:twisted: Road almost passable and NEVER too late or too cold for the reclaimanator to ride again :evil: :lol: John PS-If your truly in a microgold spot you MUST ditch the powerjet and go suction nozzle as the pj remixes the gravels,kills preclassified materials and reduces microgold recovery. SN creates the suction immediately and the whole hose is now your preclassifier too :idea:

So, Hoser John. I've been wondering if a suction nozzle has the power of a jet. Can you enlighten me? Thanks

Not quite and a bit cumbersome too BUT when dealing with economically viable small gold areas it definately pays to go slow for the dough-John

Works great too when the gold laiden crevice or ledge comes out of the water and clear up the embankment. Go get her!!!! Image

Question,....
I understand that you don't wanna draw air through a power jet due to "blowout".
Why doesn't a suction nozzle react the same way? :?
I have done so much, with so little, for so long, that I am now qualified to do anything with nothing.
Now, I just have to find the time to put the dang thing together.

It does just recover almost immediately. Great for low water situations or small streams.

If any of you were looking at picking up a suction nozzle, seen this 4" for $25 on craigslist this morning. Have at it!
