Not sure if itl catch gold but it works a treat on soft sands, much like maxtrax but not so bulky and 1/20th of the price per metre. Off to the landscapers this weekend to grab a few, will be interested if it can catch gold too!

this is the other mesh pattern i am going to experiment with. this should create more distance too
