Thank you. Never thought about it as being a teacher but I do love sharing my ideas.

You and me both! Thanks Kevin

You and me both! Coming soon I hope.

Awesome! Thank you! Good luck with you new mat. We are in the same area. Time to get some digging done.

Thanks a bunch! Can't wait for spring.

Glad you liked it!

Thanks 👍 Have fun.

Me to! The last item should be in the mail today.

Sounds great! Enjoy the new mats and sluice. Spring is almost here.

Coming soon I am getting excited it's turning out so cool.

Welcome aboard. I hope you enjoy the channel spring it almost here and will be time to get out and dig.

Yep and I will be doing a new one on how to make them any size you want very soon. Thanks

Thank you They are only getting better.

Glad you enjoyed it. So much easier now.

That's a good tip and yes that would work just fine.

Any time! It would be hard to screw it up.

Absolutely better. Thanks John

You bet Thanks

Thanks 👍 Can't wait to see the new sluice done as well. Soon I hope

Glad you like them! More to come

Thanks for the visit

@@alanrobertson2510 I am in the process of building 5 10" river sluises .. one for myself , one for a friend , one to give away on my channel when I hit 250 subs and a couple to sell . So many choices out there I am still trying to figure out what to go with . I have a couple tried n true mats but I know there are better . I am gonna try a few more out . One of your molds might be the way to go . Anyways.. really helpful video !

@@indianacreekgold8892 Good luck with you sluices. Nothing beats silicone mats. I will have to check out your channel.

Super easy now. Thanks

Thanks 👍 I hope to have the millersluice done soon just a few more additions.

@@alanrobertson2510 Looks pretty perfect to me not sure you need any improvements lol but can’t wait to see em 👍🏻👊🏻

@@48thstateprospecting I am going to try and put a built in speed controller on it.

@@alanrobertson2510 a waterproof one I reckon awesome idea I was wrong it could get better lol 👍🏻👊🏻

Thanks I'll take that

That sound like that would work. I wonder if it would have the same results at catching gold like silicone does. Thanks for the input.

Hey Rick hope all is well. So Keith and I have been in contact and plan on meeting up sometime this summer. I hope it works out.

Yep no more mixing and does away with most of the smell.

Thanks again Jack. It doesn't get any easier than that.

@@alanrobertson2510 What's really funny..most prospecting videos I usually watch once...With yours I watch two or three times because I just love to learn...and see all the inventions you have made.

@@jackbailey149 That's so cool. Makes a old guy smile.

Much easier now with the sides you just need a big print bed.

Good luck and thank you.

Spray water and soap mix and the mold. You don't have to but it does make a nicer mat.

Maybe in the future. Need more time.

Thanks 👍

I have never tried WD 40 before. I have used pam cooking spray and a spray on mold release for plastic molds without any problems.

I checked the website and it seems to be working fine. I don't do the selling anymore. Please contact Justin through the website and he can help you out.

It depends on the mold you are using. Most of the molds would take 4 tubes for a 12x12 mat

I would totally agree with that statement. Thanks Bill

I am not sure what would work for that. My printers only go up to 250 degrees the petg prints at about 245. You might get one form out of a mold if it doesn't get to hot.

No I will not be doing vortex mats. I am not willing to talk about why.

No worries, I am a rookie at this prospecting stuff. You definitely know what you are doing my friend. Best wishes. I plan to place an order at the end of the month. Thanks for what you do and sharing your knowledge.

@@nicolasespinoza131 You are welcome. Thanks for following along. Be careful this hobby is addicting. lol

Yes Sir it is... "My name is Nick Espinoza and I am a gold addict" 🤑🤣

​@@alanrobertson2510 Gosh Alan, sounds like your ingenuity picked you up a parasite, I mean a Liar, I mean a lawyer from a competing adversary that doesn't care for your style of music you play. Don't let it bother you, all it means is that your competition is jealous and you are on the right track! You are in the Big Time now! Nobody wants to pay one, but you might consider a patent liar for a cease & desist order, Again, this country, as most others, revolves around folks building a better mouse trap for their needs, and when they do are amply rewarded! Not your problem when making, improving upon something that has been around 5,000 + years and you discovered a technological improvement to make it better, think Keene Engineering and how many liars they had to spank pee pee and send away! I'm not a lawyer, I mean liar, but you are on to something by teaching, showing, or selling to the not so much, DIY'er! Don't let anyone step, stomp, or otherwise get in the way of doing what you like to do! As long as you are legal (I believe you are) maybe some tax liability if you make to much $$$ and don't report it. but other than that, the only reason for a pencil neck suit poking around would be a jealous person thinking you stole their design and then rested on their laurels thinking they could not be improved upon! Shame on them for their conceded thinking, you are a pillar of American society now, so act like it.... Ha, Ha, good job!

Yes the silicone repels the water and so does the gold that is what causes the gold to stick to the silicone. As far as copper I have no idea.

I did a video last year on this. The mats run over 300 hours at my friends mine and showed no signs of wear at all. So a long time

Pull the mat out of the mold after a few hours then wait a few day before you put it in your sluice.

One and a half tubes of silicone for the Hi low v mold.

Usually steal the parts for other projects.

The website is printingprospectors.com the silicone mats work great on super fine gold

@@alanrobertson2510 thank you

@@alanrobertson2510 I'm in ohio and all I found so far is super fine that's why I'd like to try your molds

I think I will put the prototypes on the website soon.

Let's figure this out. I would say let the silicone cure longer before you pull it out of the mold. One more thing to try is spray some dish soap and water mix on the mold before you put in the silicone. I hope this helps if not please let me know.

@@alanrobertson2510 thanks for the reply. I will try that.

@@alanrobertson2510 also, what is the best way to clean the molds after a failed attempt? It was a pin getting the silicone pieces out of the mold. 😅

@@nicolasespinoza131 Yes that a a pain. Just pick out the pieces the best you can. I know what is going on. Be sure to mix and need the silicone in the water and soap mixture very well and let the silicone set up longer before you pull it out of the mold. This will fix the problem.

Success!! Thanks for the tips.

For sure. I use 1/2 cup of dawn in 2 quartz of water.

Thank you
