[QUOTE="Tathradj, post: 305850, member: 2436"] What Atom is saying is true. Also you can over complicate an issue. It all actually comes down to the operator and how you work it. My Take. Don't put the mesh under the riffles. Put it between the last few riffles. That way, You have low pressure zones continually under your riffles promoting a fluid bed and the cat walk sitting in the direct flow also sitting on matting will enhance the same effect as well. Like a Wal Banker, You have your cat walk sitting flat on the aluminum and once the fluid bed forms, will trap fine gold very well. I have a set of riffles designed and built like this and they work very effectively. I will put up a photo of them later if you wish. [/QUOTE]
