[QUOTE="Hawkear, post: 666813, member: 4728"] Slumbering away overnight, I can remember one of our PMAV West Gippsland members designing a “plunge puddling” device. It consisted of a stout rod at the bottom of which was a round plate. Into or onto that plate he had attached many thin steel bristles that he recovered from a street sweeper. The puddling was accomplished in a white plastic bucket by repeatedly plunging and twisting the tool into the mix. it worked brilliantly and quickly reduced about half a bucket of clayey mix to pannable or sluicable gravel in about two minutes of working. I also remember there was some talk of him marketing the idea but don’t know what became of it. [/QUOTE]
