[QUOTE="bjarvie, post: 420407, member: 10965"] Hey mate, just noticed your message. Yes i have finally had a chance to test out the Gold Croc but not in Creswick it was the last long weekend we had when i was camping in Woods Point VIC in a stream out that way. It was literally a half ass effort in the morning before packing up camp just threw about 20 shovels of material, getting down about a foot just behind what looks like a old truck chassy that would have been sitting there on a bend for the last 50 years... anyway long story short i did get 3 little bits of colour they were all rough grain type pieces. It was more for me about learning about the flow that it needs for it to work to self clean and what pace i could load it up. I did find that after those 20 odd shovels you would really need to do a cleanup at that point as the little smashing chamber at the front was quiet full. One thing i find frustrating is that you cant see whats really going on in the chamber to tell if you need to slow down or pick up your pace Ive considered cutting out the sides and reinstating some sort of perspex so you have a clear view of the inside. Service wise the guys were great, the unit seems to be of quiet solid construction and most certainly will pickup gold if its there. [/QUOTE]
