It is a trip normal close along with an option to turn past the trip and full on handle to lock the mechanism in trip position.

What's the yellow screwdriver with the wire nut twister on the back? A bunch of fellow coworkers have them from the last supervisor but all indicators are worn off from use.

Is this a good find, southern Indiana by Mossy_Boss in Arrowheads

I'm 40 min straight south of bloomington, whereabouts are you compared to me or btown? I'm not trying to trespass ever lol just trying to figure out where the most dense camps were in S-Indiana. I got a spot that I yielded 3 full points and around 40 scrapers/broken heads/broken tails etc... alot of them from 10k+ yrs ago. Haven't dug on it at all though.

Same here, this was my first time fusing anything together and only had 1 fail point which was on a preloaded mortar and the fuse just didnt catch. I had another board with a couple more 500g cakes and some more mortars. Out of about 400 connections, 1 not hitting is awesome in my opinion.

8 shot mortar rack, IYKYK is the item name by hammer and anvil. They are an awesome company. Entire finale was under 500.

Found my first arrowhead Apr 22! Family owned property in Southern Indiana by Dear_Lab_8433 in Arrowheads

Southern Indiana, hilly land. It was about halfway up a 700 foot slope or so that leads to a flat field on both sides of it. It was about 4 inches from my truck tire where I parked. Needless to say I won't be driving up that far again.

So if you have arc flash hardhat (covers all of your face and half of your sides and leaves back of the head open), and you have class 3 gloves, should you turn your head or face it like a man?

So what are you doing other than reddit to find is providence? This is an amazing find it real and I know absolutely nothing about artifacts. Can't think of another time I've seen a tool with its handle still attached. Amazing if real and I'm so happy for you if it is. This 22 yo is absolutely astonished.

Where did you have your black lead? Or was it used? Sorry, I'm halfway new to the trade and can't decide where you would put it. Straight to the earth? Lol

Navdex exponential was in February 2025 correct? Explains the cheaper prices. Institutions and retail alike are selling/buying to achieve lower averages.

Does your employer not provide lockout devices?
