Looks Good

Next time you may want to run the punch plate sideways from the way you have it now.
That way the holes will be staggered instead of in straight rows. Shouldn't be a problem since it's so long but in some cases fine material could "ride the rails" between the rows especially after small pebbles get stuck in the holes.

After zooming in on the photo it also appears that you may want to reverse the direction of your raised expanded metal. I know it's nit picking but when chasing fine gold every little bit helps.

Flow should be ----->


I once read a study that stated that the direction of raised expanded metal has no effect on gold recovery.
My experience has shown differently and I stand by my recommendation.



Looking forward to your results.
