i noticed something round shaped it lookt like a musket bullet when you did dig up first fired bullet

How do I get one of those books bud? That's cool

EXCELLENT video…thanks! 😊

Enjoy your channel. I don't know why you quit but I hope all is well.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

Do you still metal detect

Always enjoyed your videos, I hope you and your family are well and you can return to making more detecting videos! Best of luck and...Happy Hunting!

Great Video!

Great video and very helpful!

You were really cranking out some high-quality videos on a frequent basis, then suddenly stopped. Not even one video in 4 years. Everything okay?

I have to dito @sudhanshujayaswal2141 comment. I'm in Stark thinking about detecting again. This time more seriously. Thanks.

If need more specific than county I have better luck with townships than cities since a lot of modern cities that are pretty old weren’t around back then

Here from Wayne county Michigan lmao

Dude where you been? Loved your vids

I enjoy your work, Thanks for the effort you put in , Also as a beginner you were very helpful for me with My equinox 600 / 800 and now 900.

where have you been? No new videos?

Oh, I wouldn't really call that very crusty. When I say crusty, I think of much worse. The loss of relief is what I worry about with crusty coins. That coin is pretty decent.

I started watching because I'd just got a MX Sport and wanted to see how you did with it. I've been detecting 40+ years (All white's) Have 3 of them now, including the MXT all pro. I'm guilty of running wide open, everything set as high as I can get it. Sport gives me mixed signals, but I usually can sort it out. Just maybe the problem of the detector being confused may be the person running the machines fault. Maybe less is better. I'd like to do a side by side and see if I can reduce the detectors load by turning it down. That and get the danged 13 inch DD coil off and a nice 6 inch concentric coil on. On that account, I have found the smaller coils to be much more stable. With the MX Sport running 2 tone, One good, One not so good, How simple is that! Bringing me back too (Less may be better)

Great video Artic Explorer, you show dedication, some lovely finds. All the best from U.K. new V3 i user

Hairspray works good as a grip glue

This is exactly what i did. I bought a harbor freight flat shovel, then cut the handle down, and took a grinder to it and that's what i did for 20 dollars

Clever use of a Heat gun will get that whole rubber handle off..

OK I see its' years old. Hot and Dry here in WV, Haven't been out for almost 2 months. Still learning the MX Sport.

Can't hear you over the music.....

Nice video man. Also 10/10 for muting the angle grinder.

You always have great hunts. Thanks😊

Great video, love the intro music, made me grin when you mentioned coins on railway tracks, stuff I did years back . Great video thanks for sharing

miss you!

Square Nail I’m wanting to grow my channel and have thought one way could be to buy channels like yours that have a few thousand subscribers and try and consolidate. Please don’t take offense I have really enjoyed your channel over the years and I just thought it couldn’t hurt to ask. I’m getting ready to start a one year treasure cache hunt on locations all across the country. But I don’t do the legends or whatever. I source everything from old newspapers and my rule of thumb is if I Google the article’s specifics and something comes up it’s out! There are more than enough to be very picky. Should be fun and I’m hoping all the people that like these videos will really enjoy my concept.

Use an air compressor with a stem and shoot air up inside the red handle sleeve and you can pull it off.

I still come back to this video to re-learn stuff. Thanks😊👍

Excellent information! Thank you for sharing. Liked and subscribed.

Can you please detail for me what you did your v3i for the battery? I want to do that to mine

rubber top is dipped , no glue. blow som air with a aircompressor inside and it will pop right off.

Love your videos over all the other detectorists, hope you come back and put more of your great content out!

Good video. Make some more with the whites v3i!

Hope everything is alright I've been waiting for new video for a long time I hope everything is all right with you

Miss ya man!

You have the best videos! Are you still doing detecting? Any plans to make more videos?

Miss your videos. But thanks for all you done. 😊

I did the same thing 7 or 8 years ago with a $7 shovel from walmart. I would say I like the one I modified better than any i have seen so far.

Отличный детектор! Я и сейчас с ним! Нравится большое количество настроек! Инженерное меню - в полном распоряжении! Желаю замечательных находок!

second find was a grease gun tip that broke off the hose.

Top notch! You did a superb job with this video from start to finish. Concise and complete, thorough explanations, you're a natural teacher. Patient and gifted! I bought my first brand new metal detector, White's Spectrum XLT, in the summer of 1997. The very next day and every day after, 5 days a week, for a couple of weeks, I drove an hour one way to the Historical Archives Building in downtown Montgomery, Alabama to research places to detect. I'd get there in the morning as the doors were being unlocked, first person in and was the last to leave in the afternoon at quittin' time. Each day I'd read through a stack of quarterly historical books pertaining to the county I lived in and a few surrounding. For hours and hours each day, I hand wrote notes on looseleaf paper in a three ring binder. And each day my fingers would cramp on the drive home. After reaching an inch thick goal of those handwritten notes I'd compiled, together with a stack of select photocopied pages of microfilmed newspapers, each copy costing a quarter, I figured this would be more places to search than I could cover in a lifetime. LMAO! I had a lot to learn! And so the next day I began detecting. Took many many years to near about locate all those places, but the part I still to this day laugh about is, yeah, that list was massive but I've since then searched the grounds of fifty times that number of sites. LOL! Thanks so very much for teaching this old dog a new trick!!! Plenty more new places to dig! That adrenaline rush is still intense between me and my XLT!

Very helpful, thank you.

Hands down the best detectorists on KZbin. Dude would probably be one of the biggest if he stuck it out!

We miss your high quality videos buddy. Hope all is well with you and yours.

Great job! Thanks!

I would like to buy this exact shovel. Have a link for it?

I m buying a detector wondering if forests by old churches, are good spots
