Was a good weekend, had a good night at camp with rosco and the boys, met a couple of the local boys ( Adam and drover ), cheers for bringing the wood down drover and cheers to rosco and the boys for comin go the rescue when big red decided she didn't want to go in to gear leaving us stranded halfway between tuena and crookwell, dane0 your a champion! And cheers to the bloke who stopped and took gee back to tuena to get help.
A shame we could only stay 1 night but it was a good one, we even managed to pull some good yellow
Can't wait to get back out

Digginholes,

I love Tuena. Only been there once but love the place.

The the gold you pulled makes me even keener to get back.

What were the temps there? Have to love Drover bring you some wood, must have felt sorry for you guys.

Also on your higbanker the Aluminium strips that hold the bread crate down, are they fixed permanently or do they pivot and have mounting screws? I need to do the same to mine. I had little arms that swung down but want to replace them.

Gotta be happy with that. Cpl days of gold hunting put a smile on anyones face. Hope you had a great time. Thanks for the share.

the sides are held down with bolt and wing nut for easy clean out

sounds like a great time . the yellow makes it even better.

It was cold enough to not need an esky for drinks and stuff.. Water was dam cold, I think rosco(reeks) and the boys organised the wood delivery we just joined our camps and shared the fire instead of lighting a second.
Phantom the strips are bolted up the top permanently as the pivot point at the end of the sluice a bolt in the middle with a wing nut, un do the wing nut lift it up and pull out the crate but I suggest putting it the other way round with the pivot points at the end if the sluice and the bolt higher up it will work better

Some mighty fine gold you guys got there, making the itch of the chase worsen by just lookin at that lot.
I worked all weekend and was wishin I was out in the scrub digging a bit of dirt.
Still I have got 14 bkts of classified dirt downstairs to quench my thirst.
Well done.
