That is a beast. Nice work!  Smiley

As to the riffles in my opinion I would say more is better. The more you have the more chance gold has to catch. Height would depend on how fast the water is flowing. If the water is too fast you may need more height to create more cavitation to allow the fine gold to settle and not get swept out. If the flow is to little the bigger riffles will fill up with sediment.

That's what I was thinking,I don't want to blow the gold out the back so I'm may have to play with the throttle.
