[@user-myDeus24ever]

It is a very nice painting you did Dawn

[@johnblamer5275]

I’m glad to see you using the AT max. I bought one and then everyone started using newer models. Made me wonder if I messed up and should of waited.

[@firstLast-eh2gm]

"hit them with a rolled up newspaper" 😂 another great video, keep up the good work!!!

[@garytaylor2236]

Another Fabulous episode topped off with your painting ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@DiggerDawn]

Thanks Gary

[@kimetherington2252]

Wow, Dawn! What a beautiful abstract painting! A lot of people would love to own it, including me! You have a good eye for painting abstracts that you could sell to your subscribers! I would for sure buy one! Keep on the digity, dig, dig, dig.✌️😊

[@DiggerDawn]

aww thanks Kim, I think it was just a lucky outcome, I just decided to flap my arms to how I was feeling lol and added some blue birds/flowers/whatevers

[@SherryRector]

Win some lose some but as you said we are never tired of finding what ever the ground offers us! It’s called appreciation of a beautiful day.

[@DiggerDawn]

Exactly Sherry, and it can always be next time :-)

[@acadiastrong4446]

Great job on your diet and the Reno’s on your flat. Love watching your videos…you are a ray of sunshine. Cuddles to Diggy 🐕

[@DiggerDawn]

Thanks, yes life is very good and I am fortunate, thanks for the lovely comment, its people like you that keep me smiling :-)

[@JorgeRodriguez-iq7vb]

That is a real nice painting! I think you should keep painting and put them up for sale, you have real talent.

[@DiggerDawn]

Im not sure I do, I think it may have been a lucky outcome that matched just right :-)

[@andreafirth577]

Great video Dawn. I really believe Garrett is going to put out a fantastic series of storm detectors!

[@DiggerDawn]

Fingers crossed! I'm sure they have something fab on the way

[@benhansen2557]

I’ve just started metal detecting and got the bug straight away. I’ve just come across one of your videos and I’ve got to say, you’re awesome!

[@gregorywillis2447]

Very well done on your painting, goes well with the rest of the decor. And another ring thing, maybe you need a ring dance? LOL

[@DiggerDawn]

Yes the way its going I think a ring dance might be fun

[@TheElfishGene]

A better painting than some professional artists I know. A new career awaits Dawny!

[@DiggerDawn]

aww thanks :-) feeling proud now

[@kimbateman226]

Love your chirpy spirit, never give up, something will always turn up, even if not valuable. The painting was really good, did you clean your little gun, imagine the kids who played with it, all the best for the next dig

[@auntieelizabethleepermartinez]

Dawn I love what you get from silver coin and ❤ I love where ever you find

[@DiggerDawn]

Thank you :-)

[@Wreckdiver59]

That's a James Bond 007 cap gun. I found a cowboy six shooter cap gun in my front yard when I metal detected the first time. Probably from the kids who grew up next door. That and a whole key ring full of old dog license tags from the 70s. Congratulations on the weight loss. I've been trying to drop another 20 lbs after loosing 30, but I've been bouncing back and forth for a few months. I'm hoping once the weather breaks and I start planting my garden I'll get back on track.

[@markoevo]

Was just going to post that , walter ppk if i rember right ,

[@DiggerDawn]

Well done on losing 30lb, you will get back in the right headspace again once it warms up, you dont want to eat as much in summer

[@sandrawilkes2983]

love the painting dawn keep it up

[@DiggerDawn]

Thank you so much 😀

[@TonyBarr]

Watch out for Dawn hitting you on the fields with her rolled up newspaper 😂

[@donreed417]

I loved the painting. Great job. Aah well. You got out on a gorgeous day. Whats better than that? Maxie got traumatized and lost his juju. Hope you get a new machine.

[@nottmpaul3903]

Hi Dawn, great tips on metal detecting , also love your artwork it looks really good and well done with your weight loss .

[@DiggerDawn]

Thanks, thanks and thanks!!

[@hectordetectorist6919]

Don't get wasting away there Dawn 😂 Great video as usual. Great picture too, youl'll be a famous artist next!

[@DiggerDawn]

Thank you!

[@Kernomadz]

Great video as always!! And thanks for the tips too…I tried detecting at the weekend, and it turns out I need all the help I can get 😂😂

[@DiggerDawn]

Sometimes when we start out, we forget about digging holes etc so I thought i would start including some tips :-) stick at it, you will get there soon!

[@christhompson4270]

Well I bet that gun made your heart beat faster. Great job on your diet, awesome going. If that’s your first painting you’ve done 😍😍i think you need to do more as it’s amazing. Take care and cheers for sharing 👏🙏❤️

[@DiggerDawn]

Thanks Chris :-)

[@nancyweems5270]

Nice painting

[@AndrexT]

The view up there is gorgeous. I think your pot is a Glue Pot for wood glue that you melt over heat. I have been told the Storm is a complete range of revolutionary designed machines, but we will see. I love the Picture you painted, it is fantastic. The screw thing is a Copper Rivet. Nice day out, and like the new intro. 😀

[@DiggerDawn]

Glue pot sounds very sensible! I think you are right because there is some gunky stuff at the bottom I cant get out!

[@DiggerDawn]

I wouldnt believe anything you have heard, believe me theres no info out there

[@AndrexT]

@@DiggerDawn I used them at school woodworking in mid 1960s. Stand it is a pot of boiling water and it should melt. It came in pellet form and was called ‘horse glue’. It has a very distinctive smell, and not unpleasant.

[@AndrexT]

@@DiggerDawn It was a main dealer and last weekend. Probably a guess, but he sounded convincing.

[@YorkshireBoysDetecting1966]

True metal detecting Dawn and always my dear a pleasure to watch. Tried doing a few videos on my channel and it's bloody hard lol. If you are doing detectorval this year would love to buy you a beer and have a chat. Kind regards Ian and Connor Green.

[@DiggerDawn]

Well at least your trying, and it can be hard work, ive got used to it after doing a video a week for nearly 10 years and sort of see it as a 2nd hobby when I have the time :-) I dont think I am going to Detectival this year, but you never know things might change :-)

Nice one DD - thanks 🙏agen, Bobby x

Any time!

@@DiggerDawn Hey meant to ask Dawn - was that big 'ring thing' a bull's nose-ring?... I found one a few weeks ago: My little one has bin' whingeing about having a septum piercing... So I offered her the bull's one... (She wasn't best amused!... ). Lolz... B x

I think it's James bonds gun. I saw 007 on the side.👍

[@TexasTreasures-v1m]

Awesome video as usual Miss Dawn. If you haven’t already named your painting. Might I suggest “What’s in the hole?” Because each stroke represents a thought of a different find that goes through your mind until you find it. Just a thought. Your friend Bill from Texas ❤️🌹

[@DiggerDawn]

Great suggestion!

Don't worry about the weight you lost, I found it. Good to see you inspired. Your are looking youthful for a 75 yr old. Pity the coins eluded you, but you did find things you have never seen before even if you couldn't name them.

[@DiggerDawn]

hahaha you proper make me laugh

[@allanusedon1542]

Let's hope garretts big surprise is a new at multi frequency machine, I'm currently saving to upgrade from my at max so could be interesting if released in time before I buy something else , great vid as usual dawn , happy hunting

I know the wait is excruciating, I hope they release some more news soon

Update us on that firearm after cleaning it, please. 🙏

Hi love your videos, I’m new to metal detecting, only been out twice and found rubbish 😂 I have an ace 250 are they any good? Have you ever used one?

Thank you for your reply 👍

[@bingohall1333]

Another bronze age donut and a gun metal or plastic. More moo tubes please, I like to think the countryside has been lived in and definitely no hammered coins or bottle tops next time, they say the sun shines on the leftus, the sun on you, you must be bang on it, for a gold next. As you said, you have lost weight maybe someone might help you find it for you Love mum

[@hardyakka6200]

Dawn I don,t think you should be allowed near any weapon even a toy one.
