G’day Travis, I’m in Newborough & see your name come up in similar interest groups and pages/friends. I don’t go out very often at all. Hoping to change that but time will tell. Same area as I’ve done most of my exploring/prospecting too. Stick with a pan, crevicing tools& yabby pump. Much...

I have many years ago for very little reward but it’s there

Cheers cob 👍 Never really left 😁. Just pop in less frequently since the site was sold to overseas. Does Harry still own it or who now?

Sorry about the decade delay 🤣 Stick welder mate. 240v CIG Easy Welder I think it was called. Not stainless pipe. Just cleaned up mild steel with wire wheel on bench grinder. Never paint the insides of a dolly pot or you’ll end up with paint flakes & dust in your cons. Cheers 🍻

Looks great. Cheers for posting up 👍

No mate. The monster is a great machine for gold but Im not near detectable goldfields so tomorrow Im going to swap my monster for an Equinox 800 & start shooting for coins. Its got a gold setting but thats not why Im getting it. Ill continue to get my gold fix by panning, sluicing & sniping...

Looking for a swap of my GM1000 GoldMonster for an Equinox 800. New similar price but depending on condition or extras could negotiate a $ difference. My Monster has found gold but I just dont get a chance often enough to get to the gold fields. Im going to continue gold panning & sluicing but...

It could go off its chops. Turn it down, groundballance until it settles hopefully. If the signal goes just left, Id leave it. If it goes left right, then Id chase it. Could be gold in ironstone or near it

I find all sorts of stuff with mine so dont see why not. Just no good on beach tho Im told. Something about the salt sends them a bit bonkers.

Check out Busted Knuckles on YouTube - he seems to do well at Adelong Falls

How did your project go? Id thought of leafspring for pick but yup, weight put me off. Plough disks are the go :perfect:

Havent been doing the forum rounds much of late. Posted up in the PA going south? thread

Hip Hip Hooray :cake:

*Flanno needs its own post... Same here, go out in flanno, work in flanno. When worn out they make the best rags & polishing cloths, kids nappies were flannel, bed sheets - you guessed it, flannel :playful:

*Proud Bogan here too. Long live the flannel shirt :beer:

Yeah mate, just a bit hit n miss/other priorities etc. too. I do pop in here every now and then ;)

Sad to hear mate. Same happened to me... Very early in my prospecting days I let slip what gully I dug up a 1 gram piece whilst sluicing. Within a few weeks the gully was raped. That was about 10 years ago... might go for a look see. The area might be forgotten again & some gold replenished :/

Looks good mate :pickshovel: :goldpan:

Hey Casper, Greeting to you also. I am well thanks bud. Good to see the site going strong. Id lost log in details, access to my email yada yada yada, FaceBook groups happen... Let prospecting go for a bit, bought a tinny boat, sold it, bought sailing boat, sold it n bought another tinny :D ...

Last week I got myself a Gold Monster :D Haven't done much prospecting of late but still have the itch(it won't go away :argh: )
