Awesome!!! Are they going to ship it to you? I'm just gonna run up and get it tomorrow... then let the wife take me to this Casa Bonita joint she's always talking about lol With gas as cheap as it is, it'll be cheaper to drive up than to have them UPS it to me, even in my truck! -------------------- Find Colorado Prospector on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/170314493176558

Just say no to the food at casa bonita! I've gotten food poisoning there twice. The food is microwaved crap! (My sister waitressed there too.) The only nifty thing is the cliff diving.

I know it is a gamble, but since my wife grew up in Lakewood, she says I gotta roll the dice one, just for the experience lol -------------------- Find Colorado Prospector on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/170314493176558

No Mexican food is truly authentic without Montezuma's Revenge.

Just picked it up; there is actually still quite a bit of material under the moss and punch plate. Would be awesome if there was some color left in it!!

Great score Crusty! After you get your pump you'll need a foot valve with the same type of hose that is pictured for intake. Typically about 5 or 6 ft long. Then about 50 or 100ft of lay-flat hose to connect the pump to the highbanker. Lay-flat hose is inexpensive. You'll need some connectors and probably a reducer or two to get her all hooked up. Easy hardware store stuff. That HF pump started first pull on the creek after being stored for the winter. I'm still a fan of that pump for under $200. If you dredge you'll probably want a more expensive pump that is designed for dredging... like a Keene. I don't think trash pumps like the HF can handle that. Nice setup you picked up and excellent price! It had the foot valve, so I'm good to go there (just need to get the intake rigged up in a bucket). Does HF stock lay flat hose? If I can link up with Brandon and get set up, I can play with it with my buckets of cons and get it dialed in. I did clean out the material in it and there was no color in it -------------------- Find Colorado Prospector on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/170314493176558

I didn't find the layflat I needed at HF. I'm not sure if they carry any at all. I don't think that the proper terminology for it is "layflat"... that's what throws them and the hardware stores off when you ask for it.
I found it at my local Ace Hardware in the Spa supplies section.... I think I got 50ft. It came with a female connector on each end and I had to put a coupler on the hopper fitting to mate onto the hopper box. -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER!

GH stuff won't be here until Tue, so I'm not going to get it put together this weekend anyway. -------------------- Find Colorado Prospector on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/170314493176558

I saw this on Craigslist when looking for something else. Great deal if anyone's in the market for a good powersluice/highbanker with Honda pump and he's throwing in a Blue Bowl. Same setup that Crusty and I use, except has a better pump.
Used Keene -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER! Very Happy CP Lifetime Member CP CORE TEAM Referral Code CE213 |
