I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm David and when i'm not fighting itch weed, ticks and mosquitos, i like to metal detect and every once in a while, I'll pull a bit of silver out the ground!

I'm from Minnesota, born and raised, and live in the far SE Corner, the so called "Driftless region", where the valleys are deep, and the streams run cold. I have two kids (a son, 30 and a daughter, 18) who like to go on adventures with me. I own a modest CNC machine shop and like to fabricate things from metal!

Welcome to the forum David from Pittsburgh, Pa. You are a lucky guy to have your kids detect with you. I wish mine would, both are busy with life and raising families. Maybe one day. Good luck and good hunting. Mark

Welcome from So.Cal. It could be a blessing or a curse letting us all know you own a machine shop. Lol.....
