How I Made a $250 Tool for $50 | Home Made Gold Miller Table 

Bellissimo 🤌🤌🤌

Chris, this is one of the best videos you've made. And you're saving a lot of people a lot of money in the balance!! Good job, mate!

It looks fantastic and easy to make and use I love hope u use it more on your channel because it is more satisfying to use something u have made then brought. Well done 👏👌😀

Hey Chris if you put wax from a candle on your deemed disc it will cut through like a hot knife in butter

I live in a city away from prospecting sites so live vicariously through your videos. Love them all mate u do a great job

Hey Chris , you need to get a step drillbit for drilling plastic, they don't grab and split the plastic or perspex.

Howdy partner! Fully caught on the changed up video style! Good to see your up and running again mentally. Its adapting good to the new algorithm. Wish there was gold here in Oklahoma USA. I don't prospect and I've learned everything from Australia gold hunters. .. 😅

When watching you use your Miller table previously, I was secretly sussing out how to make one for myself and now you have made it even easier to build one! Thanks Chris! This will make an excellent video to add to your Prospecting On The Cheap play list. Mark from Melbourne Australia Uncle Mark pats for Fern 😊

Inspirational Chris! Nice one!

When using contact type cement like with what you are doing just put it on the metal then place the metal where it goes and move it back and forth slightly then it will spread the glue onto both surfaces equally. Lift the metal off let dry and the apply pieces together

Nothing more satisfying than making something yourself, especially when it turns out so well 👍

Absolutely fantastic work and now it's my turn

Just seen this 😅 A week ago pick up a miller table O well 😂

If you want to use a metal tray without holes on the sides, try a cookie sheet.

Talk to Jason, and I think it’s time for your version of a shaker table lol it will be epic I bet. I like this quick and easy kinda stuff for beginners

Enjoyed the video nice little table and it works ⚒️🇺🇸🕳️⛏️

Excellent build Chris! I made a shaker classifier that can be used for dry or wet classification. It's all about making prospecting more efficient and easier to clean up.

It was a pleasure to meet you and fern today mate! I would have loved to have stopped and had a yarn with you. Have a few questions I'm curious about. Hopefully I will run into you again soon... 👍👍👍 love ya work mate.

Oh yeah, excellent build. Now that is what being a RU-vid creator is all about. Being creative and making content different from anybody else's. Awesome video Chris. Thank you very much.

Evenflow? Now I’m craving some Pearl Jam!

Yeah that was cool man! 🤟🤟

Outstanding. It's easy, cheap, and works. If only prospecting would always follow that method.

Dam Chris that's a hard flex bro I'm actually jelly seeing those pumps and tubs

Well that’s all fine and dandy and not bad for $50. And after very much thought and consideration I can only find one thing wrong with it…….. yup you guessed it THIS SHOULD BE ON SPUD ENGINEERING TO…. 😂😂😂 pretty cool most of the stuff we prospectors build is because we don’t want to spend money but usually we have to see and use something first to understand the principles behind it. Do you think you could have built one without having used one first?? Just curious. Nicely done chris thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼p.s. I get cons but figured out a way to pan them clean and it’s pretty fast (I’ve never used a Miller table so not sure if it’s faster than one)

Great job Chris. You could add a small electric motor with a offset weight for vibration.

And off to Bunnings we go…

Love it, super star. I do find that after seeing all the folk online and all their gear I get a bit disheartened. Logically I know I can do all the things with a pan and a sieve and the goal is to have fun, but I still get a bit green eyed. After looking at your mega sluice I've been thinking of trying to reverse engineer a little hand dredge from a bike pump, yes I could do the PVC version but there as so many bits!

Haha. Look at you, might make a tradie out of you yet. Nice job. I might have to give this a go. How did the V mat go? Catch too much black sands or was it ok?

Brilliant and perfect, the best thing is you made it, it was the right price and it works. It looks like a nice project for the weekend, I'm off to the hardware and junk store. Thanks Chris for the idea I might now be able to get my cons sorted out. Keep digging.

Awesome video Chris! This is a project that the vast majority of your subscribers will be able to complete if they want. You did a great job breaking down the supplies required, build process, and your thoughts along the way. The results speak for themselves. Well done!

Great build Chris! Some 1000 grit wet dry sand paper might be a good surface too.

you could heat up a bit of metal and poke holes through the tray if u dont want to use glue

Nice job! This is a great project for me as I am a 100% disabled vet and look for easy projects to keep me busy. What brand and GPH pump would you recommend for this build? Thanks for posting this!

"Vogus Bogus Miller Table"!😊

Great job Chris, the way to drill plastic so it doesn’t crack is to put masking tape both sides and support on a block of scrap wood. To line up the holes exactly put the drill shank through as a guide.

That's awesome on all accounts!!

Keep up these awesome DIY videos, if not to educate on building stuff on a budget, but to do it because you can and to prove you don't need big bucks to go prospecting

Awsome effort man. And to think you waited sooooo long to afford to buy your 1st one

love these kinds of videos of you experimenting and seeing different ways to recover gold

I enjoy your ingenuity.

Mega miller table????

Patiently waiting for the part where you install the adult personal toy

Do a blue bowl next!

You should manufacture these! 😊 yah know, in your spare time! 😅 incredible video Chris!!

Pretty cool might hav to try making 1 for myself allways wanted 1 since i seen urs. 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚒️

Liked, shared and commented. Love the diy builds.🍻🤴🏻 11:55

So how about the Miller table you sanded? Any performance difference? And... there's a crack "Where the rubber meets the road", er... plastic. Gonna lose a lot... well maybe a tiny bit... there. A bead of glue?

What's up Bro!!! Great video, I will be shopping for supplies after work today.. LOL

Love the way you think outside the box. Great job Chris. Thanks for sharing

@Vo-Gus Prospecting, i tried to buy a miller table for 250 Australian doll hairs but the bloke at the shop said “they may have came for an aussie girls doll, BUT the doll was made in china” so he wouldnt take em 😜😆😂

He wasnt kidding, hes doing all the things to go viral. 1. Instructional video where sarcasm is the main goal! The product second! 2. Do things where people want to give their opinion on how you could better build what youre building. Example the sand paper tecnjques , cement etc And ofcourse, me typing this!😂 😂😂 Good job bro! Love ya! " secretly I have watched all your videos!

Success at last success success 😮im saying that word and it kept saying sex sex sex sex😮 that's all it said so I had to type it in cuz my smartphone is it really that smart 😅 but good job I might be able to build one myself and let you know how it works you are awesome❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😮😢😊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😂

Homemade miller table! Brilliant

Quick question, what is the size of the gap for the water flow, under the aluminum dam section? Or should it be adjustable?

We don't have Bunnings over here😢 can I use Lowes?😂 Seriously, outstanding video. Since I can no longer physically get to the creeks I still prospect vicariously through you and Paulie. Keep it up!

That watch is sick af btw. Thanks for the info bruv. Exactly what I need to build!

Sorry if I repeat what other people just said. The algorythm will love it though :) Chris, that was amazing! One of your very best videos ever. I love how you trigger the creativity for building something useful out of "random" parts. I also do love strolling around in shops, thinking about how to "misuse" or better, re-use something to become a part of something much more useful, without spending much money. Keep on doing this. Cheers from Austria.

Could I ask what size pump you used please. I guess that 1100GPH would be too high.

Built one of those 7-8 years ago and have improved it a bunch of times, till I got it where it works a treat.....great job on yours!!

Excellent and inspiring stuff Chris .....Contact adhesive is mad stuff but really good at sticking, I had a few battles with trying to make it stick when it wasnt ready ...and the other way trying to make it not stick when I apparently wasnt ready I will have a look for it by name but I have a 10watt pond pump 3000l per hour which obviously not for a miller table but for running a sluice box should be both adequate for the job and is very cheap to run cracking build dude

C'mon Chris... everybody knows that the best place to buy even sheets of water is Even Sheets of Water 'R' Us. Sheesh!

Good one Chris, your Spud Engineering skills have gone from mashed to beer battered wedges

Criss! If you used your tooth brush, you could invest the GOLD stuck in the brush as an immune booster! 😁

Exceedingly very cool, I'm sure glad I watched this.

Well that came together well soo many hidden talents Chris. Thanks for sharing that...

Very nice Chris, Miller tables are great & I think it's the best way to separate gold from black sand. You waste a lot of mining time when you try to separate it when you are mining, I just pan down to the black sand & gold & put it in a freezer bag to take home & work it on my home made Miller Table, works great, I too did half Miller table at the top & half V mat at the bottom for the rolly polly gold, but the Miller table catches most of the gold, even the very finest of gold, my table has a deep well which makes the water flow nicely. I fine tuned it with Nome beach pay dirt which has very fine gold, got the idea from Utahavalanch, he makes some really nice Miller tables.I love your vids & the fun you have making them, keep them coming, Thanks, Serg

I reckon I’m actually gonna make one of these! That’s bloody awesome!!

Now I want to build one just because. I don’t even prospect for gold and this has me curious. 😅

Alright! This looks like something even I could do! I have a spot that is really short on water. Could you do a rocker box or cradle?

Intriguing build Chris, Challenge accepted...

Oh well done! I love home built stuff (worked with my dad on all kinds of home builds growing up, and built things at my own home as an adult). 🎉

Hey mate if you didn’t know put some wax on your cutting disc when cutting aluminium it makes it easier

Gonna try it with Lake Superior git'ns Very fine gold flour.

Great idea using the cutting board! I actually have a large cutting mat lying around that someone warped the corner when trying to iron on it... thanks wifey! :)

Now just add Mad Scientist to your resume. Love the idea of DIY.

Was that too spud for spud engineering or insufficiently spuddy buddy?

When he said, now too draw a straight line. My brain already knew he was not going todo it straight and I was still upset! Chris!! Why mess with my OCD! *Shakes fist in air*

My dad had extra slate after one of his projects so we made a miller table. Which turned into another one of his projects 😆

Excellent! Thank you for sharing with us.

That's Beautiful, now I know what I'm doing this weekend.

Love it Chris, that is why I watch a lot of videos and how to 's . Happy hunting and stay safe my friend

How about that eh. Well done. Thanks for sharing. Cheers 🍻

Hahahaha! Fantastic video dude! May even try making one.

It is so very easy to cut aluminum with a saw and carbide blade, if you have a chop saw even easier!

wasn't a weird flex, I'm jealous of all ur equipment

I love this so much - I've got a door mat from the cheap shop . Better than a dream mat . I send you a pic ..

Saving $$ and works like a charm! Thanks for sharing 👍

Would a rectangle paint pan that you use for a paint roller work?

Put steel wire on a fire until red and poke through plastic to prevent splitting.

Wierd just came home with tons of black sands to go through

Have all the parts at home to do the same thing. Good Job Chris.

impressive but that bench is suspiciously clean son 😆

You got to visit office works and bunnings in one day!

Tell me you watch AvE without telling me you watch AvE 🙂

Let's see you build your own shaker table 🤣

excellent alternative to the other diy options presented on youtube

A PANHUB shirt would be better !!!

that's the way we roll lol D I Y. thank you for sharing.

Chris, you are AMAZING!

Chris that is Awesome. I bought mine 😂
