5" dredge Project

[YellowFever]

Nice looking project!! Where you outta? Just curious.

I'm in Colorado but I spend the summers where the gold is! this summer I spent my time in Oregon.

Well I have put the project away and getting ready to head to Arizona for a few weeks before I go home for the winter. I will be back in Feb and back working on the project sometime in March.

Well Im working on getting my 5" going Im just building the smaller one for now, the pontoons and frame are ProMack I am doing some Mods to this frame to make it fit my needs, the motor that you you see is just a mock up the real one should be back from a rebuild on Tuesday!

I'm using the new Keene PH500 pump on a Honda 8HP motor, a Keene jet log and flare, the sluice box will be a double screen system(I will give more pictures later this week) I will also be making a hot water heater for them cold winter days! hehehe

Nice work bud! I don't really care for that air pump though. My bud has one of the new tripple sluice 4" , and he went threw 2 in one summer. Luckly Keene sent him new ones for free!! Just because he went to the shop and bought it new from them. Is that a soda tank your using for air?? It works???? Might have to use the ones I have!!!!

Keene has totally redesigned the the KAC compressor as of last November because of all the problem with the first released KACs, I haven't heard of anyone that has used/tested the latest design that would let us know if Keene really has fixed the issues.
