[QUOTE="MikeB05, post: 631775, member: 7270"] Hi Mate, your LeTrap sluice looks quite good. Drop riffles do work and your sluice is like the Canadian Angus McKirk drop riffle sluices. Also easy to clean up...no mats and no bits to remove. Only thing I cant work out...how does the water get into the head of your sluice...that is...can it be used as a river sluice then blocked off to use as part of a banker?? I have a fairly large (but lightweight) Angus McKirk sluice (The Alaskan) that had a similar problem in flexing a bit. I fixed the flexing by pop riveting some aluminium strips across the sluice which also made it easier to carry. [/QUOTE]
