Today I MADE

[kemjak57]

I thought Id put this in this thread for someone who has made their own or got one of Muks dolly pots. Ive kept some of the small paydirt I got from WA I would like to give it to someone to crush and pan out. It will test you skills with panning and you will also need to crush it to almost powder to recover all of the gold. First in best dressed I suppose. The pan isnt included PM me with address.

Cheers rick

The WA paydirt has been taken. Cheers

Thanks Ozzie, Gary is pretty happy with the outcome and Im totally rapt, hes finishing off making his own left handed gourd banjo now.
Any chance you could record youre wifey playing the beautiful violin you made and letting us have a listen Oz, thatd be awesome.

Thanks too kemjak, I love the deep earthy tone too and Sandta thanks, thats my first ever video post, happy with it because I wanted to share the lovely sound and thanks too Wally, Whitey, Megsy and Mackka, both of us not that good at playing banjo just yet, but were having fun learning.
Dueling banjos one day Mackka....one day :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer:
