OklaOutdoors: DIY Gold-Panning Gear Plans
A free library of printable plans, 3D-printable files, and field notes for recreational prospectors who build their own equipment.
Field notes
The project combines printable construction documents with browser-previewable STL and 3MF models, giving hobbyists both conventional shop plans and digital fabrication files. Listed examples include a vortex sluice, a gold bowl for cleaning up concentrates, and display bowls designed by the site owner. Its field-note format records what failed or changed on the river, while build and find submissions create a lightweight archive of reader projects and prospecting stories.
