New Mini HillBilly Highbanker and Trip

[Caminochaos]

The Highbanker:
Cost less than $10 and 10 lbs! The small sluice caught about 85% of the gold and the big sluice caught the rest. We were feeding it fast and hard and went through alot of material in just 4 hours.

The Spot:

The Results:
First sluice clean up.

All of it.

Looking nice man. Some pretty color there. I really like how you got the sluices set with the highbanker to shovel into, that so much nicer then just a sluice. That creek looks good too. Thanks for sharing and hope you find much more there.

Love the set up!! How many buckets aprox did you get to put through and how was the noise factor from the pump? Who would have thought you could do so many things with a plastic 5 gal bucket? Good job guys thanks for posting the pics!! gotta run I am trying to get out to sluice it up. Will post what comes of it, see ya. Gravelwasher

If you look at your tailing pile and our tailing pile we ran approx. the same amount of material in 4 hours then we did by hand in 3 days. The pump wasn't bad. My brother and I can hold a normal conversation without even raising our voices.

Thanks guys. I found a slightly taller bucket that should give me a bit more room for my shovel. I also need to work on a better way to mount the bucket to the sluice and perhaps a cheap stand. I'll be using it in a new spot tomorrow so we'll see how it works out.
