Patience and lots of it. I use an angus mackirk predator 3 captures all the gold but still have to pan. A tea spoon at a time

Blue bowl? I'm sorry if that's not what you mean. Snuffer?

On the cheap I used to use a drainpipe with ribbed rubber matt and a pond pump on very low. Angus mckirk has a great range of sluices just add a header and a bilge pump. Failing that estwing make a great pan with fine riffles on one side only $30 for a 14 inch or $20 for a 10 inch on ebay.

I use 2 foot of rippled irragation pipe 2inch dia spit and open .
Use hot water from kettle to make soft then cold water to hold shape when spit. Cut individual ripples and setup like sluice.
Small water pump recirculated i can go through 10litres of cons in 1hr... Can use without adding ripples hope it helps.

Mate I have a little black bowl I place inside my pan.I fill the bowl and a cup or 2 of fresh water in the pan as well.I put my flour gold/ sand/black sand in the black bowl and tap it into one corner.I then run my rare earth magnet through to get out the black sand leaving the gold and sand, fine quartz behind.now for the trick, I get my sniffer bottle and fill it with water out of my pan that the bowl is sitting in.then I submerge the tip of the sniffer bottle under the water in the bowl over top of the gold and sand and gently squeeze water over top of it towards the other corner of the bowl gently washing away every impurities other than the gold.this will leave all the gold left in the corner you started in and everything over the other side.and if you make a mistake the gold will simply be caught in the pan under neath.then suck it back up and put it into your glass vial.I can get 100% clean up results using this method with no other contamination in with my gold.hope this makes since and helps. :lol: :lol: :lol:

The little black bowl I use is no bigger than inches square and maybe 3/4 inch high. I pinched it off the wife I think it might be one of her fancy coctail sauce dipping bowls but serves my purpose better.lol

Pan down as far as you can cover your left over gold and cons with a little water with your pan tilted tap your finger behind the gold and cons all the gold will walk up to the first riffle.......GR
