Had plenty of practice making a similar device when i was a young fella. This should be easy.

Yeh they’re cool hey we just sanded straight over the water staining and glossed it up adds character 😁

[@UtmostOutdoors]

Rock solid video! Exactly what I was looking for. I see you're using a new bottle 2 years later, ever pursueing perfection! Thanks!

[@DirtFishMish]

First we had the toilet paper shortage, now there'll be a run on kids fizzy drink at the local supermarkets! hehe. Thanks for a weekend project idea mate.

[@insolentstickleback3266]

I went on a similar quest for the "golden," bottle. After several super markets and dollar store excursions I found these condiment bottles at a wholesale restaurant supply. They are opaque, but they are thick walled, and provide a powerful suction. Who doesn't like a powerful suction? : D Well worth the time, I have had several of the tiny premade snuffers split open on the seam, that is a distressing event best avoided.

[@officialtassieboysprospecting]

Oooh that ain’t good nothing worse than losing gold

[@MrDingaling007]

Any links or sources where i can try these condiment bottles? I've tried squeeze honey bottels, soap bottles, many plastic water bottles and a suace bottle. Nothing that stands out or works as good as the little minelab snuffer bottle (which is too small for sniping).

[@markwigmore2103]

Thanks for fulfilling my request, less complicated than I thought. Many thanks

[@officialtassieboysprospecting]

Yes they are pretty straight forward

[@teamsignal17]

Thanks Levi! Now im off to the market. I will be watching Tassie Boys while drinking my juice! Cheers Brother!

That's it off to the supermarket for me and get me a 6pk sit down an watch some Tassie Boys while Steve goes an makes us some thanks for the info Levi.

Thanks for that. Sometimes it makes it easy to make something new when you know how. Well done and keep on, waiting for the next video.

[@kenmorrill3774]

Love your videos. Wish I could show you the snuffer I've used since '73. Battery acid test bulb and 1/4" plexiglass tubing. Has a string attached that I tie to rock hammer or gad bar so it doesn't disappear down river! Also use a weight belt that can be filled with rocks when I need to work deep.

I so wish I could go gold hunting with you there in Tasmania Levi. Great job on the videos!

[@jasethesmiff5683]

Yep, cheap n easy. Plenty of plastic bottles on the roadside heading to ur place and out my way too

[@officialtassieboysprospecting]

Yeh that’s even better recycle the roadside ones 👍🏼

[@MMProspecting]

Great build did you fo this because of all the massive amounts of gold you've found everytime ya go out

[@officialtassieboysprospecting]

kinda hehe

[@mohammednovalija]

How many trips does your bottle last before it either leaks or the plastis doesn;t bounce back well any more ?

[@officialtassieboysprospecting]

At least 10 or more they last a long time

[@thegeck9978]

Damnit Levi put that steering wheel back on the other side of the car.

[@officialtassieboysprospecting]

Bloody dangerous huh 😁

[@danieldeanmasterfinisher4715]

Yeah Levi I’d have to agree with Johnny T ✌️ lots of use with similar device Back in the 80s 🍄🤪❤️ Never thought of trying it underwater thought, that could be difficult. 🍻😎

[@officialtassieboysprospecting]

Now I’m sure some of you have your own ways of making a snuffer and better ways of doing them. I’d love to hear from you and how you do them.

You better write down those instructions dried up on a piece of paper put it in an envelope and mail it to yourself and don’t open it that is called a poor man’s patent and you should patent that design in my opinion great video enjoyed the little plug for Your show while drinking juice made me chuckle thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏻👊🏻

Glad to get a chuckle from you cheers mate and yes probably should patent the idea

[@user-cl3dz6hi7x]

A note for all viewers not in Australia. When Levi says "mill" in relation to measurements, he is talking about the metric unit millimetres (1/1000 of a metre), NOT the imperial unit mil (1/1000 of an inch).

[@MrMarkar1959]

25.4 mm = 1 inch.

Hi Levi - thanks for this! Say - in the last part of this video, where there's sniping footage, I see what looks like a large amount of yellow something-or-other inside the bottle - don't think it's gold :) Any comment on that?
