First Test of the New Highbanker on the Final Gold Mining Trip of 2023.

It took until November to get the production model highbanker out on the river for an official test. We got lucky and found open access the river in November to spend a couple nights in a hot tent and test out the new gear!
I'm happy with how the highbanker turned out, and while I wish I could have put it on some richer ground for a proper battery of tests, I'm confident it's a good machine with the short bit of runtime we were able to do on this wintery trip.
These double-level fine-gold highbankers are available now on my website:
www.utmostoutdoors.com/ (prices in CAD)
Or you can email me for a direct shipping quote to wherever you are in the world.

Lmao found like 52 errors your doing Shoveling below the highbanker is #1 Doing in November The highbanker is garbage Your putting your shovel into the highbanker There's just so many things you are doing wrong it's ridiculous, you talking about don't do this if you don't have the finances meanwhile you have $100 highbanker lol

What’s wrong with shoveling below highbanker What’s wrong with working in November. It’s Canada it’s winter up here half the year. We work in winter up here. It’s a high banker that he built that he’s testing. What’s wrong with putting his shovel into the high banker. None of your 52 points which were actually 4 points do I agree with. Literally zero. Man that was seriously pathetic hating

@UtmostOutdoors 4 месяца назад

Thank you very much! I'm glad you like the design, I'm proud of how it turned out. Like I said in the video, don't buy one if you don't have the finances, but they will be available on my website when the time is right!

As high bankers go the worlds best in my opinion . You can guarantee that any classified material going over the sluice will release its gold in it's length . If logic dictates not just flour gold . Fantastic build

Stainless mesh is just great! You can tug weld it if it starts to come apart! I use to work at a been jerked plant and we used 4x4 shears we used to put beef jerky in the screen to dry the meat in the dryer and they would bang around and I would have to rig weld the mesh back together! That material is great for a sluice!

Every well thought out engineering. Nicely done ! Obviously, you've experienced a few trials to come up with a final production product. I definitely can relate to your journey, for I started producing my own machine. I really like the compact profile for transport. This could easily be shipped up to the Nome beaches. I was there last year. LOL ! Wish you the very best in sales ! Good luck prospecting !

@UtmostOutdoors 4 месяца назад

Hey thanks! Every highbanker is sold as a complete kit including legs, mats, spray bar, and even a 5 foot length of the flexible hose I'm using in the video with camlock fittings. Just connect to your own 1.5" lay flat water supply that can feed the box with 34 GPM and you're good to go!

I was thinking... The spot where your shoulder goes when you "shoulder it" Maybe you could put some kind of (rubber?) padding there? Not that it would be an issue, but a little padding goes a long way!

That's a great idea. I'll leave it to the end user to modify as they see fit, but it would make medium length trips more comfortable for sure!

@cyrilbrun8764 4 месяца назад

I was going to make a crude highbanker , but yours has my attention . Nice looking unit . I am looking for a waterline quick connection , for a hand water pump , and your hose connectors look exactly what i'm looking for . Do you know what they are called ? Thanks ! Ontario Canada (where its real hard to find stream or beach gold )

@UtmostOutdoors 4 месяца назад

Hey, thanks for watching my video! The quick connects for the hose are called camlocks. They can be found at a store like princess auto, a dedicated hose supplier, or even online. I have used the aluminum ones as well as these plastic ones for years, and I've never had one break yet. I was given the advice that the plastic ones remain easier to use over time as the aluminum ones can become a bit tighter over time as a layer of oxides form. Good luck with your build, I hope you learned something here.

@cyrilbrun8764 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the info. Appreciated ! ! I've been watching quite a few highbanking and sluice vids & i'm told i got gold fever hahaha . Will your new highbanker capture a high percentage of flour gold , or is it meant mostly for gravels and not beach sand . @@UtmostOutdoors

@UtmostOutdoors 4 месяца назад

This highbanker was specifically designed to capture fine flour gold. Normal fine gold can be captured pretty easily in comparison and would not justify the need for the double level sluice, but this was built to have the recovery of a beach box and keep a high percentage of ultra fine flat gold while still processing gravels in the hopper. If you ran this box with beach sand that had a high black sand percentage, you would need to feed it slower than you see me shoveling in some of my other videos, but it would do an excellent job on beach gold. Check out some of my other videos from this summer's testing and see what you think.

I’ve been following this for a while. Do you think you will be able to ship it to the UK?

@UtmostOutdoors 4 месяца назад

I can definitely ship to the UK. But depending on what part of the UK the shipping can vary quite a lot. I think it's around $350 Cad to ship to Germany which would be a total of about $1600 Euro total for a delivered highbanker.

@goldsluicetinkerer 4 месяца назад

If it were me , I would have set up in a place that has gold. Lack of gold in a cleanup is not a good look or good sales pitch. Honesty is a great virtue , but words are no replacement for visual. Your followers know very well the capabilities of your unit.

@UtmostOutdoors 4 месяца назад

I'm just happy I was able to get the boat in the water and dig ANYTHING that time of year... The highbankers just took too much time to perfect to do a trip any earlier in the year.
