After having used the 12" X 60" sluice for years to catch fine gold. It had never dawned on me that I had never seen any fine gold in the lower 18" of the sluice... ever. In an effort to reduce the weight of this efficient, but heavy monster, I am going to remove the lower two plate assemblies that apparently are never catching any gold. If I am not loosing any gold, why carry the excess weight? Your thoughts and/or experience are requested. Image below shows a 12" X 36" Gold Well.
