Your an ideas man Ryan, Your auger would also greatly reduce the amount of hand labour required. I'm thinking a small scale mining operation with loads of dirt in a big hopper feeding the auger, you start the genny and away you go.

Great thing these dry blowers...I built a highbanker but never even bought a pump for it as there was never any reliable amount of water in the creek I usually visit. Lucky I can pull it apart and just use it as a normal sluice aswell. Its hot and dry most of the time here in Oz so I wonder why dry blowers have not been used more in the eastern states in the past.

I eagerly await your prototype mate,

Cheers
