Sunday was my cleanup day for the previous weekends trip out to Oallen.
Setup the miller table, screened the concentrate to -30 mesh and started to feeding the table. Started off looking quite good. About 30 minutes in, AJ, my better half asked me to move a 25kg block of stainless steel, got instructions to move it to the shed. Me, being the good obedient servant, did so. Picked it up off the floor in the spare room and ventured outside and made a big F up. Tripped over the garden hose and dropped it smack in the middle of the Miller table, smashed the slate table into 6 pieces.
BUM BUM BUM BUM BUM ---- BUM(or words to that effect, translated for those younger ears)
Needless to say, I now don't have a Miller table, don't think I'll repair it, too hard to get a good piece of slate.
After a half hours drive around the block several times, I calmed down enough to finish the clean up with a pan. Oallen yielded 1.42g.
Shivan, I'll be calling on you for some tips with a blue bowl, bought one today from the States, should be here next week.
