[QUOTE="rodking, post: 554901, member: 3711"] Good score Martyz, I have the same machine that I bought new in 87 while opal mining at Lightning Ridge, cost about $1k with 2 diamond wheels. Plastic lawn mower fuel taps should screw to control water flow to each wheel. Still have the machine as I was always going to go back opal mining. Currently have a house in the Ridge and setting up mining equipment, tipper, blower, agi, digger and drill rig. You are not too far away from the Ridge, why not have a go at black opal mining. To see what proper opal is like do a search of Justin Thomas's YouTube channel "best of the best", he is an opal dealer and does very good opal videos, see [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WanLinyi-I[/url] [/QUOTE]
