Popular Post Tiftaaft Posted February 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2021 My buddy, and member of this forum FlySAR has been providing ring finding service for years in the Portland Metro Area. As I learned many ropes from him, I became the RingFinder rep for the Olympia WA area before my move to Houston. Below is the link to a video posted by the Oregonian On-line newspaper on one of his ring finds. I hope you enjoy the ending as much as I did... Congrats Del, I'm humbled and honored to call you my friend. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

normmcq Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 That was a great find and video to document it! Congratulations to your friend. There is nothing like finding something that means so much to someone and returning it to them. Norm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvpopeye Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Nice story. You CAN go detecting in the snow ! As long as you don't want to dig up the solid part... Here's another snow story. I found a ring about 10 years ago using my ancient Rat Shack / Bounty Hunter 6kHz detector. A friend asked me if I could help her go find her diamond. She had lost it in the snow and "thought" it might have been when she took off a glove to unlock the door ...... I found a few targets , but no visuals , just a bunch of ice and chunks of hard packed snow...and way too cold to go fishin'. We picked up as much of the "beepy chunks" as we could fit into a plastic tote and took it home , her husband dug in the ice for a while without luck , fired up his salamander (torpedo) heater and pointed it at the tub....... an hour later there it was shining up from the bottom of that tub of water ! I think we just got lucky but she sure was happy. Hubby got all the hugs..........LOL Even the old tech still goes beep if you put it over the treasaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar ! OK , and if it's not too deep. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
