Title: Today`s(22/10/09) tip for any "Newbie" Post by: Stig(The) on October 22, 2009, 05:27:10 PM `Newbie`....If you are searching a lot of loose ploughed ground?..... .... ... .. .try this little tip i heard through the grapevine:
To search an area known for having a lot of nails and other ferrous trash, rake the area first, pulling out most (or all) of the nails/iron. Make a "magnetic rake" out of a 4-prong garden rake and cow magnets (available at any feed store). Attach the magnets with small hose clamps. ;) Apparently all the professional & experienced detectorists use this method,not tried it myself,so let the forum know "How You Get On" ::) Happy Raking ! ;D Don`t forget to Log on tomorrow for the next,not to be missed, "Todays tip for any "Newbie" ;) ;) Title: Re: Today`s(22/10/09) tip for any "Newbie" Post by: 150aceboy on October 22, 2009, 09:05:21 PM Good tip Stig ;), will give it a try if i ever get on the plouged stuff ;D, cheers mate, Paul ;)
