Goecaches and Metal Detectors
I have an old metal detector I got at a garage sale... I think it's the cheapest one Radio Shack sells, it is not particular at all about finding metal junk. I was using it on an old service station site my dad owns, it's mostly just woods now (A good place for a Geo-Cache!) - All we found was several oil-can lids, a bent spoon, and a quarter, which I had dropped in there on purpose to entertain my son.
Hence a really crummy metal detector would be perfect for honing in on goecaches in metal boxes. I am thinking about putting a more compact telescoping pole on it, maybe even making a smaller control box for it (There's really not much to the guts of it) and adding it to the Geo-caching backpack I plan to make; with swag, extra pens, some plastic bags to fix wrecked caches, EXTRA GPS BATTERIES, a super-bright LED flashlight, what else? That's all I can think of, just woke up.
