Other uses for our detecting skills and tools

[RobW]

I have been thinking about different ways on how metal detecting impacts our daily lives....

1) Picking up dog poo on the yard: the method used in gridding in detecting has made me very efficient at finding and removing dog poo in the yard. lol

2) Superb landscaping tools: The shovels are great for digging holes, and are of superior quality to what you would generally use, and a leche is great for cutting through landscape fabric and digging your hole

3) A detector is a great tool to have: It's great for when you lose that screw or nut that you MUST have on your lawnmower >:/

4) Knowing your area: In driving around trying to find locations to detect, you get to know the area better and thus know places you wouldn't otherwise know about...like restaurants, etc.

Please add your own!
