This weekend was a big success. We found some nice gold, and the machine did very well after the riffle upgrades. We have a few more issues to work out before we build tooling, but we are getting closer to each test. The only real issue was that the rear motor shield failed. We are back to the first design, but all the other upgrades are impressive successes. The recovery was terrific; we brought back some of the tailings, and they were clean. The new adjustable hopper support worked effortlessly and did not impede the riffle action. It is so cool that I can pick it up with one hand and carry it down the trail. 25 pounds is not bad for a machine that can move easily 1/2 a yard per hour plus. We will put a video on this trip as soon as we have time. ... See MoreSee Less

I just heard from a very old friend, Bill Bear, who worked with my grandfather and my Dad "Jerry Keene". The first fire system was by Jerry and Bill to help protect President Nixon's house in Thousand Oaks in 1961. This happened so quickly during a big fire in Thousand Oaks, and they used Nixon's pool to save his home. We may have invented these home pool fire-fighting systems back in 1961. This company has a lot of history in this company. ... See MoreSee Less

We know of dozens of homes that we helped save in this last fire.

Fires, at one point, were all around us. We could see the smoke and flames on the hilltops around us. Fortunately, none of our crew lost homes or anything else. Many are not so lucky.

I hope your units saved quite a few. I was just thinking of that when I seen the start of the fires. 🙏

Hopefully there is a CARB solution to find the appropriate pump engines that can be used in California! More of these systems please.

I pray that you, your families and your business are okay 🤠❤️🇺🇸
