We’ve got to figure out a yoke for it. Not sure why it wasn’t with the bell. I didn’t take a close look at it. So, I have no information.
Things we all learnt today-Yoke

No not those lovely looking yokes.

We're talking bell yokes now, something that WD is trying to figure out.
So the Pepper had tilted the head wondering why WD needs to be figuring it out.:dontknow:

Now the yoke needs to hang and there are double yolks (one down-one up)

So after figuring this out I will post a yoke.

Now with close eyes I have figured out that WD's new bell has a yoke.

I see some lovely look design along the sound bow or sound ring.
(Oh WD this would be buying a yoke to rock your yoke-you just need the finishing wood feller to build a little wishing well)
I'm sure he's going to thank me...:laughing7:

Well I loaded up the Max and drove him down to the DR Make Me Poorer.
Lovely lady knows how to milk the heart strings of a pet owner.

I really hope it works to settle his allergies down a tad.
She said this has been the worst year for pollen and dogs having issues.

Please illuminate me about storage.
Well... 2x2 plastic flips... NON pvc... OR 2x2 cardboard and Mylar flips are "standard" in storage.., and a minimum if you want to preserve them.

I recommend you do this with at least that bottom one.

Well, I spent some quality time with the Nokta Accupoint pinpointer today. Here's my thoughts (just in case somebody gives a 💩).

First off, the discrimination is incredible! Every once on a while the Legend mistakes a bottle cap for a good target. With the Accupoint set to 'no iron mode' it doesn't make a peep when you graze it over the target. No more digging those stupid things! (that is; if I carry it instead of the carrot)

Secondly, and maybe a bit more important; I was wrong about the depth. It seemed a tad better than the carrot in the damp park I used it in the first couple of times, but the park I went to today was much drier soil and the carrot had about an inch better depth than the Accupoint.

It will be a VERY handy tool in trashy iron sites but isn't up to replacing the King Carrot for general use.

Them's my two cents.
