Hi Mark, I love what you've done with that 2.5" mini! You guys are like dredge design wizards! I have no dredging planned in my immediate future, but I just wanted to say thank you for all you guys have done for the gold mining industry over the years. From this beauty to that amazing 6" supermax, you keep on killing it year after year!

I bought my first Keene dredge 2.5 floated on a truck innertube back in 1980s for $ 550.00 Briggs and Staten 2.5 horse water pump with a garden hose hook up on the pump I ran a pressurized nozzle back then the dredge played for itself after a flood in two weekends east fork San Gabriel river

@@KeeneEngInc Just remember, these aren't gold dredges, they are stream restoration machines. Under the current laws, technically you aren't polluting as you aren't "adding anything to the stream", only taking toxins such as lead and mercury out of the streams and rivers. You guys should be fine running a demonstration video of your new steam restoration machine without breaking any laws. After all, last time I checked, picking up trash was not against the law!

What would it take and cost to upgrade my 2in backpack to this 2 1/2 with a power nozzle? Assuming it’s still a 1 1/4 coming from the pump. I have the blaster setup and recently purchased a ball valve to install. Took your advice the other day. Not much fine gold where I’m at so I think my sluice will be adequate. So I guess just the jet flair, 2 1/2 in flair attachment, suction hose, suction tube, and nozzle. Unless I’m missing something. 🍻

Anyone who runs rubber mats in a dredge sluice box has a lot to learn. A dredge sluice box has way too much Chaos for rubber mats. I have had a few customers who have tried and gone back to stock. Rubber mats of any kind do not work in a dredge due to the rocks changing the back eddies, and heavy water fluctuations will cause more gold to be lost than they catch. A traditional riffle with carpets constantly migrates the gold into the carpets, moss, etc. The rubber mats work okay only in ideal conditions. I have tried them over and over, and I find gold in the sluice front to back of the sluice and out.

If you are going though seal that fast you are most likely running to much sand through the pump. Perhaps you are running the pump dry at times. If you are not doing ether we should look at the seal load. Also if you have received the wrong seal pick up the phone and call so we can make it right. 8189930411
