You're livin the dream mate , making wages Gold prospecting . Your little plant is coming together nicely , Keep the Vids coming. Ive been putting those sample bags you sent me to good use, checking out some new to me mines over here.
Thanks Jethro! And that's great to hear. I'm beginning to run out of new spots to explore around here. Might need to move to the other side of the mountain soon!
Winter hasn't even started in Finland yet has it Orhan? I think your seasons are opposite to ours. Nice and warm here at the moment. Soon to be unbearably hot 🤣
@brianwatson6607 It's a dream of mine to make it over to AK and do some exploring one day! So you never know Brian, I may take you up on that offer in 10 or so years 😉😁
an integrated auto-panner, very good idea! I‘ve specifically been waiting for an update on your table as I was wondering how you‘d deal with the experiences made earlier. The math is interesting to say the least but considering my material is a nuisance wirh fine gold, flakes (often round and very thin) but also nuggets. I‘ve decided to go for a very light construction: plexi table (could be warped up to the collection bins), neoprene matting, maybe silicone mat (the stuff used for baking instead of parchment), one large box for the closed water system. As I‘m not going for a steel table and frame and would want to drive it electromagnetically I‘m also looking in to air or water „bearings“ for the linear motion. If you’re in the mood for optimising your table I‘d probably get myself an adjustable linear actuator and give it less travel but slightly higher frequency. Sound complicated but it can be solved mechanically. Was the previous table of the same size? I recall that you replaced the table itself but kept the drive train? Watched this with my wife, both loved it!
Close mate, I kept the table as it was, but replaced the drive train for it. Just made lots of changes to the deck. But it's more or less the same as it was. I like the sound of many of your ideas, but i do wonder about what throughput you wish to achieve? Mine can do approx 200kg/hr max as I've tested it so far and it could have 10kg or more of materiel on its deck at any time. Seen at the table is approx 2mx1m and is required to do a fair about of work it was essential to have a very sturdy deck and very sturdy frame underneath it to make sure the parts that were meant to move, moved and the parts that weren't, didn't. A lot of vibration is easily transferred into the frame of the unit if it isn't super strong and that will drastically affect its efficiency. It's a catch 22 of size and weight to get it right when your deck size is anything over a meter squared from what i can tell so far. Very sensitive machines! I was super super happy with how well the spiral wheel performs with this system now. It makes the whole job so much quicker! Would certainly recommend that upgrade for anyone with a similar system 😁
Another good video Bryan. Is that gold in the ball mill from when you processed my last lot of ore? It would be good to see a sniping video one day ;-)
Probably not Rick. Your gold was heaps chunkier than that! I'd done a few little samples from the property here recently, so I'd say the chunky stuff came from that. With the addition of some nice flaky bits from elsewhere too. 👌 I'm too impatient for sniping, I don't last long before I get bored in there 🤣
I hear you say about hammers for a hammer mill. All available here in Australia. Beckworth Steel in Coburg or alternatively get them laser cut from 400 Bisalloy.(very affordable) Enjoy your vids mate.
Nice piece of gold, excellent job.
Nice one mate.
Thanks Mic! Can't believe how well the spiral wheel worked at sorting those 1 and 2 cons. I'm unsure how I lived without it until now! Love it.

Спасибо за ролик, мой друг!🤝👍
Выздоравливай! 🙂🍷☕🍯
Спасибо брат! Я очень доволен тем, как работает спиральное колесо.
Nice to see you tuning your setup! We have snow now here in Finland so, not much mining happening atm :D
Winter hasn't even started in Finland yet has it Orhan? I think your seasons are opposite to ours. Nice and warm here at the moment. Soon to be unbearably hot 🤣
Добра тебе старатель, уважаю тех кто всë делает своими руками🤝
Ещë бы построить полноценный тëплый ангар и увеличить объëмы золотой руды👍
Спасибо друг! Если мы оба продолжим усердно работать, я надеюсь, что мы сможем достичь наших целей. Наши золотые цели.
Could have been loads worse 😮 you still have your gold, and nothing exploded, I will call this a 🏆 win.
No explosions, still have all my fingers and collected a little gold. Gotta be happy with that! 😆
As always nice work
And as always, Thanks Rod! 🤝
Another awesome video I wanna build something like that here in alaska keep up the great content “GLORY HOLE BOUND”
Thanks Brian! Where aborts are you in AK? I would love to get over to that part of the world one day.😁
@@TheGoldmansChannel I’m on the Kenai peninsula lots of gold here I. Alaska
@brianwatson6607 Beautiful part of the world Brian! Love it.
@@TheGoldmansChannel yes it is if you ever head this way let me know we can go do some prospecting

Did you retire the old dinosaur Stihl 😂
Never!! I love the old dunga 051AV, but it ain't easy to swing around doing little jobs like this, that's for sure haha.
Dude, get a tripod
You have a valid point there. I'll look into it!

Thanks for sharing that info mate! Very handy to know. Cheers! 🍻
