Don't say it, you told me so!
First nice day we've had so I took my Surfmaster PI (now nicknamed iron magnet) to the beach just to test it out. I missed low tide by a few hours but I just wanted to test it at the water line and in the surf just a bit. I didn't find much but the good news is I got about 100 rust encrusted old nails out of the way for the next guy. Will I eventually be able to determine good from bad by the sound? I haven't gotten a long handled scoop yet, I was working with a homemade hand held and I think I'm going to have to get quite a large scoop. Seemed to be pinpointing off center i bit?? Without disc. like my DFX can I cut out some of the iron with the sensitivity? I have to say it is sensitive. I was digging brad sized nail very deep. Looking forward to any input. Rich.
