Will this new high banker catch gold?

Took the new high banker out for a test run and work out what mods to do, there won't be many, Aussie-built and extremely well priced you can find them here

Definitely lose the lay flat hose. I know that spot, lol.😂 It looked like you had a leak near the pump. I'd also try a different spray bar. Something that is spraying water up the hopper. I'd tried plenty of different ones & as good as that one is. I think unless you're using a petrol pump it will definitely reduce water flow. If it's catching gold & loss is at a minimum the mat should be fine. Only change when it doesn't work. Or you will end up like me, with 20 mats.

Yeah the lay flat is temp and the pump has a over pressure outlet I reduced it from 50mm to 38mm so it pumps more water than the hose/fittings can handle, the spray bar does both sides and back up the hopper, I don't think the mats will take much volume before logging I have used moss with expanded mesh and that seems to go well. A ridged hose is going to make a big difference to the amount of water coming out of the spray bars I think.

@anothergoldprospector Just don't use the grey hose. You need to get the black one. Grey is strong but very stiff. Every bend in the spraybar will also drop the flow.
