Enjoyed your video Jeff, and have to say that your sluice clean-out was very healthy looking! Speaking of sluice's ..... was thinking about your Naming query. Two that immediately popped up was "Box-Zilla" or in a similar vein, "Sluice-Zilla". Or maybe it's the great-great grandson of a Long Tom named "Tom Thumb".
