mate i reckon its absolutely awesome that you can still make these things in Australia as a viable business . just look at police uniforms , where are they all made now ? china or somewhere in asia ??
i love problem solving , innovation , design and analytics
really admire what you can do .
Awesome Joe, hmmmm a couple of those grenades could be just the right thing bust up some of those bigger gold bearing rocks too.

Sorry nugget for this going a little OT.
Yes it is annoyin that everything is offshore now.
It was because of a well known company in Melbourne that makes it's stuff in Vietnam, that causes several soldiers to have serious accidents on the firing range for them to make all non issue field equipment banned, thus killing an entire industry and taking all the work away from people like me.
But welcome to the age opf profit and greed.

today i made a 5 yr/old girl happy by going down the creek to look for gold
we ran 6 buckets through the highbanker, before the rain interrupted our work, so we packed up quickly
panned out the cons when we got home and found 0.26gm
the biggest picker was 0.06gm
and some very fine gold as well
now would love to get down there for the hole weekend and give it a good run

Today I started to make my trommel.
Got the main chute made with mesh between 2x half 15L buckets.
Just need some more bolts and screws to attach it to the drive shaft then a trip to bunnings to get the pvc fittings to make the frame.
Also cut the forst pieces of my soon to be sheet metal brake, just need some more angle ally from work to fiinish it, then I can get to making my Walbanker

And last night I dreampt that I was screvicing with a friend who had a waterproof backmounted vacuum while I scrapped the crevices underwater lol

I am an very old school craftsman... It is not how good or new the tools are... It is how well you can use them.. Give a clutz a hammer and he will hit his finger... Damb the dough you guys spend is amaizing.. I wish I had a backhoe...... Then I will not hit my finger...
Today I made some Chilli Sauce. It's a HOT one
