Description
Le Trap Sluices are 46″ long and 15″ wide and will hold the finest flour Gold as well as large nuggets. The sluice can be configured as either a Bank Robber or a River Robber. When you purchase a new sluice it’s going to be configured as a Bank Robber, as that is how they come out of the mold and are safer to ship. If you take a saw and cut the back off the inlet side it becomes a River Robber. See details below. The sluice is made of high have an effect on ABS plastic and will take a large number of abuse, but must you ever get a crack or chip in it, it may be welded with ABS glue, available at almost any hardware store. The riffles are two-step with a ramp. This allows the sluice to be self-cleaning. It has a self-cleaning tray on the left hand side which makes it easy to tilt up into your pan and splash water into it for the final quick and easy clean up. When the usage of this sluice as a bank or bar concentrator, a spray system must be used at the upper end of the sluice. As a way to operate this sluice in a stream, you want fast water. The closed end of the Bank Robber Sluice can be cut out, creating the River Robber Sluice. For rigidity, leave a part of the end on both sides. Because the sluice is approximately 4 pounds, it is easy to back pack. In working this box, water must run through very impulsively, about 2″ deep, which keeps the riffles clean and will leave the Gold and VERY LITTLE concentrates.
