1 Replies and 3648 Views Free buckets  3648  1 Started by  Kenaslan@earthlink.net I have noticed how most people seem to have purchased 5 gallon buckets from their nearby big box store. However your local grocery store bakery department will give you buckets for free. There are the buckets that the frosting comes in. The handles are nice and comfortable too.

4 Replies and 3205 Views First day Prospecting Tips  3205  4 Started by  christopherwilburn@hotmail.com Today is my first day going out to a gpaa claim. Looking forward to seeing what I find when I get there. I know there are not to many different claims here in the state of Texas that are close by for prospecting, so going to head out to the closest one to my home town of Dallas. If anyone has any tips I could use them. I know I am really going to enjoy getting out in nature.

It comes in it's own packaging .Would it lose value if you removed it from the packaging I think if you remove the packaging from a uncirculated mint coin it would lose some of it's value.

2 Replies and 1897 Views Does size really matter?  1897  2 Started by  JTaylor@HL.com Hey All, Have a Whites TDI and three different sized heads.  Beyond the practical consideration of how big and does it fit in the nooks and crannies, can someone please direct me to a site or YouTube videos that address how to select what size is best for what specific applications Can give more specific details on what I have if helpful, but did not want to blather on unnecessarily. Cheers!!
