    You’ll be ready for 6000 soon there’s a big difference not when you’re raking indignant but in general noisy ground can you get more depth Monster it’s a good machine easy to learn how to run use your headphones You will learn so much more and be able to hear much different world

    Yeah yeah you’re on the right track digging and raking! They will lead you to weather is good Gold keep digging. Most of the really easy stuff on top is been hit hard that’s all use hydraulic pit look like parks because we raked and moved rock piles and cut back the brush made them look like parks that the trash areas we would skip the last 40 years find good spots what’s your hard to find because they’ve been cleaned up
