It took some years but my dad helped me fab up a gold trommel* in 9th grade.converted from 3 phase to a 65 hp Wisconsin engine. We ran it for a weekend and got 27 ounces with a 1602 permit from fish & game. MARIPOSA CALIFORNIA

What's a gold trimmer? 27 ounces in a weekend why did you stop?

Yikes my auto correct can be a real jerk sometimes! I meant trommel, my mistake. And I stopped due to property size but I have recently bought another property nearby that has the same values so I’m waiting on funds (among other things) to make the dream go again!
