Default My ACE arrived yesterday!!

The ACE 250 I ordered, came in yesterday!!! I love it!! It does a great job of finding the rebar in the concrete floor of my office.

Now the dilemma. I bought this for me and my Son for Christmas
:presents2:
but after seeing all the great items that the folks here are pulling out of the ground, I don't know if I can wait that long.

Anyway, I think I will give it a short try in the back yard. You know, just to make sure it works and all that.....

Tim

You have a fine machine there and if you can sneak out and get familiar with it a bit it will help when you show the sone how. Congrats. JC

Congrats on the new machine. I would not have waited to try it out. You will have a great time with that machine. Might have to get a second one. It's still good to share with your son. He will like it allot. Congrats again...Buster....

If you haven't read my post in the "Finds" section, I'm keeping the ACE and getting my son something else. ...unless I win the drawing... He is having a blast helping me dig. BTW he loves to play with the worms!
