Bill66413 1 Posted March 21 I’ve seen several different picks on YouTube being used which is preferred and why? Also I have a question about super magnets. How big are their dimensions and lift strength. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fredmason 1,128 Posted Tuesday at 09:58 PM I like the medium size Hermit Pick....light, strong and does the job! However your just as well ask what is the best ice cream flavor or which truck is best. fred 4 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pairadiceau 125 Posted Wednesday at 12:37 AM Fred hit the nail on the head, opinions regarding the choice of picks are kind of like ears most people have at least two. Or something like that.. I too like the Hermit Pick, it has been my to tool of choice for digging up at least a million bullets. Great tool. Regarding super magnets, there are many online retailers who sell them, (Google super magnet), they come in many different shapes, sizes, and strengths. I found an old hard drive magnet and the kids used it for magnet fishing, I think it would easily lift twenty five pounds. I know it took a lot to remove it from my truck tool box, easiest way was to slide it to the side and reduce the area of attraction. At some point I dropped it and it broke into two pieces, now one lives on my pick. Good Hunting! 2 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill66413 1 Posted Wednesday at 06:46 PM Thanks, I couldn't put a name to the Hermit. When I googled the name it came right up but when I tried " prospector picks " the Hermit didn't show up. Apparently I just needed the name. So thanks again . 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
