4 MDnoob and others, this is how i built them. 2X---1/8-23" copper rods 17"-6". 4X---3/4" copper end caps 2X---3/4"-5"copper pipe.
1. Drill holes in the center of all the end caps that will just let your wire though.
2. cap off both ends of each of the two copper pipes. (you have your handles)
3. bend and cut wire to specifide lenghth. insert short end of wire in holes in caps.
Hold 6in-1ft apart slant 5-10 degrees downward

? ? ? ?JBlack ? ? ? With all due respect. You went way above and beyond what i was intending.
? All i was stating, is that it's up to the individual whether they do or don't.
It's their right to choose. And if it has no direct adverse affect on you. Then they are to be left, to do as they please.

? ? ?As far as the ?" scam products" ? There again, it is there choice.
?If some want to go to the casinos, and take a chance on losing a large portion of money.
It is not for me to say ?" Shame, Shame, Shame ? Bad, Bad, Bad "
? ? Besides i think i might have paid for one or two of those casinos. I should probably get head billing on there billboards.
? ? ?If we want to help some one, lets do it when they're down and ?really need it. Not interfer in their normal every day process of life.
 

I just want to know it a coat hanger will work AT ALL before I try it and make a fool out of myself! Thanks. Matt
 

I apologize for starting a topic that is clearly sensitave to some. I personly think that dowsing works, but that is just my stance.
I recomend we end this topic for now until another newbie kicks the fire ant mound. for those of you who are open minded you have the measerments.to all you others. HH :( :( :-\
 

8) I work for an electric company and one of our electricians called the shop for our buried (sp) line locator so he could follow a buried pipe from the early 1900s to find a damaged jbox - well by the time i got there with it this guy had fashioned two solid copper #4 wire into dowsing rods and found that box within 1ft of where they crossed - so i have built two set of these just for kicks and experimenting - hell it sure gives the neighbors something to talk about - and it adds another dimension to the whole md'ing thing...... if you read up on dowsing they say you can find just about anything with them ........ (i dont know about that) but there is a bit of science envolved ...... you can ridicule me if u want i dont really care ------ its cool ;)
Also the customer was quite happy 'cause it saved him some bucks in labor.

You mean I coulda just went to the dollar store, and bought a couple coat hangers I wouldnt have had to spend so much on a medal detector? WOW what a sucker I am, I guess whites has been pulling the wool over our eyes for a LONG time...hmm who woulda known. :D
 

You know, Dowsing with copper could really work especially if it's done during a storm when there are more electrons in the air :o. They would become more sensitive. ;D

yup! stand on your roof, point them straight up and stuff will find you!
 

Don't know if the targets will jump out of the ground. But somethings likely to start jumping.
 

my girl friend said she had some luck with dowsing rods!!!ha ha ;D
but i think i will stick with the horny toad to show me the way :)
 

I am a electrician. Lets do some eclectrical theory. A current passes through an electical wire cause induction (whether small or great) . Wires in a junction box can cancel out each others induction or increase the induction. Induction is a MAGNETIC FIELD. You ever stick a screwdriver to a transformer and see it stick. Have you ever heard an electrician cursing because he stuck it into a hot panel and now its magnetic. SO I STAND CORRECTED if you ever see a coin in the ground hooked to a live electical line especially a linemans high voltage line it is possible that it couold be dowsed with metal rods. I however have never ran into a coin or gold hooked to a high voltage electrical line.

Excellent deduction... about induction.​
 

sigh.

I believe there's stuff out there we still don't understand. For example - I believe there have been cases where psychics have been eerily accurate - especially in cases where they have helped law enforcement solve crimes. (in fact I have seen unbelievable things myself! maybe I'll share them here someday)

I don't know why some people can dowse, but I believe some people can - I am not one of those people.

Below is a pair of Spanish dip needles I own... (7 1/2 inches long) they are simply sterling silver rods, hammered and notched at the ends... you can buy the silver rods from a jewelry supply store. You can also make rods using coat hangers...

For the record, I don't disbelieve in dowsing. I do disbelieve in some long range locators that have been sold to treasure hunters.

Keep an open mind and a closed wallet, and give dowsing a try -

;) kramer (sp) from the Seinfeld episode when they were watching the thanksgiving parade at the dentists house . dentist to cramer (sp) "you like woody woodpecker"
"yah' i like him" why do u like him ----"because he's a trouble maker"...........i used to do martial arts , ride bike for 1000's of miles , built my own ham radio antennas and talked all over the world , fished , sang in bands ...... i always said if u picked your nose for a hobby somebody would come along and tell you - that you were doing it wrong and try to ruin yer' fun............heck i did bonsai for awhile .... the guys on those forums were brutal ~ worse than anything on here....... Go do your dowsing its fun . dont worry about anybody else . now i got guys that i know that have 1000 dollar whites and try to compare my ace 250 to them ..... thats like buying a 2000 $ bass guitar to play in a thrash band........ :P DOWSERS RULE :o LEFTYBASS
OH YAH' ACE 250 RULES ~
