    Getting Back Into It. Whatzit?

    Back in the 1950's I was in an old grade school. There were poles with a metal hook on the end they used to open a latch and pull open an upper row of widows in a class room to let the heat out it it got hot. The end does not look the same but it I would think it was once on a pole.

    Button ID, what do you see?

    Sometimes shining a light at a low angle creates shadows that highlight and raise features. You might want to give that a try

    Maybe a little help for those with back problems.

    After an hour of hunting I am looking for a place to sit down to rest my back. I learned to dig up the targets while standing up. If I do need to get on my knees It helps to have a 30" shovel with a D handle I can use as a lever to get back up. 72 now. When I first started detecting it was...

    Stay OUT of Old Mines

    We left with huge chunks of clear crystalline salt that you could see through. Imbedded in the salt was ancient Seaweed and air bubbles with seawater trapped inside from 400 million years ago. It was mind Boggling to have that. The Exposure of the specimens to our environment and humidity...

    Stay OUT of Old Mines

    My brotherinlaw worked in a Detroit Salt Mine years ago. Once a year they had a family day and relatives could tour the mine. We did the tour and it was incredible. The only way in and out is a horizontal shaft that had a personal lift that could take no more then 8 at a time. All the pick up...

    Stay OUT of Old Mines

    In College I majored for several years in Geology. This was in the early 1970's in an active mining district. Fellow students and I did explore a 1860 hard rock basalt mine shaft in the copper country. Very interesting. Veins of Pure copper and crystals were still embedded in the mine walls...

    Disappointment Right Out Of The Box…D2

    Disappointment Right Out Of The Box…D2

    My new unit came with two bolts, washers and nuts. Also the 9" coil I recieved Monday had 2 sets of fasteners snd a lower shaft rod. I don't forsee the need for extra parts but I did loose a nut once on another unit. So stuff can happen. Local hardware stores here have nylon bolts and nuts
