Alaska Mining Superstore

[Steve Herschbach]

I’m up visiting my old shop in Alaska. We are doing a massive expansion of the mining department into its own building. The idea is to create a mining and metal detecting superstore. The doors are actually open but the reality is we are still stocking up, doing the signage, and just generally getting ready for the busy season that starts in April. It’s close enough now though and since I’m here I thought I’d give you all a preview of all the neat toys on display.

To work there with all that different forms of mining equipment around me this is what Heaven has got to look like.

 Thanks Steve so much for the show of so much great equipment in one place.

Super impressive, Steve! I am kind of glad that it's not close to where I live. I would be there every day and spend all my money...! One of those stores where you walk in and think about whatever you see: oh yes I really really need that!

I have to ask.

When I was working in Alaska, I'm guessing in the early to mid '80s, I picked up a T-Shirt from a mining supply store in Anchorage that had in large letters "SUCK ROCKS" and in smaller letters "with a Keene Gold Dredge". My wife coveted that shirt and it went with her when we parted. I missed that shirt (I guess more than the ex) and went over to the Keene Engineering store in in LA to see about getting another one. Their answer, was Nope, only available in Alaska.

Any chance that was your store? Would love to get another.

Cheers
