Totally unnecessary sluice build

[Greenhorn_diggin]

Since I couldn’t get out for a scratch the last 2 weeks I decided some garage therapy was needed. So I’ve come up with a longer version of my ever trusty Gold rat 1088. I’ve made a new sluice at 1200mm long x 256mm wide and incorporated a 300mm section of miners moss with expanded mesh. The idea is the mesh and moss can be moved above or below the dream mat. Does it work? No idea! Is it needed? Probably not! But hey kept me busy for a day and had fun playing around with it. Hopefully take it for a run next week and I’ll keep you all updated. Any advice is welcomed
