Thanks Sean, what a great idea. I can think of several different ways to use it. Have a great day.

My grand dad used to make his own bate pumps using PVS tubing, all thread, and a tennis ball. They worked great. I love this kind of DIY stuff Thank You for showing it Sean!

You Beaut!!!! I was thinking of a way to do just that. It was hurting tho, (my brain..... what's left of it). Now I can toss it together no worries, thanks to you. Cheers mate :)

Another home run thank you. I’m definitely going to build one.

I didn't notice the flies until you said something; now I can't unsee them. 🤣 Great video, very inventive. Cheers from Cartersville Georgia U.S.👍👍✌

Very cool idea I was going to add to the end of my Nipper Pump but now I’ll do that great idea Mate

Nice project Sean. I'm gonna have to make me one, I sure could use it for.my gold back packing adventures...Thanks & cheers!🤠⚒⛏🍻

You wouldn’t believe how many times I’ve gone to build one then got down the creek and thought I need that pump attachment🤦‍♂️ I’ll get there one day 😆👍🏻

They are definitely a great idea Sean ,thanks for showing that ,i am thinking seriously of making one ,i have my own device added to the yabbie pump, but i think those ones are a much better idea ,cheers ,ohh and i might make mine pretty just by spray painting it ,lol ,thanks mate for sharing .

i’m not sure why this was on my ‘notifications’,, but i’m glad i watched it! this really gives me some ideas on how to find out what’s at the bottom of a few waterfall pools. thanks!

Great job my friend. That is awesome 🤙

Great idea mate!✨👍🏻

Nice improvement 👍 way better than the wide open hole at the end of the original pump🍻

Nice tutorial. Thanks

thats a talent i would love to have mate. thanks for the video

At first I didn't quite understand why you didn't glue the main body, but then I learnt real fast when you showed how to clean out the whole attachment, much easier than undoing the hose clamp like I thought was the way it was to be done. This is a really simple, cheap & easy to build and usable tool. Thank you for sharing this 👍 I've found Liquid Nails softens in water, especially if it's warm, so I'd use plumbers silicon to secure the small diameter suction pipe into the cap.

I usually just use fibreglass resin but I didn’t have any on hand so I improvised with liquid nails, it’s not to seal the hole and pipe, it’s main purpose is to hold the pipe away from the second trap so it doesn’t get blocked up.

Busted knuckles Prospecting Silicon should do the same as fibreglass, just not so rigid but I understand what your getting at. Good basic idea but I would have mucked it up if you didn't explain it so well.

love dyi useful info

For the nozzle, instead of an endcap, I reckon maybe a 2" to 1" reducer would make a sturdier connection. Just need to ream the inside lip a hair to slide the 1" needle tip past that adapter into the trap. Also, going to try rigging a mason jar as the bottom trap so you can see whats going on and when youre full up, then just thread off and dump. We'll see how it goes when I build it. Thanks!

Cool good design 👍

I like it!!!

Genius 😎

Awesome video mate 👍

Cool thanks for that A must have ay Cheers Crouch

i had one like that with a mason jar cap on it so i could put a big plastic mayonase jar on there, fills up rather quickly. have to keep emptying, so i put a clear hose on there with some adapters and into a five gallon jug, gonna try it out at the creek today, i saw a kit you could buy, so i made one.

hey an improvment you could is on the bottom tube. a flange on the in side of trap and on out side of trap then you won't need liquid nails.

Thanks for sharing mate love your work. Can i ask why aren't you using this more often in you more recent videos when you use your yabby pump? I thought it was a great idea when i saw it so i built one very similar to yours but without the front snuffer style vacuum nozzle & trap. the trap in the under side works well on mine without the snuffer style front trap & expels very little to no gold/debris when evacuating the water in the pump. I'm only a beginner at prospecting but enjoy making stuff out of scrap. I was nutting out your design & i'm thinking your suction draw length needs to be 2-3 times longer than your snuffer style vacuum nozzle for the debris to clear the vacuum nozzle & gold/debris trap opening. OR you could take the nozzle tip off the bottom & away from the debris before you come to full draw allowing debris to be flushed clear of the nozzle & above the debris trap. PS keep up the great videos mate.

Hey bud, this is an awesome job just about to build a gold trap like yours only I am goind to set it up like your crevice pump. . . ..A few mods if that okay but will keep you in the loop

Nice

I like this I just don't know what a yabbie pump is. I am in Texas and I can not ever remember hearing of this.

For a better seal you need to sand the edges.

Did i miss something? What about the stainless steel pipe. Where does it come into play far as adding it to the pump?

@BustedknucklesProspecting

The stainless pipe is actually a yabbie/ bait pump from any fishing store.

what about the actual pump end? All I see is you attaching a silver tube. Did you make the pump to go down inside that?

It looks like David has been using it to extract his nuggets😂👍✌

Ok, but how did you make the plunger? It was never shown.

The hand pump you are referring to is called a bait pump and it’s used by fishermen to suck live baits from the sandy coastline. You can find them at any fishing shop like BCF.

You didn't show us the pump end?

This was ok, but for the women that watch this you did not say the size of the pipe being used and how long you cut each piece of pipe. You did not show the top part or how you assembled the top part. So this was great for guy's who already know this stuff but not for women who are trying to learn.
