Sharing my passion for gold prospecting through video recordings. Hoping what we share will convince others to get out of doors and experience the rush of finding a few specs of gold in the bottom of a pan. Join Alec and myself as we become better prospectors while utilizing more sophisticated equipment as we move forward. We are anxious to hear from other prospectors and hope to learn more about this gratifying and (usually) healthy lifestyle.

A lengthy detailed video on how I made a trailer hitch for my Chinese ATV. My son, Alec, did the welding and it turned out nice. Special thanks to the lads at Chinariders.net...the place to go for all your Chinese ATV, scooter, motorcycle, and go cart information and assistance. This video is a demonstration of how I made a trailer hitch for my ATV. I'm not responsible for any damages, injuries...

A little more progress as we elevate the drive sprocket assembly two more inches and complete the platform that will house the gas engine. Next video we will mount the engine and secure the trommel tube cap on the feed end.

We have installed the top half of the drive system. Main sprocket has the chain wrapped between it and the drive sprocket. The drive sprocket is on the shaft with the 12 inch double pulley. The shaft is secured between two bearings. The big part of this video is where my son, Alec, installs the half ton crane on the trommel trailer.
Arizona Gold Prospecting (The Trommel Build Part 8)

The second video of our last trip home. Was able to weld and cut the feeder tube. I attached the feed plate to the trommel tube opening and hung the feed tube in place to measure, cut, and weld most of the primary hopper together. Figured out the drive configuration and welded the supports in place where the bearings will go that will house the small drive sprocket and pulleys.

The trommel gets it's sprocket attached and we reconfigure the wheel that keeps the tube from sliding down the frame. The tube is now stationary on the frame as it begins to actually look like a trommel. I was pretty sick filming this section but was not about to let that stop me.
Arizona Prospecting, Drywashing Feb 2016
Переглядів 1,6 тис.8 років тому
We have been so wrapped up in the trommel build, I have not panned, sluiced, or drywashed in like six months! Decided to take a day to do some light work around the property and process 5 buckets of material I had forgotten about. I used a little drywasher I had picked up a couple years ago. It works very well. I'm selling it along with a mid-sized Gold Buddy Drywasher that I've used in earlier...

ur getting pressure off the bottom which has the weight of the water above ---- great idea
Very helpful video, thanks! Are those the new OSHA approved, steel toe flip flops? 😁
I bought one for my wife.Everything put together pretty good but the front wheels were I had to do a front wheel alignment.
Sunbelt Rental rents Hilti hammer drills. Why buy one unless you’re going to need one over and over again.
Dude…first off the NY accent. Music to my ears. What part of AZ are you at? I’m in the Tucson area and about to buy my first claim. Anyway, great idea for the Bernoulli connectors. So I built a suit like yours, with 4 tubs instead of 3. The 1st and second tubs have micro filters splitting the tub basically in half. I’ve found I can run pretty much all day like that, and I remove sludge when me and my son take a lunch break. I’ll post a video of my system on my new channel. Cheers!!
Glad you liked it! I just bought a patented claim that will have me up a rolling again. I'm in the West Valley towards Wickenburg.
*Concrete
I like the way you think. That's some dirty water.
Harbor Freight is Cheap Chinese Garbage ,Milwaukee is the way to Go ! Cmon man !….Nice Workboots by the way🤣
I do fine with my Harbor Freight tools. You want me to share the link to where I bought my footwear? Try being nice...I did you no wrong.
That dog in the background would drive me nuts.
Is this manual tranny easy to use? I read on a comment about the Rhino that if you have big feet that you'll have trouble shifting the gears. I have a size 11 foot and this is the only reason i haven't bought this particular model yet. What's your opinion on this ?
I'm size 10.5. I've never had a problem changing gear.
Also...I had a load of carb problems and have since stopped using gas with ethanol...problems disappeared. I still have both these units and they work fine.
@@bobbydemar88 thanks for your input, gonna pull the trigger on this Rhino. Probably get an adjustable carb and hotter CDI after the engine's broke in.
Get the new Coleman 200 it’s got same power and auto transmission taotao motor like mine it has 160 miles on odo no issues
And always use 91 octane
What a great idea.
This guy sounds like he isn't a native of Arizona
a little less talk a little more actiom
Great job thank you for sharing your project How much did you pay for the foundation work?
I think using a reciprocating saw was really a good idea as you get a vibrating effect without using an offset weight to achieve the vibrating effect. That is, now you do not have to be reliant on rubber mounts, as opposed to using solid mounts such as springs and hinges that would account for the reciprocating motion. Good idea, good video.
Anyone getting a building with concrete done like this ask concrete guys to do a 2"drop next too the framing helps with keeping water out and a slope by the garage doors
Can I come have a beer and joint with you?
You still have these? Are they still running? Would be cool to see a long term review on one of these
I do have them and they run swell. Might just put a vid together .
Milwaukee all the way 👍
Great video!
Where did you buy all the pre fab to build it?
I think you erred and purchased the hammer drills that didn't have the SDS function. I've had one of the HF SDS drills and used it to drill 2 inch holes in a piece of ledge to split it for removal. It worked fine and still works great years later. If you had purchased the SDS drill, instead of an inpact drill, I think you would have been happy.
Perhaps...I'm a huge HF fan and still am. Thanks
Versa tube kits are way too expensive, can easily get a building installed from someone else and still save a few grand compared to versa tube . Way too expensive for a do it yourself kit. $17,900 for a 30x39 with 10ft walls. Just payed 14k installed for a 30x40x10 . all vertical and the same metal specs …
Your dreaming, In North Idaho a 40x50 shop was quoted at 81,000. Versatube done myself will cost half that at 40-45000
@@stevehall7479 dreaming about what exactly. I assure you my 30x40x10 cost me 14k , I wrote the check for it . And am insulating it this week.
@@MrErikwade What state are you in? Company name?
@@MrRspar Oklahoma, Alan’s factory outlet .
You couldve done yourself a big favor with some sill seal under those base rails
does 3 tubs really keep your water clean? I have 2 big tubs with smaller tubs to catch tailings similar to yours. I cant keep water clean what so ever.. After a bucket of running dirt, the water is too muddy to see what is going on in the riffles.. Does this really work?
It works...the tubs act like settling ponds. In theory, the more ponds in line the cleaner the water. The water, when recirculating, is going to get cloudy as soon as you start running material. Watch your sluice activity by testing your tailings looking for loss.
Too lazy,
Thanks for sharing the tips you figured out on the way. We're putting up a 30x34 kit.
Thanks for your video amigo i love it stay the course enjoin seen it i will share it
Where is the next video? I want to see the finished product.
Holy need tricks of trade impact drivers socket tip for socket for anchors .agent tip for screws Philips tip for pan screws
20 buckets and not a lot of gold .good job anyways wow ! Hot tub time. Lolol
Mongoose. If you don't mind me suggesting this is something that will help you and speed up your process while you had it all set up and measured out just should have went through with your hammer gun and just put a little dentation at each hole all the way to the end and then move your face out the way so you can drill your holes all the way through that way it would have speed your process up and you can blow everything through and one main issue a lot of people forget is to drill all the way through your slab I don't know how thick your slab is but it gets a better anchor when it pulls up from the bottom up instead of inside the concrete I hope this was helpful and you're doing a good job keep the good work up
I apologize for that the name. Goldstryker.
Just buy a gallon of clean water don't drink use it on final clean panning at least when filming
I got that an black sands before they went black outa veggie soil ua-cam.com/users/shortsvE00cLqCeiY?feature=share
Did u set anchor bolts for the ends of the columns when you poured the slab?
You drill after wedge anchors not ibeam columns square tube clips hat bar
The title of your video states you are building a 30" inch X 40" inch shop. Shouldn't it be 30' foot X 40' foot? Measurement skills are a necessity in the building and trades industry.
So is common sense, we know what it meant.
This video is to scale 1” = 1’
I notice you have anchor bolts about every 5 feet, it looks like. I had a shop installed recently where they only put anchor bolts maybe every 10 ft, and that concerns me. I already know they were a bad installer, because they put one wall up off level, and had to straighten it before I paid. Can't get anything good from anyone anymore.
Yes you need anchors every 5 feet bro for up lift anchor it home brother iam installed giveing you proper advice
This is the only video, I can find on the internet regarding the RDH GOLD BUSTER2
Nice little setup. Greetings from sunny Jamaica.
I just ordered one of these Gold Buster
One 1200 gph pump is not enough...buy a second to keep sufficient water flow. Down the road, consider an extension with Gold Hog mats...URs and/ or Scrubber mats.
Ok I see, you have 2 pumps. Cool
How come you have the hose duck taped like that?
Never mind the drill, I just want a pair of those rad flip flops.
Lol....didn't notice that until I read your comment. ikr.
Wonder if he ever hurts his toes wearing those
Hello What is the thickness of the concrete slab? Thank you
5 inches with a 12x12 footing all around
If that was 15 buckets I'm on a sweet spot cause that looks like a Colorado 2 bucket cleanup!
Sweet setup!
Thanks for the video. Will go look at some of your others. I just bought a 2021 Rhino 250, and am looking forward to assembling and modifying it. Content like yours is much appreciated!
he has put out a video in a while. if you upload the videos on it message me. I'm thinking about buying one
Did you have to have that sprocket made
I’m just starting mine! Doing a 21x27 I just finished the site work but will be doing radiant I can’t wait to get it up
Safety First! Steel toed sandals!
So where is parts 2/3 and the rest? Did you quit putting this together?
Hi David...I did complete the shop. I have the footage. I needed to bring someone in to complete the sheet metal work. Work has me crazy swamped.
