5" 3 stage customizing

Posted: Tue Sep 11, 2012 11:18 am

Well just ordered some stuff to customize our 5" 3 stage keene dredge. Going to change it to the same setup that our 4" ultra mini has. Took all the carpet out and replaced it with the v grooved rubber matting and then put miners moss on top of it all the way down the sluice box. So instead of all the carpeting that doesnt catch much gold it will have about 72" of miners moss and v mat under that. I think our fine gold retention will go way up compared to the carpet. Might have to increase the sluice angle a little bit since it will load up more but shouldnt take long to dial it in. I will post results sometime next month when we go dredging again. Hopefully it will work great.
