Moving sand

that is how we built our base in Southern RVN . it was all sand anyway and a low water table. we built a perimeter and then sucked sand from the Mekong River to flood the interior . the setting of utility poles were a real trick. as you bored the hole the pole that was tobe inserted HAD to be hoisted up in position to drop IMMEDIATLY into the hole as the bit was pulled out. the water began filling the hole that fast but it worked good as long as we built "dead man" supports to keep the poles from tipping over! Im glad im not there anymore!
 

That Eddy Pump really moves a lot of material fast! looks like itll need a wide sluice to handle that amount of material as quick as it does! spread it out and slow it down!
 

Vern on Bearing sea gold just got one of them looks to work quite well.
 

Cheap and local?

TIME WILL TELL on how Vern does running this device! the machine may work perfectly but Vern will not listen to anybody! Its seems he thinks throwing lots of money at something will make it work! and don't argue with him!
 

We know how Vern is! I was looking at the machine itself. I know it's hard to take the human element out of the equasion.
