Monochrome Monday Guessing Game
Hey Y'all
Welcome to Another Week
And Monochrome Monday
Now I do NOT use this every day, but I do use it often...
This one might be a bit harder...
I was hearing from a lot of folks saying the last ones were a bit on the easy side.
Wonder what the results will be on this one...
Giving loads of clues this week.
Really getting easier now..
Way too easy, right?
Just about to the reveal
Hope you did good this week!
Have an outstanding week friends.
Yep my metal detector!
Thanks for stopping by!

The black and white photos make it look like a photos from a crime scene. :)
Since I've never actually used a metal detector (though I would like one, to find odd-duck nails before running my planer), I'm giving myself 76 points, and 3 extra credit, since I DID get the first image. I said it was a nylon bolt with accompanying wingnut. Which I am quite certain is correct. And since I have been called a Wingnut by my brother many many times in the long-ago past (possibly into modern history too), I'm adding 6 more points, based purely within family historionics. So, by my calculations, that takes me up to 84 points, which WITHOUT a curve, would be a good, solid B. Which I have no complaints about. Particularly since the teacher said this was a difficult one. And I agree. So, that is that, and such, and if not, it would be this, and such, which still counts. Thankyouverymuch
Oh well I have a cheap solution for you from Harbor Freight. I have one and use it for a pinpointer. It is made for exactly what you say about finding nails in wood. Cheap but works.
You can see it in action in my vid here at the 3:30 mark.
Its 16 bucks at Harbor Freight

Whoops I upped thee wrong comment and upped my own LOL
This must be a metal detector ... and I'm still waiting for an advice from you which one I should buy 😜
Great shots again @old-guy-photos!
Well I dont have the big money like my friend @dswigle so I had to make do with the Garrett Ace 250 lol. I found a lot of good stuff with it. Here is a video where I found my first gold ring with it years ago
I also liked my Fisher F2. They are both entry level machines and I compare them here. Almost 80 thousand views on my vid lol!
The cool thing is I used them for YEARS almost every weekend, and I still got half what I paid for them! It is a great hobby and so very relaxing. You can enjoy it solo or with others. There is a great YouTube community.
Heyyy! To be fair, I said that I used the one my father had that was put together with gum and spit. It worked awesomely! And the entry-level one is great too.
The other is just better. ;)
I am just waiting for a post of you using it!!!! Pics or it didn't happen and all that jazz lol
Ha!
Great videos!
I will dive into the different models and what can be bought here in the NL the first two weeks in September when I have some days off.
Thanks for all the information!
The Garrett Ace 300 Metal Detector is awesome and under 250 dollars. It works wonderful, but, now I want to hear the old guys take on it. But, the one my dad gave me is a generic no name and it rocks it. ;)
Bookmarked - thank you @dswigle !!!
:)
You can look at it, my dad's was old and pieced together by him! :) I still used it on the beach and woods. It is kind of cool and so much fun! You never know what you are going to get!
That's exactly the fun part :)
Thanks for your advice on the Garrett Ace 300 - I'll check if I can find a second-hand one here in the NL.
Some day when there are more Steemers, it would be cool to get an East Coast metal detectorist meet up! Someday!!!
Ha!!! I actually guessed it before the end. Who knew I could do that? :) Here is my link to #MonochromeMonday #BeatuifulSunday #SublimeSunday and #FruitsandVeggiesMonday... all inclusive. It was the only way I could get them all done today.
