Worked on my four foot drop riffle highbanker some today. I just have to attach the legs, drill the water holes for the spray bars, seal it and waterproof (again), and add 
the height adjuster for the grizzly. Some features:

Vortex matting under the grizzly as an 'inspection mat' you can check while running.

50 Drop riffles, including 25 double drops that have a smaller groove inside the main drop riffle for retaining fine gold. 

2 stage system using 3/16 punch plate for 12 inches at the beginning of the sluice to allow the fine gold to settle out. I might add another stage of 12 inches of punch plate with 4 mesh if I am getting any fines in the riffles past the initial 13 inches.
