I was a sub-contractor to Telstra & NBN, the network is held together with Grey duct tape & cable ties. 😅 seriously.

I saw that "I make a living on KZread"! You are essentially doing what the old time merchants did, providing the slew of gold miners with what they need to get it done. Well done mate.

I do but its not easy. Theres highs lows and stressful times . To be honest its harder work than a normal job but i love it .thanks for the video 👍

Great project Chris and Gadzee! Awesome day, I do love when you are upfront with stats. Thank you for the shout out as a Patreon. Makes me feel like I matter in someone's life. Keep up the great work guys....and Fern of course!! ❤👍

I heard those too, I realized my comment was wrong. I thought it was a witty colorblind comment, and it turns out it was just a wrong color bucket running gag

If someone ever sticks two pieces of bread on my face and asks me what I am, like Ramsey did there… we’ll be fighting. That was just uncalled for. 😂😂😂

Thank you Chris for another enjoyable and adventurous time out in the bush! It is great to know that when I am struggling with the CPTSD, I can come and watch one of your videos, and knowing that you struggled the same, I can sort of ride on your coattails as you’re out there, working that and get a sense of relief from you. I hope this makes sense.

Yes you can ! My claim averages .7 grams/yard. Hard work, but with equipment and permits is possible to make $200-400/day. Love your channel mate ! Sometimes too busy to tune in. Keep up the amazing work and making it fun !! 🤠⛏️⚒️👍

Thank you for taking me along. Please stay safe everyone

You two are bloody hilarious! 🤣 What an amazing smoky quartz you found! Stunning!! And some nice gold too! Thanks for the vicarious adventure, prospectors and doggo! (Ps I loved doggo cam!) Cable ties and duct tape and homemade rocker boxes for the win.

Can’t wait to see the follow up. That jasper was awesome. You are down there with so many great minerals, jasper’s, agates! You really should do come rockhounding and videos finding some. Many people that watch the gold prospecting videos love rockhounding as well. Food for thought.

It's so refreshing to see a prospector KZreadr. Have a good day and still remind everyone how special that is because a good day like that is very rare

Fantastic episode Chris and Gadzee! Very fun and entertaining. Loved the smoky quartz. Can't wait for a sequel to this video. I was supposed to get a puppy in June, but didn't get there in time. But I've decided when I do find one that I'm going to name him Sir Gadsden, and call him Gadzee. I lost my little puppers Brat in December, she was 13. And I really miss having a companion.

"Bright Green Bucket!" Love the inside joke! That should be the title of this video.

Hey man. I can’t wait for the next part. Awesome video. You guys make a great combo as always.

Chris, that is a lot of gold, rocker box or not! Nicely done. The ribbed carpet (aka indoor/outdoor carpet), in my experience, catches gold that other highbankers miss. So much so, that I use a highbanker 1.5M extension with nothing but ribbed black carpet from the Dollar Store. The extension is 2 extra long boot trays with ribbed carpet. There is always fine flour gold in it, and usually more than I expect. If anyone can't afford rubber sluice matting, I highly recommend using 2 layers of ribbed carpet. It catches gold, and gets rid of unecessary junk very well. The finished product is excellent.

Your teaching us every week is quite valuable to all of us, Thanks!!

I absolutely love watching your videos!! Keep up the great work!!! Much respect..

Wonderful Video, I am looking forward to the entire series.

Just saw your video on Facebook regarding moving to KZread to follow your content. Love watching your videos.

The joy you got from using the mega shovel to put dirt into your neon pink bucket gives me life.

First off I enjoyed the rainbow bucket… secondly you did quite well for having the paystreak underwater. Third I also liked you showed gadzee before the snail was CG added lol 4thly I really like the extended episodes and to see my name and the shoutout is much appreciated. Looking forward to the next episode thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼

Great video Chris. You and Gadzee make a great team. I can't wait to see the next episode.

I have followed you for a long time mate. Love your work and your videos!..

Great vid Chris ! Look forward to the next instalment

I love being a patreon member and get to see everything before here on y.t . I loved this so much as I laughed so hard I just had to watch this again 😁😆😅🤣😂

Did you end up making a part two to this? I can't remember seeing it. Just had to watch it again as it was really enjoyable. Cheers.

Enjoyed the show ! Looking forward to the next !

😂 One of the funniest KZreadr .A joy to watch

Thank you for the video, I truly enjoyed them.

The rocker box sounds like a steam locomotive lol.

I love all of your videos and find it all really impressive. But I am always most impressed by how your long sleeves always seem dry when you’ve got your hands in the creek and in water filled pans and buckets. I can’t wash my hands without rolling sleeves up. True talent

Great project! 👍 Living modestly, making modest gold, I think it can be done :-)

Awesome video Chris, always a pleasure to see you doing what we all love and/or wish we could do full time 😄 respectfully however, I feel obligated to tell you that your bucket is bright red, not bright green (given your aforementioned colorblindness, I wasn't sure if you knew or not for real so I just wanted to be sure I mentioned it)

That rocker box put a nice smile in your pan. Awesome!

Keep up the good work... Love watching you.

I love how you call your bucket a different color. I’m up to two 🤣

This is exactly the episode I wanted to watch! Cheers boys

Great video Chris. Can't wait for the next installment.

The one with the bright green bucket cracked me 😂, made me remember you are color blind.

I would enjoy the live stream posted on KZread. I think this video is one of the most enjoyable videos on gold I have seen on KZread. Looking forward to the rest of the series.

Nice cameo from Damo and Darren! Awesome stuff 😂

Fun stuff. I built a rocker box in 1987. I used it once. I'm going to dig it out. Sir you rock . Skake Gadzys hand form Wyoming. Blessings men

also loved the color blind joke and the low budget dyi Shaker box!

Gold always looking g good. That Smokey quarts boulder you found is bad ass. Lol. Thanks for sharing Chris and Mr Sweat pants

Have you done pt 2 yet? I can’t seem to find it.

I love the drastic difference between shovels. 😂

Leaving Facebook so I had to subscribe over here, thank you for your videos

Thats a very colorful bucket you've got there Chris.

The magnificent GAZTON!, and his magical SWEAT PANTS!

when he held the quartz egg up to the sky,i remembered KALI MA,,,,KALI MA SHAKTI DE.

The three things that any man needs in their tool kit are duct tape, zip ties (cable ties) and WD-40. If it moves but shouldn't, use duct tape, if it's not moving but it should, use the WD. If it needs to be joined, use the zip ties. Great video as usual. I look forward to seeing part 2.

That rainbow bucket, haha..

I lost at punching the tin plate with your ……..pick

I love how senior sweatpants dogging Parker snobble crying about not enough goldz,sad ,but I'm sure the discovery Channel will salt his pan😂

I love that bright "green" "yellow" bucket. That's orange/red in color

Gadsy good thing your there to keep him in line lol 😂

That smokey quartz is better than gold that day for sure!

Nice piece

Hi love gold hunting TV shows. Parker and crew. I'm in UK and wondering if Any river or stream with gravel like this place will be worth checking?

Awesome videos Chris

Another great episode!😊

Vision of you rythmicly washing away on the rocker, flatly singing Waltzing Matilda to Sr Sweaty droning away on a 1880's squeeze box.....

Gadzee is my favorite of your companion ! lol He's cool ! You guys are crazy but fun !

nice thank you for shareing the adventure.😊

I would buy an old man back T-shirt 😂. I loved this video, I always like your videos with the rocker box ❤

Love the Parker Schnabel parades hilarious 😂

1.8 million, sounds about the same as the prices of crap up for sale in Vancouver 😂

Chrissy and Gadzee = my Dreamteam ^^ Information and fun! Thanks, guys!

I think this was the best. Thank you.

I am new to prospecting it is my future retirement hobby the day I have to do this for an income it becomes a job and I will quit...hopefully that never happens as I enjoy it.

I love the color blind joke

You’re not colour blind, you just have a really cool colour changing bucket. 😂😂😂😂. Nice job by the way, the rocker box actually looks like fun.

That smoky quartz is worth some money too

OK Chris you have me sold. I'm buying a pan and making some sluicing contraption. Wish me luck.🎉

Good luck!

I think when people ask "what do you earn prospecting?" they are mostly thinking "what would I make prospecting?", it´s not personal. As in many things in life, the decision to "scratch with the chickens" or "soar with the eagles" is up to the individual, and you show (in your different videos) both potential ways to get a living.

It's more about the thrill of the hunt here in Maine USA! you're in an area with really rich gold history as with my area can produce a stray nugget but mostly specs and flakes, like all day for a gram

I’ve been giving you shit about your shirt but I’m pretty sure you know it’s probably not good . But I’ve been watching for probably 5- years or so “every vid “. Thank you for the badass info brother

Bright green bucket 🤣🤣 poor guy 😅

@ Chris or anyone who knows.... Recently I used a GARRETT PRO to find gold in the bench above a creek that had gold in it 40 years ago. It read 80+ (silver?) at most spots, some spots were 42+ (gold?) All were 8"+ deep from the top ground level. Could the gold have originated from the bench and washed down to the creek? Could it be worth my time and effort to dig these targets up? 40 years ago, I found flat, confetti sized gold there but a hurricane washed it all away.

27:11 for magic gold hands👌 great vidleage

Have you tested Top of the Rocker vs Bottom of the Rocker for gold retention? Which captures better/more - smaller/larger? I recall you've made mention of the results being not as efficient as most other methods, but for cheap and easy - down and dirty....

Thanks for sharing your adventures Chris. This is a very interesting series. The smokey quartz crystal is huge. Maybe that is why the snail's and wombat's are so large there. Nearly at 200,000 subscribers. Well done. Cheers

WOW that Golden Smile got to Love it 😁. SKK .

Awesome & Thank you!👍

Good job men. Cheers from Morrison Colorado

Hello Chris, I know it's all fun y/t makes money,but if you classify on the excavation spot using you know what , it would be so much easier and faster. I am looking forward to seeing your results in a week's time, regards George

This might be a little cheeky but.. could you pump water to a 10-20l container that then gravity feeds into one of those. The higher you have that bucket the higher the pressure.
