[QUOTE="Lesgold, post: 540567, member: 9840"] OK. Next question. Tathra was talking about his lay flat hose. I like the idea of using it otherwise you may end up needing a semi trailer to move all your gear to your prospecting site. Havent used it before so therefore the questions. Does it take much pressure to inflate the hose? Would there be much in the way of friction losses in keeping that hose open? If the answers to those questions are no then it could be worth considering. Having a long run of hose gives you quite a few options. In places like Oallen, you are chasing flood gold and just need the volume of water rather than pressure. If you need to break down a lot of clay, spray bar pressure sure does help. [/QUOTE]
