Help Identify ' Flat Spike '
strick replied to GlazedTofu's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
When the Welsh miners played out the coal fields here they moved to Washington to mine coal over there and as you say named it after the place they had came from last. That makes us brethren lol What's the writing say on the object? Strick -

Re Circulating Sluice Set Up
strick replied to strick's topic in Gold Panning, Sluicing, Dredging, Drywashing, Etc
Thanks fellas for the replies. Watched the video. Interesting set up Clark I think I might try two containers as we dont have that much room on the porch... Coyote the modified wheel barrel is a great idea. I have one on it's last leg that can be modified. Klunker thanks for the insight 'm gonna look at some different set ups. We've been using Lisa's minnie Keene sluice. strick -
The wife and I sometimes like to bring home some dirt from the foot hills and run it on through a recirculating sluice at our leisure...(after work on our front porch with a beer) if you get the picture. The one I built several years ago is getting tired and I was wondering how others set theirs up? is there a better sluice set up already made from the factory? I've been hearing about this gold cube sluice? any and all recommendations are appreciated. The pic below (copied off the internet) is kinda like how we had ours set up.. strick

Would You Do It, Down Under For A Fist Full?
strick replied to Gerry in Idaho's topic in Minelab Equinox Forum
He does some great videos. The ones he used to do for you were works of art....Too bad Minelab quit paying people like Ryan who made youtube videos as I believe it gets a lot of folks excited about the hobby... strick -
I Think This Is My First Gold Of 2019
strick replied to Mike Hillis's topic in Metal Detecting For Jewelry
Nice..... I got the gold jewelry bug just looking at your photos strick -
Nice detailed report...I'm starting to get the fever again strick

Nice find I would be happy with it however it does not appear to be the real deal due to the discoloration I'm seeing. The iron ring is not very encouraging as well. I've found silver items well over 100 years old that are still marked 925 or they say "sterling" Of course I hope I'm wrong...and I am wrong most of the time...at least that what my wife tells me strick

I Got Yer Newbie Question Right Here!
strick replied to jinmon's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
Get a gold scratch tester for your jewelry finds. They should have designed the pro find 35 so you can find the on /off button easier without having to fumble around looking for it. Still prefer the carrot. strick -

How To Tell The Difference Between Gold Rings And Trash???
strick replied to Bhogg's topic in Minelab Equinox Forum
Gold and trash sound the same however sometimes gold sounds better then trash and sometimes trash sounds better then gold. This is just the way it is. strick -
Too many people around here to even think about using a shovel although I have one of those nice lesche T handled shovels I will only use it out in the field. Prefer the Lesche hand digger with the serrated edge on the left side. It stays hidden in my pouch till I need it. Been wanting one of those Model 31's for a while and just ordered one. strick

Nice going there Lunk! Silver and Gold all in one hunt. The way I look at it is every park has gold it's just a matter of finding it. Just look for the bedrock strick

Interesting thred...even though I understand virtually nothing you guys are saying I get the feeling that it feels good and I already know that my detector is fast and finds lots of stuff which is all I really need to know. Having been trained in a medical field all I can say is that those graphs...if they were an ECG would represent something that is about to die strick

To Clean Or Not To Clean - This Is The Question
strick replied to Lobo Lover's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
Yep I'll look them up first then if not worth anything they get cleaned...Cabin Fever has the best method for cleaning coins I've seen. His Indians are amazing looking. I wonder what kind of camera he is using to get those nice close ups? Inquiring minds want to know strick -

My goal is to just get out and detect more this year. Last year ended up with lots of projects I wanted to get done...now there almost done. Another thing that I need to start doing is more intensive researching for relic spots. I've been meaning to try some water hunting in areas only accessible by boat. I got my boat ready last year but then never took it out. Another thing is to spend more time learning the Nox. happy hunting strick
