That's a beauty for sure!

The GRG scoop is my all time favorite. Mainly because the sides are square and not rounded. It makes it easier for me to scrape/scoop a pile of dirt on flat ground. I bought several of them from Rob a few years ago because the hook at the top seems to always break off. I like your fix for the hook fix Mike. I have a few broken that are now going to be fixed and used again. Yours looks good too Doc! I'll have to get one and give it a go. Now I just need to find time to get out and prospect.

Incredible piece! That must take a lot of time to make.

Thanks Skip! Had to work but got back from a week trip to Maui the day before my birthday. My son and I took over an Equinox and had a great time detecting the beaches. We didn't get anything big, but found a small beach erosion spot and got a couple hundred coins, a small sterling silver ring, a bunch of fishing weights, and a handful of pull tabs.

Sorry, but I won't have time to get it out until this weekend. I'll let you know as soon as I get it out and start it. It should be fine, but if it doesn't run, a carb rebuild kit is cheep. I've never seen on for sale at a price this low.

I have been thinking about re-joining the club now that my son is getting more interested in prospecting. What do I need to do to re apply? Edit: Never mind, I followed the link and sent an email.

Sorry not to get back with a price sooner. I would like to sell it for $300. I haven't started it for a few years so the float and jets might need to be cleaned (or maybe not). I'll get it out of the shed this weekend and start it up. It's got a Briggs and Stratton engine. I think I bought it for $500 from a guy that had used it a couple time. I used it once to crush a fat speci and planned on using it for sampling on a property I used to have permission to prospect. It may be expensive to ship because of the oil and gas (which I can drain for shipping, but I'm pretty busy right now). Let me know if either of you are still interested.

Just got back from a day in the mountains. I'll touch base with you tomorrow.

I have a Keane impact mill that sits on a bucket. I think it's the RC1. It's hardly been used. I would sell it for a great price. Let me know if you are interested. It's in Sacramento.

That is sweet! Good on you!

That's an impressive haul!

I sure wouldn't want to be stuck on the wrong side of that gully washer.

Thank you. I (not me) feel better.
