The Deceptacon Banker.

Dolphin · Jan 18, 2017

Playing around in my shed after work this evening and knocked up this little Banker for the cost of $10.00 since i had almost all the bits lying around.
Just roughly Sluice length 900
Hopper length 500
Optional trappings to be preset for gold or gem hunting and obviously finetuning shall be completed after field testing, but over all i'm reasonally happy with the present result since i made it from scrap and it's much lighter and easier to carry than some of my other gear.
Hope you enjoy it, cheers from Dolphin.

I love the concept of men's sheds , blokes can escape to the man cave and hit things until they feel good .

drill holes in something until the world feels rosy again !

It doesn't matter what you make or if you ever use it.

As long as it's noisy .

Coz you get the chance to be a bloke again.

I have seen a place where they grow 6-8 inches bigger than that , only one family is permitted entry to the lands so don't ask.

Huuuuuge .

Came for the Banker...stayed for The Cray!

Love that it cost you 10 bucks and a couple of hours in the shed, gotta love your broom for the Walbanker too.

Years ago I got some massive Painted Crayfish up in the top end but if that one in the pic (looks like my dad in about 1978

) is a Southern or Western Rock Lobster......well done Sir! Looks like it would feed a family of 4, or Sunday lunch for myself.
