I have one, use it when there is shortage of water, I sit in a 90lt tub and catch any water that goes over the side. There a fast way of processing dirt and it's very hard to lose gold. Good also for testing areas.

I have owned one and used one of these for over four years now and have to agree with "axeman" much faster way to work wash than just panning and good with limited water available. Just take a few extra 20 litre buckets of water to dry creek beds.
Very fine gold will slip past, however it will always end up in the bottom of the buckets. I put buckets aside that are full of wash and take home and rework. Perhaps I better explain .... when bucket fills up with wash.... shake bucket with water for a few minutes this will work the fine gold down and I usually throw the the wash in the top half of bucket away and rework the bottom half at home.
Hope this helps

Hey Dozer, where did you get yours from. Checked a link in an earlier post (#2) and they were a fair bit more that $235. Around a bout $60 more to be kind of nearly exact.
I've taken my newly purchased (2nd hand) Cresswell concentrator out to the Shoalhaven over the last two weekends for a total workout of about 6 hours with the result of about 135 pieces (specs). Very pleased with the ability to process far more material then just panning. I did however bring home the overflow slurry after skimming off the majority and put it back through the concentrator for another 10 specs. Very pleased with the result. Looking to headback this coming weekend to try out some new spots on the Shaolhaven.

Hi Ag Man, yes I have one and it works great, very quick to process and then discard oversized wash. Regards Lucky Five.
Just wondering who still has one , I was interested in borrowing one for a few weeks to try an area . Im happy to leave a deposit with anyone kind enough to help me out.
Ps. Im in Sydney but I can possibly pick up from country areas west of Sydney
