Thanks to Wal, I got my Walbanker ready as well. Leg supports are currently out of wood, but already have alu ones to go on once the holes have been drilled. Modified it a bit, so that I can use it as a sluice as well. The sluice setup got us gold at Oallen. The paydirt from the Walbanker...

thanks for the replies. we ended up going to Narooma. was a nice trip. not much water in the mountains though.

Hi all, I want to go prospecting and the wife wants to go to the beach. Is there a spot between Batemans Bay and Wollongong, where I could use the Walbanker and the wife and daughter can drive to the beach? They said they would not mind driving 40Ks or so one way. Was thinking around Nowra on...

you can usually see if they have been sprayed, as the colour of the herbicide is reddish, at least where we have been going 4x4. i hate those things. them screeching on the side of the car is really painful to listen to..........

just burn it, blow away the dust and you will be left with the good stuff ;) also an excuse to get a new mat LOL

Hi Wal, finished my(your) Walbanker, but noticed that I probably got the wrong carpet. Looking at your videos again, I noticed that your carpet has a solid base. Mine is coarse, but see through. It was the only coarse one Bunnings had. Where can I get the other one?

For all those in Canberra, Metalmart (recycling) in Fyshwick has pieces (~350mmx400mm) of catwalk mesh I measured mine I got from there and it is 12mm high. Found a bread crate that is 10mm high, so hopefully that will work with the 12mm catwalk.

Great, thanks for all the info.

Hi, have done lots of research on this and other forums, trying to find out where I am allowed to go. For the Shoalhaven river for example, how can I tell, if the land is state or privately owned? Is the river always state land/water? I read somewhere, that the 5m or so from the water onto the...

Today I found - out, that i finally got 10 posts to be able to PM ;)

Thank you very much. That is a great help.

choice, we have a big bakery in Fyshwick. will give them a go, thanks.

i added another post to get to 10 posts needed for PM ;)

Where do you get the crate material from? Not sure if they let you walk out of a supermarket with their bread crates :lol:

great, just noticed that there was an outing in Tuena only 1 month ago. hope that these are being held more than once a year..........

Thanks all. that would be great, thanks!! we'll see.....with my current panning skills (never had one in my hand) i would probably loose a marble sized nugget out of one LOL ;)

hi all, stumbled across this site by accident, doing research on electronics - go figure ;) then i found Wal's Hi-banker, saw some of his videos and now i am hooked. i have never done anything like it, but gets me away from my desk and will hopefully meet some great people. the spirit in this...

Thanks for sharing Wal. I sourced some expanded mesh, but it is very thick. Cannot imagine that the crate and the mesh will match in height. Do they need to be the same height?
