Hey Steve,

Thanks for all the hard work and effort you put into this post as well as this great forum! I feel I am one step closer to that first nugget. 

Hey Mitchel,

I have played with the mig several times the owner of the mig took initiative on this one.  The next one I will my welds and more straight!

Hey Mark, nice pick! I often find that one of the more rewarding aspects of prospecting is the fabrication of items that you think will make life easier in your quest for yellow.  Is that hardened steel? If so what process did you use to weld it?

Yes its hardened and tempered. I learned how to do that from YouTube videos. It was then welded with a mig. 

 Hello everyone

I'm new here to The Forum and to metal detecting. 

Inspired by all the Rock pics I saw at the gold show in Phoenix I decided to create my own. Take a look and see what you think. It was made from a $10 Hammer I picked up at Harbor Freight.
