[QUOTE="MurrayC, post: 101728, member: 3726"] I just picked up the AM Boss and took it for its first swim last weekend. No experience with sluicing at all but they seem pretty much idiotproof. Stick it in the river with water flowing half way up the header box. pretty much keep it level if the water flow is decent, or angle it slightly down if its slow, and just dump your sands in evenly. only advice I can think of beyond that is pan out the stuff when you clean it out a couple of times. As you can end up with a pile of black sand in your pan and be losing gold if you are not careful in the final stages of panning. I dump it back into a container a couple of times just to make sure as I've been surprised a couple of times with gold I had unexpectedly lost from the first pan through. That black sand is sneaky! :) [/QUOTE]
