As I caught a glimpse of something metallic while raking leaves yesterday, I stopped and retrieved my very basic Radio Shack metal detector and went looking. Sure enough, the clip for the breakaway brake system had fallen off the A-Frame of the trailer and was soon headed for the compost pile.
While I use mine mainly for when I drop something in grass or leaves while working on equipment, I was wondering if anyone else dose the same or perhaps as a hobby. I find it's a big help when something "disappears" into the weeds.
Hobbyists I have spoke to seem to think the Minelab- https://www.minelab.com/metal-detectors are the top of the line, my old Radio Shack unit has worked surprisingly well. There are many others through all the price ranges so if you are interest in finding the needle in the haystack, there is hope.
