Hi, I am going to attempt to build a very similar unit. I was just hoping you could tell me what size pump I will need? Also what size hoses? Also wondering a rough idea of how much you spent? I am trying to decided if this will save me money making my own after I have to buy everything. Also after using this, would you make any modifications? Thanks so much, maybe we could get your number to chat a little more? Autumn

to seperate the final gold from the sluice, I use a sucker to suck out the top riffles as the gold is almost clean there.
Then I use a small garage sluice to clean the rest. I don't get much gold from the lower riffles so its almost a waste ot time to seperate that out.

Love the idea; yet, I don't like the pan. That's the only bit I don't "Love".
I'd pay some good money to see what you'd come up with as a final seperator unit. Custom wave table perhaps? I'd love to see it (o=

Princess Auto has a 1.5 inch gas pump and hoses that works excellent. Cost was $150.
The pump only needs to run at 1/2 throttle to supply the right amount of water to the sluice pan.
