Testing A Homemade SLUICE Box..Success or Fail?  

Great day out there fam. Cool setup. Keep at it. You got this fam. Gold Squad Out 🤠

Trial and error! Nice job man!

Thanks for taking us with you. Noce tools... Greetings Tom

Great video as always. Too bad about the failed sluice box, looked promising, never know until you try. Keep up the adventures, look forward to it every Monday morning when I get into the office.🤫

You should paint it either dark green, blue or black. That way you can see the gold better while you're sluicing to make sure you're getting good material.

Excellent video bro

I don't have my first D.I.Y. sluices anymore either. I was able to give them away 😆. A romantic creek. The autumn colors are wonderful. Was the big piece at the end gold in your pan? 🇩🇪⚒👍🤠

Bird houses 😂

Think you just need more flow with that setup, I’d give it a shot before making a bird house out of it.😂

Okay what i see as failures-water is too slow for one-you need to get rid of material to stop flat boarding. Second, you need to lift the material in the front and wash away all the light material first. A piece of scrubber from goldhog would work well. In the front below the Scrubber put in some UR mat to keep speed up and have some traps for fine gold. Also I would put in some punch plate or 3d print one to keep it light, but again, you need a serious water flow. Blow out the sluice with speed first then dial it back. Your goal is to keep gold - not black sand and rocks. I can sluice all day without a cleaning until the end. My sluice is much bigger and heavier and I can shovel right into it constantly. Heck 2 or even 3 people could. My punch plate is 3/8 holes-so the punch plate needs to be high enough 1/2" so the rocks can keep tumbling out that fall down. In this video it appears the very first problem is water flow not design. But if you can put a piece of scrubber as soon as material hits the capture area would be ideal.
