[QUOTE="davsgold, post: 672734, member: 6570"] you need one of these, from a detector shop, Garrett panning sieve, you need sieves with flat bottoms so as when you tip the sieve upside down to check the stones the heavy gem stones are at the bottom of the layer and end up on top of the layer when tipped over. this single one has the 1/8" screen and about $42 [ATTACH type="full" width="364px" alt="1695174398763.png"]11227[/ATTACH] or a whole Garrett panning kit which has the 1/8" screen in the kit seems to be about $110 [ATTACH type="full" width="687px" alt="1695174455261.png"]11228[/ATTACH] cheers dave [/QUOTE]
