[QUOTE="brendomac, post: 275912, member: 7619"] Hi Happy Trails, I second what Maltisau has to say on this one. Additionally, I'd be thinking about the space you need between your larger mesh internal basket and the finer mesh external basket. You'll probably find you might not have much room between the two. But I haven't tested the idea, so I can't be sure. I have now run a couple of buckets through the setup, so far I have only had to use the finer mesh, it seems to be doing the job very well and is tough enough. The result is a fairly fine grain and runs through a sluice easily. I haven't tried the bigger gauge through the sluice, but from what I hear on the forum, it should work quite well, as long as the water flow is there. I haven't worked with clay yet either, But I might have some laying about to try out. Cecc, I got all my mesh from a metal scrap place. But I'm pretty sure you can get the other stuff from Bunnings.
