SUMMER SPECIAL $23.50
GREAT CLEAN UP WATER RECOVERY / RECIRCULATION SLUICE BOX (rev E)
for processing your fine GOLD and rich BLACK SAND concentrates that you have lying around all those years.
Get your significant other (wife, girlfriend, and kids) interested in processing the concentrates to recover the GOLD.
I got tired of panning out a 5-gallons bucket of my 5" dredge concentrates, so a few years ago I started experimenting and building these Clean Up Sluices.
"A HECK OF A SLUICE" is a light-weight, (2) TWO STAGE prospecting tool, which can be used to separate Black Sand and fine GOLD from your concentrates after you'd Panned, Dredged, High Banked, and Dry Washed. It can be mounted to the output side (in place of the small cup)of the GOLD Wheel and/or attached to a five-gallon bucket or tub.
Water flows, using a 12 vdc water pump (for Water recovery/recirculation ) or garden hose hook up to city water, through a water hose hook-up flow valve with a 90-degree elbow, which makes attachment to the water hose more flexible at any position.
A "T"- MANIFOLD, located at the top end of the sluice, ensures an even distribution of water.
The WATER FLOW VALVE can be used to adjusts the amount of Water you wish to flow thru the Sluice.
The FIRST STAGE occurs when small amounts of concentrate is added to the mixing area, which is located above the ribbed rubber matting, the mixture of concentrate and water then flows over the ribbed rubber mat catching the GOLD. Small nuggets, pickers and lickers can now be collected from the ribbed rubber mat using a Snuffer Bottle.
The SECOND STAGE or remaining concentrate continues to journey to the ribbed carpet area, which is topped with a diamond shaped expanded metal overlay, to catch the fine GOLD. Each Diamond shaped acts like a MinI Ripple. Remove the diamond shaped metal overlay, throughly wash the carpet and empty the filtered concentrate into your gold pan to recover the fine GOLD.
"A HECK OF A SLUICE" is quality constructed with all new parts, which include the hook up valve and the sluice assembly (pump, hose and battery not included). Hope you have a Heck of a good time and find a Heck of a lot of gold. The sluice is 2 x 4 x 24 and weights about 1 1/2 lbs.
WATER FLOW VALVE/90 DEG ELBOW furnished with the Sluice Box.
SET UP and Operating Instructions along with pictures are furnished with Sluice Box.
Gold wheel and bucket are not part of this auction and the pictures were added for demonstration purposes only.
Water Pump and Bilge Hose not included.
Vern's Testimonial
I QUOTE:
I finally got a chance to try out my new toy...it works like a "hot damn"... I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of very very fine flour gold the little sluice managed to recover. When I first got my hydro bowl I managed to let it slurp up a few table spoon fulls of black sand concentrates because I didn't turn the water down like I was supposed to. Anyway rather than redo my concentrates they just sat in a bucket for the past three years until your invention came along, needless to say I'm very happy with the way this little sluice does it's job. You named it right it's " a heck of a sluice ". Vern Newman

Ray’s email 5-01-08, I quote:
“The wife and I worked our "home side stream", aka kitchen sink, and practiced with some concentrates that we had practiced with from panning and ran it through the sluice using the rinse hose as a water source, and with my wife's dogged determination, recovered more gold than we had gotten from the panning alone. The tailings had been panned at least twice previously for practice. I t6hink the wife used the Ivory soap percentage, 99 and 44 one hundredths as her recovery goal, and didn't miss it by much. I think it can be said it "hooked " her quicker than a hungry bass hitting a buzz bait! Thanks for being able to answer my questions and for making a really good product for the people really new to gold finding. Thanks, Ray”

Revision E 01-16-07 to the sluice design provides an extra piece of OZITE Carpet
Revision D 7-02-06 to the sluice design. I moved the "T" Water Manifold closer to the end cap thus giving extra mixing area.
Revision C to my sluice design. I am now tapering the up stream end of the carpet and cutting the end at a 45 deg. This will make the water flow more .
Revision B to my sluice design. I am now using vinyl coated wire to hold down the Expanded Mini Ripple Wire Mesh and the Fine GOLD catching Carpet. On the old type wire the paint chipped away and the wire rusted.
Revision A to my sluice design. When I was prospecting in June of this year, I decided to paint the area known as the mixing area (area between the T manifold and the ribbed rubber mat) with Flat Black plastic paint. A prospector emailed me and suggested Hunter Green. So I tried Hunter Green and I like it. All the Sluices will have Hunter Green in the mixing area.This enables you to see the GOLD as soon as you sprinkle in the concentrates.
I can custom make a Sluice for you in any configuration and length up to 4 feet. E-Mail donjacqueheck@wmconnect.com for details.

My friend Barry was cleaning out his old shop and rediscovered this tool box. It belonged to his father and may have belonged to his grandfather. We are trying to figure out what brand it is and it's age. It is a very heavily constructed box. It is hard to imagine anyone picking it up full of tools. If you have any information please let us know.
Follow up note: Several people on the Garage Journal forum tell me it is a Chicago made Simonset military box dating from the WWII/Korean War era.
Cupcake money box with a cute tied bow, pink hearts around the middle, sprinkles and topped with a lovely pink heart.
My father had the first tool box he ever had when he first became a Carpenter. I rememnber all of these tools and the almost identical tool box. Strange to think this one was in a museum.
His first Box Lacrosse game ever was not quite how he envisioned it...The 5XL jersey and 20 lbs of pads proved to be *slightly* restrictive. Perhaps we'll revisit this when he's 6'2".
The Wild Republic Natural Poses wolf says "It's really cramped in here!" On the road in that tiny space for five days, but he recovered quickly.

The Altissa Box was a nice new variant of Altissa's characteristic line of box cameras. It was launched one year before the company became the state-owned VEB Altissa Camera Werk.
Altissa Kamera Werk's former name was Eho-Altissa.
I found this box during my New Year's walk after having eaten so much over the holidays. ;-) The area where the picture was taken gets flooded to some extent almost every year during summer rainfalls (the place is something like 200m from the Danube main stream). The place itself is pretty scary, people have left behind all sorts of different things in the forest and also water silts loads of crap in what in summer appears to be the bank.
O-S Music Box, view B using a feedsack print (not very good for taking pictures, but it is really great and with a proper weight for a fall/winter dress).
Liesl was totally right on this one: It is very simple and easy to follow (and the results are impeccable as usual with O+S patterns).
I'm pretty sure this one will be a "must-have" in her closet from now on and I'm already thinking of ways to make it a bit different - piping, rick rack, maybe even some embroidery on the bodice front.

Loading box lunches before departure, Detroit Light Guard Armory, July 13, 1960, a.m.
* * * * *
July 13, 1960, by Paul Magley
After arising about 5:30 AM, on Wednesday, sleeping bags and air-mattresses were quickly packed, Beginning at 6:30 AM, a breakfast of sausages, eggs, buns, potatoes, cupcakes, and milk was served.
At 7~30 AM, the last scout left the basement dining room as buses were loaded with gear and box lunches.
The contingent leaders called for the police escort and decided to alter the departure time to one slightly ahead of schedule.
After leaving the grounds of the Light Guard Armory, where we had remained overnight, our group proceeded along 8 mile road. Along the departure route we noticed the Detroit Artillery Armory and a large fiberglass factory at approximately
8: 15 AM.
A light rain in the morning had been sandwiched between a downpour during the night and heavy rainfall in the early afternoon, which cleared by 2:00 PM.
We went south on route 24. which for some distance is known as Telegraph Road, and passed over the small Rouge River three times.
The buses entered Dearborn, Michigan, at 8:50 AM, = by 10:00 AM, northwestern Ohio - at 10:10 AM began rolling on the Ohio Turnpike - 11:40 AM, passed double toll gates and entered Indiana on the Indiana Toll Road.
At 12~00 noon our bus met and passed a troop of scouts from Troy, New York, who were also going to the Jamboree.
When we stopped from 1:07 to 2:00 PM, at a service area in northwestern Indiana for a box lunch outside a restaurant called the Glass House (also a Cities Service Station) Mr, Kohnken, ASM" met Dave Mayer of Watervliet, New York, a leader of a
Troy, New York Jamboree bound troop. They had met at philmont Scout Ranch in 1959.
We also learned that this contingent from Troy prepared their own food enroute instead of having their meals catered along the way.
Somewhat later we were obliged to halt for a short while because one of the buses had minor engine difficulties, However, it was quickly fixed by our driver-mechanic.
At 3:45 PM, we observed a mass of transmission lines and electrical transformers that enveloped us for several minutes.
Illinois was then entered at 3:50, Lake Michigan was on our right side and, at 4:00 the Calumet Skyway Toll Bridge brought us into Chicago's variation of a traffic congestion problem.
We arrived at the Navy pier at 5:00 PM, Between 5:45 and 6:30 PM, we enjoyed an excellent dinner at one of Harvey's Restaurants in Union Railway Station.
After by-passing the rush hour, travellers waiting for trains, we filed by troops up to the mezzanine for an excellent dinner of fried chicken, peas, potatoes, rolls and butter, apple pie, and milk.
When Casey returned to the bus he was given a double round of cheering, A sign reading "Cannonball Casey at the Wheel" was attached to the front of the bus by the troop scribe.
On our sightseeing trip away from Union Station, we observed the outward evidence of a subway system, empty lots of junk" a fire department academy under construction, slums, railroad tracks and cars beyond count, piles of graphite, ship canals, the home of the Spiegel catalogue, Comiskey Park of the White Sox, long railroad underpasses, an annex of the University of Chicago, Chinatown, combined police and fire department buildings, and the Chicago Coliseum, (where the Republican Party will hold its 1960 convention) passed in an array of rapidly appearing attractions.
We saw the art institute, Grant Park" five story high layered parking lots, orchestral music hall, public library, Prudential Insurance Company Building, and the exquisitely modern Chicago Sun Times Building.
By the time the street lights were turned on we became slightly confused as to where we were. However, we continued on and saw the "highest church in the world" located in a tall office building.
Suddenly finding ourselves along the shores of Lake Michigan, we witnessed the fury of one of the Great Lakes. Unusually low
temperature and tall white breakers drove everyone off the beaches. Angry waves lashed against retaining walls causing spray to shoot several feet skyward.
From there we went on through Lincoln Park" past the Central Park Lake and the Chicago Zoo. The famous monument of Lincoln is also found in the aptly named "windy" city.
The Chicago Federal Court of Appeals had a perfect view of the gale swept shore line. Steve Horlitz and others almost lost their neckerchiefs as they hung from the open windows.
We returned to the Navy Pier at 9:00 PM, took a shower and retired at 10:15 PM.
During the night a frost was deposited on the grass outside.
Note: We didn't have to set our watches back one hour for Central Daylight Savings Time zone near Elkhart, Indiana» since we already had set our watches back for standard time in Detroit.

I went for a nice walk in Fitzroy Gardens this morning, while the weather is nice. Hardly anyone about at 9 am , but Kere Kere Cafe is doing takeaway. This sketch was done in the time it took to get my coffee. It is still a usable Post Box, I am not sure of how long it has been there. It is an original old box, but it may have been put there for all the tourists that go there.
Did I mention how much I love my watercolour pencil
