After finding out Bazooka went under, I decided to hit up Craigslist to see if there was any local used ones for sale and came across an ad for all this:

Gold Miner Spiral Wheel

Has upgraded pump for better flow AND the $60 120 transformer

A Bazooka 36" Prospector (the one I had ordered)

and a pinpointer for $350!! smiley-shocked003.gif

Assuming I get the hang of the gold wheel, I'll probably get rid of my Blue Bowl and use the gold wheel to run my cons. Also stoked to be able to use the wheel on dry material working in AZ!!

All right, not as great a deal as I hoped. He had it listed for $400 but said price was negotiable. I offered $350 and he didn''t reply, so that was wishful thinking. Next discussion he said he had a few folks waiting in line, so I told him I'd give him his asking price to prevent from losing the deal. Still a pretty good deal, considering shipped it would be $800.

Will break in the Bazooka on Tuesday!
