Default Only 10,295 to go.

Received my new Tesoro Silver uMax about 1/2 hour ago. Quickly assembled it and ran out the back door and another 10' to the gravel driveway. Within a minute I had a beep. Switched to Disc, Iron....beep, then to foil....beep...then to $.05...beep then all the way....beep. Something wrong here. All I find is rusty nails....Shouldn't be beeping. Decided to scrape away the moss....still beeps....dug down an inch.....still beeping.....Got digging tool (Thanks Tinman) dug down 3"...no beep....checked gravel pile....beep. started separating into littler piles....narrowed down to one......separated more.....still narrower....then I found it.

My very first find with the new Tesoro. That's two....I'm on a roll.

WooHooo!!!! Good job, Jack Get to know that machine. Maybe your wife will pick up the other one and you guys will be a force to be reckoned with.
