    Losing a finger

    There was an American guy by the name of Marvin Lorne, who used to play the coffee shop circuit around Melbourne back in the 80's and 90's. He wore a prosthetic little finger when he played, and it was on his fret/chord hand too. Damned good player he was, and you wouldn't have known when you...

    Losing a finger

    I feel for you there LW, coming from a trade background myself. I've seen people wounded from the mistakes of others- including my own mistakes, and been wounded by theirs. Often born out of the mind-addling repetition of some particular job or project. Although there is never any intent, you...

    Losing a finger

    Sorry to hear that Patrick, but at the same time I'm kind of envious. I crushed this one under a log on a 40 ton wood splitter about six or seven years ago. A plastic surgeon "saved" it, but the joint is now painfully buggered with arthritis and grows more gnarly and disfigured as each year...

    Snake Gaiters

    I've got the DD's in rip-stop canvas, but nothing beats eternal vigilance and common sense. I suspect the double D's worn loosely would give you pretty close to as good protection as you will get with most Australian snakes, short of armor-like articulating steel or kevlar segments. Maybe it's...

    There is a show on TV where the late princess Diana's brother looks into the history of the family estate, and from the ad that I saw they were using metal detectors to find stuff.

    What are YOU doing right NOW

    There was an old saying years ago Jaros that went something like- If you ever come into any money, never talk about it in front of your washing machine or your fridge. Looks like that should now be updated to include the dishwasher and the TV. :)

    Finally something.

    Congrats on the new equipment Muk. Insurance companies can be shifty at times- Happy to take your money for years, but not so happy to cough up when the time comes for them to pay out. Hopefully the Z will find enough yellow to make up for the other 2/3 that you should have got from them.

    Under the microscope

    They are great photos Shineon :Y: But don't you dare flash them around too much, or the "it all adds up" brigade will be lobbying Minelab to make their next release find it. :playful:

    Sandy Shafts

    Thanks Nenad, that's so sad to hear. I believe the gland nuts were machined in NZ and the rest made here in Oz (or Vice Versa). I've got an 80cm Concentric landing soon, and I was hoping to just swap the 5000 control box over between the 25" DDX and the Detech 80cm, leaving the shafts and coils...
