[QUOTE="Nightjar, post: 572313, member: 1414"] Teemore, Behind that galvanised shield there will be a small petrol engine driving it. The blue dryblower in the below thread is one I built and years later sold it. It recently appeared on Gumtree for sale again painted red but it must have been snapped up because the add has gone. The one shown below the "blue" in the thread is one I purchased and used as a pattern to downsize. It was called the "Falcon" built by a Perth company. The reason for down size, was a lot fitter back in the 80's and could keep up the flow with a shovel. You can see in the photo big shovel and a very fit mate doing his hour on the shovel. We stuck to the shovels and didn't introduce a bobcat was to keep on the good side of the Mines Department. :playful: Shovel fed dryblowing is hard work but a very rewarding hobby, if you're on alluvial gold ground you will have some in the jar at the end of every day. You can't give up your day job but it is very enjoyable with a few mates to sit down with at the end of the day and wash the dust down with a few coldies.
