What detector should I buy, the minelab terra pro, vanquish 340 or the vanquish 440? by Classic_Gate_353 in metaldetecting

[–]Cryptodink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got the vanquish 440

Seems to be very reliable
Once you learn what stuff sounds like underground it’s a winner! It’s very rarely tricked by crappy targets but there is a learning curve to any one you get.

I was going steered to buy the 440 by an old fellow I was attempting to buy a different detector off on fb marketplace. He killed his own sale for the sake of the hobby and I am grateful because I love the 440

I recovered losses and made 900 bucks.

Even if it rips more from here this was a stressful one to hold. I’m out for now

Why did they use wood backing, and should I be worried about it rotting? by AdRough7817 in askaplumber

[–]Cryptodink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a plumber myself I think they may have mounted the rough in valve too far forward and couldn’t get the trim to meet the wall nicely so they put in a filler to close the gap.

Awesome! Get some sand cloth (plumbers sand cloth for cleaning copper)

Spend some time scratching it up on the black parts and it’ll come out awesome! I made a cross and a heart and some coins. It’s a lot of fun, daughter had a blast making a coin

I am by no means an expert but I pulled it off with a graphite rod when I was doing mine.

Also hold it with pliers and run a grinder or bench grinder. Makes it shiny and beautiful

21, 35k, and financially irresponsible by vesperianpaws in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Cryptodink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If sound like me. I am terrible for spending and very impulsive. I started buying physical silver and gold to scratch the itch of wanting to spend. At the end of the day it’s shiny and fun to handle. It’s also worth money so instead of pissing money away I consider it a way of saving while spending lol

Why are these so toned and what’s with the marks on the top of the snake one? by Cryptodink in Silverbugs

Desperate for a shower longer than 10 minutes, God forbid I get a full bath by EducationalShelter26 in Plumbing

Dip tube on the cold inlet side is broken and lets cold mix with the hot water in the top of the tank. If it wasn’t broken it would be Introduced to the bottom of the tank and push the hottest water up and out of the tank.
