Thanks Crusty for making me feel welcomed I have had a bit of a surf around the site and must it looks like a great place to find all the information one needs..

Here in Australia we call a rock hound a fossicker and they do have some success in all parts of Australia though I don't think it is as popular as gold prospecting unfortunately .. anyway thanks again . Regards Greencheeks

Welcome GC!
Very nice hand pump you've designed and I dig the camo paint. We don't have the Gold that you guys do so color me jealous. If you have any juicy Aussie Gold or Opal pics for us to drool over, please share!
