Dave, ive finnaly got my new computer hooked up and slowly getting it set up for me. I also just finished watching your video that you sent me on the nozzle. one thing disappointed me, I didn't see you using the NPT taps that I sent you. the device that I have that you sent me has NEVER leaked and I never unscrewed them as you suggested... Thankyou!

Wow, I cannot believe how long I have been slacking as far as internet prospecting goes! It is really great to see all of yalls' posts, my old friends. I have been occupied with many things not gold-related for the past couple of years, had some health issues, which are under control now; ageing parents, and can you believe it 12 grandchildren. Dave's vortxrex is a truly amazing device, having seen it in person, his "tweaks" (which he got from perusing NASA's online assets) make it able to work in a nearly dry hole, it is designed to work as well or better sucking air as sucking water. It is a true dirt moving machine. I put in a bid on some land on a gold-bearing stream out west recently, and if it had succeeded I was going to get me a big one for working the large gravel bars there. But the owner and I disagreed on the properrty;'s worth so ... oh well. Maybe when that lottery ticket comes in.

Anyway, fantastic to see yall posting, I am quite moved actually, hope yall are well! I also hope you are all out celebrating the freedom bought for us by those we memorialize this weekend, living and dead. That is the best gift you can give them, a grateful remembrance and nod to their sacrifices, while living as Americans.

Just got my new puter last wek too Russau and nice to zip along and not slog like a snail. Lotz to learn but ol'dog doing it slowly but surely. Just gotta hook up new printer and good to go with a few more lessons. Take care ya'all--John

It would be nice to have the great Dahlke tradition and legacy kept alive by a quality operation for sure. John :D

Hi Russ, most of the footage on the nozzle construction DVD was filmed in 2004 before I had the taps.
