  American 4 5 6 8 inch Combo Reclamation Gem Gold Dredge           This is an American Made Custom Engineered 4, 5, 6, and 8 inch Combination Gold Suction Dredge with unmatchable recovery! The Dredge - Sluice Box is extra large with Over Six Feet Long and 24 Inches Wide and has about 10 Inches to play with at the end of the 6” header box. However, it completely disassembles to fit into the back of a pickup truck or trailer, no other dredge does this of this size & caliber. Also, this enables you to pack it into the back country and have an Unmatched advantage. And, for its size, it is very light weight because it’s constructed of Aluminum except for its iron riffles in the box (you could replace them with aluminum if desired). This is the ultimate Dredge for the Professional or Dredger that is looking to for Maximum Movement of Material and Complete and Thorough Recovery and Processing. Details: There are 4 Pontoons for easy mobility and maximum flotation.  Most people can stand on the pontoons of a dredge of this caliber without damaging them.  They also feature removable plates on the ends to add or remove flotation material based on your needs. Being that it’s constructed of aluminum it can be polished and/or painted to shine like custom wheels if desired UNlike marlex or plastic dredges. Dredge was a joint effort between OC Engineering & an individual with a team who demands to be anonymous; as do some persons do that take mining seriously/professionally.  It will cost you over 60k for a new replacement of a custom dredge this caliber. If you don’t believe it, take a look at the starting prices of Industrial & Reclamation Dredges that don’t have all the options and extras this one has, nor do they have the capability dredge in so many classes. You’ll find their starting prices are 30-40k on up for new. This is not a standard keene or other dredge that goes for 10k and up new.  Have been offered a DeLorean that was used by and displayed at the Motion Picture Association in Hollywood, CA for this dredge. Also, a Custom Motorcycle that was featured several times on TV and bike magazines, but $ talks. All offers will be considered and buy it now price may be adjusted accordingly.  This could be an excellent investment for a sharp seller, or a person who is willing to find or wait for the right buyer. This is a huge break for a group that is looking to start a commercial reclamation / mining company, or an individual and/or family who is looking to get serious.   The actual run time hours on the dredge body itself is approximately 30-40 hours.  However, the motors, pumps, hoses, regulators, matting supplied, are all brand new/unused.   This dredge has 2 NEW / Dual Engines: Briggs & Stratton 319cc 13 FT-lbs of Torque @ at only 2500 R.P.M.!  Each one are 8 HP 4 Cycle.

Or you can fashion up your own if you have the skills, and you can have some 6" pipe for free. You may also need some fittings/hardware that can also be found at mining, hardware, plumbing, or industrial supply stores.
