Thinking of selling my Proline 4" dredge. I bought it new from the manufacturer back in 2005. Probably been used 15-20 times or so. Everything is in tip top shape. Has the 5.5 HP motor and the T-80 compressor with all hoses, regulator and reserve tank. Also have a trailer that it fits on perfectly (4 x 8 feet). Proline sells this dredge new for $3680 without all the breathing accessories. Trailer was another $350. Im into the entire set-up at around $3700-$3800. Looking for $2200, pull up, hook up, drive away. I can take pics of the dredge on request. Im on the far southside of Chicago....obviously local pick up only! Below is a link to the model I have.

    will you "accidentally" forget to remove the latest gold finds from it?

    Sure, all 30 cents worth! And thanks for the "endorsement" Rick. Here is a pic of most (95%+) of all the gold I have recovered with this machine. Doesnt look like much, but when you consider this was all taken from a creek about an hour west of Indianapolis, even the most hard core prospector would be impressed!

    I sure wish I was in the market for some big time treasure hunting.

    Thanks, but before you quit your job and buy property there, please understand this pic was the result of perhaps 10-15 trips down to that creek. Lets guesstimate 100+ hours of labor, perhaps $500 worth of gas, and about $3800 worth of mining equipment to extract what you see above. Total weight of all those nuggets? 4.6 grams! Not a for profit venture to say the least!!!
