[QUOTE="WalnLiz, post: 15444, member: 147"] g'day Joe, Look at my vid a few topics down under "Running a River Sluice" and you'll see i use the same combination as the bankers. This combo only works if you have reasonable water flow. I have my own version of a drop riffle sluice for slower flowing creeks. Your idea of routing grooves into timber will work OK but you will need to empty the box quite regularly. Square sided drop riffles choke quite easily with black sand and ironstone, and fine gold then runs over the top. Make sure you classify down to 1/4" and your grooved slots are at least 2 to 1 ratio. IE, 1cm deep and 2cm wide slots or you won't create enough of a vortex to keep the heavies moving. Best of luck. Cheers Wal. [/QUOTE]
