[QUOTE="GFC07, post: 116703, member: 3992"] Thanks for the feedback Gcause, Fully understand where you are coming from, I'll ensure final design is not a chinese ripoff of a sponsor, it will be a reflection of Australian ingenuity and refinement for Aussie conditions. As i said, this is all theoretical and conceptual at this stage, and i'm doing it more for the design and costing exercise more than anything really, And if i can make myself one first that works i may offer what i have learnt in the way of instructions or a finished item. I'm Not looking to make a million dollars, but if i can make a working fluid bed sluice that is cost effective, that possibly others may be interested in, LOL that doesn't break any international patencies, or piss off forum members, then it may develop further. I totally admit the theory is completely based on the sluice affectionately known as a "bazooka", but have you seen how many sit up machines there are out there? I don't believe that the concept of a fluid bed is patented?, its used is multiple industries including heat treatment and sandblasting, so its no secret. Also i'm not prepared/can't bloody afford to pay $600 +/- $150 postage from USA for a plastic sluice, and i'm tipping a lot of aussie aren't either. Cheers [/QUOTE]
