Gotta start small, gotta start small. I need to keep repeating that. Browsing the web I see all kinds of tempting neat toys. I have a bunch of buckets (for pennies duh!) and even some scrap screen material of different sizes laying around so I will easily craft a sifting bucket or two.
Anyone on here tried small-time prospecting? I am interested in your stories!
So I need to buy a gold pan. What does one look for in a pan? (and don't answer gold, wise guy) I see tons on eBay but I don't want to just get any old pan that ends up breaking on me.
Finally, I want to construct a PVC hand dredge. I see tons of different designs online. Not too many plans yet though. Hoping to find the best way to construct one of these so if anyone has experience to share with this it would be greatly appreciated. I'll update this thread as I get more info together and hopefully this summer I'll post up some pics of wild NH gold!
