I don’t know about the kiln… but seems others have you sorted, so I will just have that beer.
What else don't you know about pumping flammable gas into confined spaces? Stay safe 🤔🤷♂️
Struth Shane two dogs in one week w.t.f mate was it poison baits or snakes? Lol I liked your Croc bit by the creek as your in W.A I'd be checkng for crocs too those beggars can travel inland via creeks and rivers especially if there's been a flood from storms. So Nigel hanging up his boots and you hving to buy him out well you are your own boss now. Not too sure what sort of snake you came accross but any snake down here is considered Venomous so avoid those feckers at all costs. Well hope your Christmas was good with your family and Happy New Year for 2025 have you ever tried those freeze dried meals? Those will save you carrying around lots of tinned food weight wise just got to make sure you got lots of water to hydrate them . Boil the billy pour in the hot water to where it's marked on the back of packet, give it a good stir around reseal it for 15 minutes and tuck in. Australian Survival Supplies sells them over there in W.A. Well stay safe and all the best mate.
An your dogs - my heart goes out deeply mate Dog owner for years an the only way to truely stop grieving the lose of such a dear mate is to get another one 🐾💙
Good on your brother Shane you hold the reins all by yourself mate ✨👍 my dog recently picked up a bait☠️ while prospecting out Ora banda, it was a full piece of jerky he ate a bit off the end (they only need to lick it) just before I got him to drop it. I was told to use hydrogen peroxide or washing powder to get them to throw it up, I did so an brother hallelujah it worked, it felt so wrong giving him 40 g of washing powder and then squirt some dishwashing liquid down the hatch an hour later at the Broad Arrow hotel- then 1 hr later it happened he brought it up an there it was in pieces 😯fuck nearly got me red healer Chiefly 🐾 The vomit is contagious so we poured a strong batch of bleach over the area. Ok Matey you stay strong safe healthy and wise out der on own Hope we catch up one day bro 👍 have a some beers. I live this live permanently an also busk guitar around country for me bread an butter an of course a beer or two, currently at Kal keep it up Shane ✨⛏️
Actually my Bunsen burner used to do that just try re lighting it as it's ignited at the jet
Will try sort it in the morning, cheers mate 👍🏽🍻
Yeah try covering the holes near the valve until it gets cranking. Happy new year bud!!👍🍻
Thankyou I will give it a go 👌🍻👍🏽
Thanks for taking the time to make the videos my family love them
Thankyou. I greatly appreciate it. ☺️👍🏽🍻
More air get a blower
Will work on it in the morning. Thankyou mate 🍻👍🏽
Yes I agree your air inlet near jet needs adjusting back too much gas to air mix
Thanks for the tip, I'll give that a go 👍🏽🍻
cover 3/4 your air intake with some foil it's just pulling in too much air, once it gets hot you can uncover the air hole and it should run fine.
Awesome mate cheers for the advice. I will have a go at that tomorrow. Too many beers now to be playing with hot stuff hahaha 🍻👍🏽
YEAH nice video Mate hope all goe well for you.🤜🤛
Cheers Jim. Might run into you again sometime if your in the area. 🍻👍🏽
Wooohoooo Happy New Year
Happy New Year mate 👍🏽🍻
Condolences for your losses and all the best Shane and viewers for the coming year.
Cheers mate 🍻🤣
I don't mss those bloody flies sorry to hear about your dogs
Cheers mate 🍻👍🏽
Leave all the bad luck in 24 mate hope you have a crakn 25 all the best to you and your family ✌️🤙
Thanks Greg. I will try to mate. 🍻👍🏽
That's a Bummer Shane, no buddy, we hope Nigel get back soon in the field after some time out. I agree with you with dogs. I just don't get it to why they take that chance with their best mate. Good to hear you might get the time for some relic hunting on your outing and hope you get a Sov for your effort. All the best.
Cheers Detrack. I am happy 2024 is done at this stage. I will miss Nigel, maybe he takes a year or two off and I will run into him on the field again someday. This season will be very different. I hope to make great content and get everything in order. Get a caravan to the lease and set the mine up properly. 🍻👍🏽
Hi Mate sorry to hear about your dogs.All the best in 2025
Cheers mate 👍🏽🍻
Well Shane on your own now and heading into a new yr ahead I am wishing you and family the best new year ever And may the next season be plenty Got a good little lot to pay bills mate Maybe over next season with Famo59 See how I go Cheers 🍻 CrouchOz
Happy new year mate. I will be out on the lease probably, you can see me out there if you come over or wait until I’m coming through town may be better because there is no open ground near me
Good to see you back Dale, hopefully this year brings you some good luck, sounds like you need some after that run. 🍺🤙🏽
Cheers mate. Surely good luck is around the corner. 👌🍻👍🏽
Will def Miss Nigel!! Take care Shane!!
I will to, cheers mate. 🍻🍻
Locate the highest concentrations of gold by learning how to apply physics in dowsing for sought elements. In the 1970's my father and I reverse engineered the physics involved in dowsing, that are the same physics that energizes the alarm in electronic metal detectors. Then we invented he modern light weight ball bearing dowsing rod, which is the only dowsing rod that accurately gauges the element that is being dowsed by pitting the energy of gravity against the energizing of the pure one-tenth ounce dowsing rod load that is tapped onto the ELEVATED acetylene welding rod at five-inches from the hub's shaft, which is free spinning on ball bearings. This precisely gauges the dowsing of all edges, exact center, depth buried with angle of deposition, and most important is grading or deciphering the amount of the dowsed element that is contained in the elemental mass that is being dowsed. I am the dowsing savant who wrote the book to teach the world how to apply physics in dowsing for sought elements. My book: The Art of Dowsing - Separating Science from Superstition ($14.95), by Michael Fercik, explains all the physics involved in dowsing and teaches how to build the modern light weight ball bearing dowsing rod. Anybody can become a professional dowser by practicing and mastering the dowsing lessons taught in my book. I hope dowsing enriches your life intellectually and financially.
No gas for your beer, nah, not on
I know, I need a spare bottle hanging around. 🍻🍻
You just let me know when your ready for me to send you my address 😉. Kidding, not kidding, kinda kidding, 🤣🤙. Nice hunt brother. Beautiful country also 🤙
Haha yeah I got to get on with getting you that piece, gee I been slacking. In 6 more months 🤪. Just kidding mate I’ll get a SG soon I hope 🍻👍🏽
We are sorry to hear about your dogs. Keep pushing on Shane. We enjoy watching your channel.
Thankyou. I will keep on and produce a lot of gold in 2025 🍻👍🏽
3:01 that was hilarious. I did not expect that.
🤣🤣
Shane, you might have ingested a bit of arsenic from the arsenic pyrite. Have a good new year mate. Sorry about the dogs.
Maybe that was it. It wasn’t nice. Cheers mate. 🍻🍻👍🏽
Onya Shane. Hope you get tons of gold
Cheers detectabull, I will be going hard. 🍻👍🏽
what setting do you run the monster at , and is there many hot rocks there
Could the snake be a shovel nosed snake? I think they only grow to about 1 foot long though
Cheers mate. Yes I believe you are right. First time I seen this one, he was cool. 👍🏽🍻
Yeah Maxxis are shit in the desert.
Doesn’t matter what I run I have found I always do that one on the front left 🤔
"be carefully which rocks you lick" Now that's one sentence I never thought I needed to hear lol.
🤪 most people don’t lick rocks I guess 🤣 it was a bad experience, I had to go to camp and get water real fast.
Sorry for the loss of your fur babies mate
Cheers mate
Good onya mate Make it happen or do something else. Life is hard.
Cheers mate. Exactly right. Life is what you decide to make it, and I’m not one for giving up. 🍻👍🏽
Watch those crocs.🐊
🤪😬🐊
Damn .. your buddy's gone..that's a tough pill to swallow. We so much enjoy watching your stuff and hope the perseverance pays off 👍
Cheers mate. Stay tuned, I am hoping for a big 2025 and lots of great content and hopefully some new patches. 👍🏽👌🍻
You've got your priority's right Shane, sell some gold to buy some gas for your keg! Happy New Year Fella!
Cheers Nick. Happy new year 🍻🍻🍻🥳
Great video mate have a prosperous and happy new year
Cheers mate. And all the best to you also 🍻🥳👍🏽
Being out in the bush on your own is a bit dangerous, be very careful. I wish you well
Cheers mate, yes I know. It will be strange. I mean I do go by myself sometimes but not for months at a time. Will take some getting used to I guess. Apart from that I have no concerns out on the land, with Starlink if I break down I can be rescued. 🍻👍🏽
SHANE" Losing pups is really tough" been there! God Bless You and Yours! CHEERS" from 0c and Snowing Idaho! KEEP IT ROCKIN'THANX 4 POSTING! CHEERS MATE" jd
Cheers JD, that sounds way too cold for me hahaha. Thanks for the comment 🍻👍🏽
Sorry to hear about the dogs, may the Gold Moster scream at ya'!
Cheers mate 🍻👍🏽
Gday mate , all the best for the new year
Cheers Kayne, happy new year 🥳🥳🍻
Hay Shane good to see got another dog mate I have not got another one yet but I looking any way mate Merry Xmas from beno bennett
Cheers Beno, she kind of found us I guess. She has fit in well. I hope you find a new dog soon. It was strange not to have a dog for me. Merry Christmas 🥳👍🏽🍻
Sadly, people let their dogs roam and dont keep them on lead! 2 years, I've been full-time with my 2 out bush, they also only eat busicuits, not meat. I think it's funny that people put gold in their mouths, arsenic is always with gold. Good to see ya back at it.
3:01 LOOK OUT! 10:16 stick to windows Shane
🐊 stick to windows!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 good one.
@@WestOzAdventures 😁 Please keep an eye out for my request. The one I msg you about. The countdown is on. I have a year for you to hopefully to find it....or anything remotely similar.
