[QUOTE="Reeks, post: 184543, member: 1557"] Hi Peacekeeper nice looking unit, I like how it goes straight into the bucket My last trip west I was using my yabby pump with 2 basic cheap fittings. A reducer, and a length of 20mm OD pvc, all up about $5-8 can't remember exactly. The hole I got my picker out of was around 900mm below the surface - I was on my knees leaning into the hole and pressure blasting water out of the nozzle and cleaning bedrock, then drawing up the gravels and pumping out into a bucket which my old girl was holding below ground level. In this situation I couldn't of had a more simple, effective attatchment. I think your setup is good and would work well in easy to access spots but in situations similar to what I had it would be more of a hindrance not being able to blast water out the nozzle and having a big hose coming off at right angles. I also encourage sharing ideas here on PA, if you have a look through some old posts you will find many great ideas/inventions/contraptions that guys have posted to make our hobby slightly more effective/easier and more enjoyable - quite a few to do with crevicing.
