Default ACE 250 is on order, what do I dig with?

Hi again,

I ordered the Ace 250 Friday and expect to get that soon. Now my question is, "what do you all dig with?". I am assuming a little trowel and maybe a camp shovel but I read something about a screwdriver. I expect to be doing most of my initial detecting around houses that are going to be demolished. Dirt may or may not be packed and there may or may not be lawns.

As before, any info would be greatly appreciated.

Joe

Hi Joe & welcome to the TQ forum.
I've been digging with the Leiche digger. I've had it now for about 10 years. Ask Wyatt about the large rock I pried out of the ground yesterday at the old school yard.
Check with the TQ sponsors to pick one up.

I use the WILCOX All Pro trowel. It has side cutting edges, that work great.
