How to Build Yourself a Henderson Pump - A STEP-BY-STEP TUTORIAL

It is done! For Christmas, my dad, bless him, gave me a voucher for custom-making me a Henderson gold pump. Awesome gift! Since he is a very skilled handyman, I knew it would turn out great (it did - works like a charm). And since it did turn out so great, I made a tutorial for you. Step by step, with photos to lead you through. Hope it helps.

HENDERSON PUMP-TUTORIAL

Unfortunately, my panning realms are currently covered in snow and ice. As soon as that has melted a bit, I will put it to the field test, as the water levels are still low, which will enable me to access areas I won't get to in the summer.

Something for the Ladies...

Got your own mad gold-digging (literally!) lady at home? Well, then you might want to check out this cute little pendant here. Alas, 51$ is not really a steal, but I know I would like one under my Christmas tree...

On a different note: what I actually want for Christmas is a proper pump (like the ones I was allowed to borrow from my Scottish goldpanning buddies ;). Should work out, fingers crossed - dad has bought stuff and is working on it. With that, I can then take my winter panning to a whole new level, haha. No snow here anyway, so I might as well...
