Yep......If I tried hunting in that I'd be good for all of 5 minutes, maybe.

Too wet, too hot, too damp, too dry, too dark, so there's little time to actually hunt it seems.
Though when the mother nature aligns with the detecting gods, this seems to happen.
"oh honey could you....."

Good morning!☕️ Anyone heard from ARC? He’s mia.

Was there a sale on rum? Or perhaps an interesting encounter with ICE agents?

You need to check the jail roster, hospital admissions and obits .

Or he will be here any moment to express his displeasure with my post

I got that unit for less that $1K brand new last spring shipped direct from manufacturer already have 2 riding mowers to pull it with. My newest mower Craftsman YTS400 set me back about $1100 brand new on a super special deal from Sears closing a location. That photo is Agri-fab stock. Mine is under snow right now.

That's the story of my life, brother, but it's more like "honey, when you have a second..."

 

[DizzyDigger]

Thought I'd share this pic with youse all...nothing special about it, except...

1) It's NOT raining, and
2) that's actual sunshine...

Those things are awesome. Cleans the yard, chops up the leaves into tiny bits, and makes great mulch. The hoses on that one need to be trimmed though -- they'll drag and abrade and puncture hanging down on the ground like that.

Time for a swim

 

[Oregon Viking]

Inland a bit I made a friend ! There were three and I decided to cut our visit short.

 

[pepperj]

So my auction buys were a tad strange.
Bought a cleaner for 3D parts.
Paid $36.90 so there's room for a good profit.

Seems to have good agitation and it started at 11C

 

[pepperj]

I bought 4 of these "pot warmers"

Picking these up I hoped they worked. Skungie looking rigs.
The owner says "you do know that these aren't pot warmers?"
Crape makers
They're worth over a $1000 each.
Yup
So I plugged one in and started to carve off crap.

So I turned it on heated up fast to 350F them I maxed it up to 567F.
1.5 hours later this puppy is still 196.6F
Well made cast.

I wonder what the kitchen looked like?🤣
I'm going to be keeping 1 or 2. Clean up the 4 to shiny, oil the cast down again and sell.
