 Started by  nodnorthewise@gmail.com Hello,  I have a pair of the older 1pc. yellow floats from a 4' dredge platform that leak. Someone in the past tried to patch them with fiberglass but they're still leaking.   I have thought about trying to seal them with elastomeric paint or membrane paint as it is also known, the rubberized paint that is used on roof tops and camper/mobile home roofs.  Has anyone ever tried this to repair floats I am open to all suggestions for inexpensive ways to seal them and...

4 Replies and 16266 Views DIY Handheld Suction dredge Help  16266  4 Started by  dsnewsom@gmail.com I have been toying with a homemade hand dredge, simalr to ones you can buy at the gold shows for about $100. I've seen lots of videos on you tube about how to make them and I have a pretty good one built. My problem, however, is that I am not getting the suction I need. I have tried using foam cut from pipe insulation and have even made my own leather cup seals. The leather cup seals have worked the best but it still isnt giving me good enough suction to use in the field.    I have a...

6 Replies and 12408 Views Kickin Donkey/ Pro-Gold quality  12408  6 Started by  s.sweat@hotmail.com Not to be a stickler but I have seen first hand some very concerning quality control issues with Kickin Donkey products. I was optimistic at first  and wanted a cascade highbanker and black magic, but after seeing 2 of my friends purchases from kicking donkey/pro-gold I have changed my mind. I went in with one buddy 3 weeks ago and he dropped almost $400 on a large sluice package and also a black magic. The black magic demo they had in shop you could see the rubber matting peeling up, con...

0 Replies and 8708 Views Angus MacKirk sluice  8708  0 Started by  djdorval@hotmail.com I just got an Angus MacKirk Outback sluice for Christmas and I can't Wait for spring so I can try it out.

I like the ease of set u...

1 Replies and 8255 Views Backpack Classifier  8255  1 Started by  whitedge@gmail.com A 35 mesh nylon bag that fits inside a 5 gal bucket. Drop a shovel full of gravel in the green bag and use the handles like a rocker sluice to work the fine gold out into the water in the bucket. Set the bag aside and check with a metal detector for flakes. No signal then discard and repeat. Very effective, inexpensive, lightweight and super strong. Good for holding smaller item like snuffer bottles, etc. I have never tried as a 'dry' classifier so I do not know if it would work in the desert. A...
