Look at all the empty pans

After A long Absence He Returned

Here I am! I'd like to begin by offering my apologies for such a long absence. I am going to try and maintain a little more continuity here. I suspect it'll be pretty difficult after being away for almost 12 months.

I don't have anything to offer you right now so this will be a short entry in the recreational gold panning blog. I'm hoping that my friend Zemanta will be able to help me out with this.

As I have mentioned before I have a very poor typist so I used the Dragon NaturallySpeaking program to do my typing for me. Sometimes this causes strange things to appear on the screen. I'm not too fond of editing so they generally just slipped past me. Sometimes they're good for a laugh though.

My other hobby is sports betting. Let me give you a bet for today this is January 21, 2012 the best thing I can see is in the Montréal Toronto game I would bet to win and I was also bet on under 5.5. If you take this bet let me know how you make out. I guess you don't have to be as I've been on it anyway. But if you win let me know and I will give you another bet. This time of year I only bet on NHL.

Unless you live in New Mexico or Arizona are probably not doing much gold panning anyway. But I would like to ask anyone who is to send me some pictures of your results. I'm always looking for stuff to post and things like that really helped me out.

I have run out of thoughts for now so will add a few links and call it a day.

The Best Ever Easy to Build Classifier

U build Classifier

This classifier is just the thing I needed and maybe it will help you as well. It is simple to make and works super great.

Read the whole page to get all the instructions. I built one in about an hour, the page says six hours nut maybe the builder needed a couple of breaks.

It looks a bit on the flimsy side but it says together because it is inside another pail I guess. The thing I like VS the one I had that fit into the top of a 5 gal pail is that this one can do about 6 or 7 times the material all in one run. It does it fast and easy. Make one and give it a try.

While you are there take a look around the site - there is a lot of good stuff. Maybe if you live in Colorado you will want to join the group. It looks like a nice outfit. You will find the complete instructions by clicking HERE.

After that you could hop over to my site - Recreational Gold Panning. This will land you on a page that will tell you how I made my old one. You might like it better. What I do now is use the CO model (that is my name for it) and then classify all the 1/4 inch stuff through mine with a 1/8 inch screen in it.

Then I get out my bucket sluice (click the link if you do not have this great setup, it is cheap and simple. The way things are supposed to be) and whittle the cons down some more. Next comes the Old Gold Pan.

I Found This Great Site For Ebay Miners

I was looking through a bunch of "junk" emails and got curious about one of them. I am glad I did, because if you are sometimes inclined to check out eBay for mining gear this site has it all done for you.

I am going to put it here as a link EBAY MINERS SITE click and you will be taken to a page that has eBay listings all sorted and ready for you.
It is part of a larger website but the rest was not to interesting to me so I did not spend much time looking.

Bodie, CA Ghost Town - this is a good one

When I visit a web page I enjoy looking at historical stuff. I could give you some examples but they are history now. Once I have looked at them I tend to forget about them unless it is something about a place I might want to visit.

So lets see what comes up in the way of historical gold mining ghost towns in Nevada. some times putting a sentence like this in will drag up a couple of good links. I will refresh and see what we get...

Not bad!!  I will include a couple here for you to check out, and be on my way to check some of the ones that look good to me. Maybe next time I will do another state.

Thanks for looking at my page, Del
