One thing for sure....

I can always count on this hobby to give me a laugh! You see, I repaired the shoulder strap on my AT-MATEY. So I decided to go to one of my nearby tot-lots to try it out.

I geared up and after a couple minor adjustments, I ground balanced and started swinging. Was very comfortable! A successful repair! 😊

I took one step, maybe two. Got this exceptionally clear signal. I said wow! That was quick!

I usually call my shots, I said, "quarter", before I dug. After all, tot-lot, pretty much a surface hit, a high squeak.

I scraped a few wood chips aside this is what I saw staring up at me;

Much to my embarrassment, I busted out laughing!!!! RIGHT OUT LOUD!!! Embarrassing? Because there were a few people hanging around this tot lot.

I moved across the schoolyard, after a few sweeps to be sure. When it was all quiet again, away from people. I dug this coin out of my pocket and started giggling again.

I wasn't fooled...I *KNEW* what I had found! It just struck me as hilarious 😂 ! Go to a tot lot to test my strap and this pops up!!!

Here's the other side.......

And...the rest ....

At the very least....a very interesting walk!!

Thanks for taking time to peek!!

What a fun read. Thanks for sharing this funny find, Sir WHADI. I would like to know what strap you have. I could really use one on my max.

Yes Milady, I'll endeavor to explain.

I made this strap myself but I'm sure there are plenty out there.

What I did was take one of those "posture fixing braces" (common on tv). It was doing nothing but sitting in an old box.

So, I cut off a hook from an old plastic hanger, mounted it to the shaft of my Detector, using the adjustment holes already there. Then, I got one of those exercise straps for making 💪. Connected the 2 ends to a corner of the shoulder strap on the vest. Loop the rubber tube around the hook and viola!

Gotta admit...I couldn't walk my usual 3-4 hours without it!!

Hope that helps!

Yes and no. I am not good at visualizing anything. I’m stuck at the plastic hanger hook being attached. But I have a place to start. Thanks
