4 Replies and 6726 Views Drywasher Leaf Blower Motor Settings...  6726  4 Started by  Chipbrault@gmail.com Bought a new blower today from Lowe's. It's a Paulson 200mph Leaf blower. I do not believe it has a way to set the throttle to a steady setting while shoveling in the dirt. Does anybody have experience with this and some advice for a rookie   Thank you!  Chip

9 Replies and 8704 Views Location, Location, Location? (Asks the greenhorn)  8704  9 Started by  cahorders@gmail.com I'm a very new GPAA member living in south Alabama and I've never found a speck of gold.  I'm biting at the bit to take a trip to the mountain area around GA, SC and NC - about 6 to 12 hours away.  I went once years ago (armed with a toy gold pan) and spent the whole day just trying to find a spot.  I felt like a dog sniffing over hours for the perfect spot to do its business.  I found a river bank off of a main road filled with garbage and debris and tried my ...

0 Replies and 2998 Views LDMA news for GPAA members  2998  0 Started by  tpleibel@gmail.com Normally I don't care as I am considering joining the LDMA. But the one word topic 'Fire' next to Scott Bar information category kind of makes me wonder. There are regular GPAA claims in that area too.  And look at the long line of Duisenburg Auction item postings. Us regular GPAA members have cash too you know

3 Replies and 6026 Views Need help with battery selection  6026  3 Started by  rhunt01@ius.edu Hello: I am building a sluice that will be fed with a Johnson 2200 GPH 12 V pump; it draws 7.5 amps.  Does anyone know reasonably priced deep cycle (or regular) battery that will run this pump for 6 hours or so.  Realistically, I will run the slice 6-8 times a year.  So, I don't know if I really need a deep cycle battery for this number of recharges per year.  Maybe I do  Thanks ahead.

1 Replies and 6368 Views Spriggs Property Ohio - any tips  6368  1 Started by  rhunt01@ius.edu Hello: I am planning my first visit to a GPAA site - the Spriggs property near Lucasville, OH.  I will only have about 6 hours at the site.  Anyone been there who can give some advice on a work plan.  I have a small sluice.  Since it is on a large river I am concerned if there is enough flow and drop--otherwise, shovel and pan.  Any tips on good spots that might lead me to my first nice flake or nugget would be appreciated.  Thanks

2 Replies and 4789 Views Permits  4789  2 Started by  benji27potf@yahoo.com Hi, I plan on going onto the GPAA claims to pan, sluice and metal detect. The counties I plan on visiting are in El Dorado and Plumas counties. What kind of prospecting requires permits in CA  Might seem like a silly question but I rather be safe than sorry. Also to visit these GPAA claims, do I have to get a hold of the claim owner or is that something that members can visit anytime   Thank you for your time.
