We are located around the Barstow California area and very interested in purchasing some equipment. Let me know what you have.

Thanks

Too bad you're so far away. I've got an old Keene unit that we bought about 35 years ago. It has less than 3 hours use on it. (we found out it's not near dry enough here for a dry washer) It's been sitting in my shop all that time. Has a Briggs & Stratton engine, with self-contained blower. Have no idea of the model #. I'm not interested in shipping it. I'd sell it for half of what a comparable new one would retail for.

Have you checked the local shops and prospecting clubs for used equipment? There are clubs in Victorville, 29 Palms, a few in Las Vegas, and likely more I either do not know about of have forgotten. Craigslist may also be helpful. I have one in my shop in Oregon just gathering dust since a stroke, but you are too far away to make that a cost effective option. If, however, the new meds help some of my persistant post-stroke issues, I may want to load it up and join you for a few weeks of shoveling sand and gravel.
 
Try Pedersen's Metal Detectors in Buena Park. That's where I found my used Keene Drywasher.

Check into Valley Prospectors, a club based in the area.
Great folks (from those I've met) and probably a used
dry washer or 2 a member would sell. Not to mention
access to their claims.
 
Check craigslist. Antique dry washer I just click on "for sale" and enter the word mining. Start with searching the big city's in your area.
 
Been thinking about a dry washer as well.
But from what I have seen (and that is only pictures and videos), I just keep thinking there has to be a better way?!?!

All things considered, whats the acceptable amount of loss with a dry washer?
No ones been able to make a better "Mouse Trap" when it comes to processing dry material?
I'm still searching for answers cuz this is all still new to me, so sorry if this is dumb.

Cheers
