Does anyone have a plan to get the new DW3 drywasher?

I was the 3rd person to order one from Mark Keene. I talked to him a couple of days ago and he said they should ship soon. They have been making a few improvements to them.

If it was season for me, I probably would have been the 4th order. Looking forward to hear your thoughts on it when you get a chance to test it out!

Too heavy, IMHO. My new dry sluice weighs half as much. Keene's probably has a higher thruput, though mine's better as an exploration tool. I took mine all apart after the patent application, and am now building a new one that's lighter, and more compact. Mine also recovers gems, dry. I finally defeated the granular convection problem in dry gem recovery. Only took me 12 years to do it...LOL

Will do! I have 6 inches of snow here now, so it may be a while.

Jim, weird weather when you have snow, and I don't! Never would have believed that.

Yep it is an arctic front that hit eastern states hard. It was 0 degrees here this morning and 6 inches of snow. It's actually warmer in Albuquerque than Roswell now.

We haven't seen zero all winter. It's been around 8 this week. Highs in the mid-30's
