I'm looking for a good condition Chucks Gold Trapper hand dredge, white PVC model preferred, that you can ship to CO. Let me know what you have. Thanks,

Bill I sold mine with all my other equipment awhile back BUT they are so easy to make ! A person could make their own cheaper than paying for shipping one to you ! I made a bunch of them in either 2, 3 , or 4 inch diameters. and I used a stainless steel rod with 4 Butel rubber washers (for suction)that I cut out with a circular gasket cutter and placed S.S. washers in-between the Butel washers with S.S. nuts to hold it all in place.

when the snow goes away more I'll look in my barn to see if I have one. I don't remember if I gave it to Russ or not. If I have it the price will be right. Free. The shipping to my house is a short drive also. I have plenty of time before you can use it any way.

Russ,
I just came back from Lowe's with a few items of ABS & PVC. A 5' section of 3" ABS DMV pipe was $31.86 and a 3" Cap was $15.41! WOW, prices have gone up alot, thanks Brandon. :lol: I'm going to make a 5' Super Sucker with a 3" barrel from instructions on the internet, but also want the Chucks Gold Trapper for sniping cracks. Hope Leonard can find his :D .
