These U-shaped pins have been used during the Holidays for years by the Yacht Club to pin extension cords snugly to the ground for Christmas lights that are put around all the palm trees and bushes on this center island....But the workers were not very good at picking them up afterwards. This year while the grounds crew mowed the lawn one was thrown into the door of a BMW and a couple others flattened the tires and messed up the blades on the mowers. They tried using one of those magnets that roofers use but with the grass so thick and deep it could not pick them up, so one of the board members that I know suggested me for the job. He even set the price I should be paid.
I went out there this afternoon and using the X-30 with the standard concentric coil, started cleaning up. It turned out to be so easy, the ground had no other targets to deal with....nothing but -4 TID's, but a lot of them. I spent two hours finding a target and poking my digger around in the grass till it hit metal or just eyeballing them. No digging was needed. After I was done the club manager was amazed at how many I found and was more than happy to pay me the $200.00 dollars that was suggested.
Got to say this was the first time it was worth it to dig junk! GL ALL
