You are the Bob Ross of the geocaching world. It's hard for me to not feel jazzed up and in the mood for creating some caches when watching your videos. Pity I have two left hands.
Geweldig Peter.derop dat je dit met mij deelt :) erg geapprecieerd! Ik zet deze in een lijst. Als ik nog is aan de kanten van Bxl ben ff om rijden om wat inspiratie op te doen:D
great idea tim i haven't built anything in a long time now i have moved to townsville Queensland Australia from tassmania. but when i get sorted i will start building again. have a great day mark
Sadly, I don't have very many more to show. My gadget caches now are "smart", meaning they have microprocessor's inside and not easily duplicated. I am going to do 1 Smart cache video, just to show the capabilities of a smart cache.
I was under the impression that the Geocaching rules don't allow for digging holes, including a hole for putting up a post. Now on your own property, or with permission from the landowner/ park dept. that rule does not apply, but what is your backup plan for mounting a cache if the 4x4 post is not allowed?
Geocaching HQ now allows 4x4 post to be installed but you have to have written permission from the landowner. Submit a copy of the permission with your cache. If the landowner will not allow a post, then I guess I would find another location to place my cache. The alternative, a chain around a tree is not a good one.
@@timeggleston1440 thank you. I have never hidden a cache yet. I am working on a birdhouse style cache, and am trying to figure out how to mount it. I appreciate the advice.
I don't have plans or I would happily share them. What I am trying to do is give you some ideas and you take the concept and make your cache. Hopefully you can watch the video and get enough of an idea how how to build this one.
@@gadgetcaches What is the reasoning behind having a box within a box design to hold the lock n lock? I am currently building my first hide, which I intend to be regular cache disguised as a birdhouse. I want to eventually build up to gadget caches like this, but as this is my first time experimenting with power tools, I am just mastering the woodworking aspect for now. Is it ok if my birdhouse door is on a hinge with a PB Jar cache inside? I wish I had thought of putting the door on the bottom, but my first two birdhouses have the front door on hinges.
@@sarahereachAbsolutely, that's a great way to start. I applaud you for using power tools for the first time. Start with where you feel comfortable and work up. Thanks for the effort to improve our game, I'm sure geocachers will love the effort you put into it. Congratulations... let us know how it goes.
i had the pleasure of solving this gadget cache when i completed the geotrail a couple months ago. thank you for placing this one.
Looks nice. Maybe this will be the 3rd cache that I will build after one of your ideas.

Thank you, don't know if that is true, but appreciated. : )
Your ideas and Caches are great!😉
This was so fun to watch! Now I’m very curious about the surroundings it’s going to go in, LOL!
I will be installing one of these here in Belgium. Such a sweet idea. Cheers!
Ik hoop niet te dichtbij waar ik woon (Limburg) :), 'k zou deze ook graag willen kopiëren daarom ;)
Beau Ikke Dilbeek :)
Da's zeker ver genoeg van elkaar :p

You're Caches are so neat! Very clever. Like a nonkilling Jigsaw with all your geo cache games!
we found this cache and enjoyed it so much! i happened across your videos recently, and immediately recognized the unique birdhouse style!
great idea tim i haven't built anything in a long time now i have moved to townsville Queensland Australia from tassmania. but when i get sorted i will start building again.

Great idea sir!
Nicely done. Thanks for sharing! You are giving me lots of ideas for sure!
Boonsboro MD shirt! Grew up in that area!
What an awesome cache! Your so creative! We're going to make one for our house
Im glad the videos are coming again

gadgetcaches Can't Wait!!
going to make this cache got guess who ordered thanks for your videos love all your caches
Thank you for the idea. I just made this cache and i am SO happy! 😁😁😂😂😃😃
cool idea
I love the Screw in the tree. haha
Don't get me in trouble... video points out this is ONLY for filming purposes. This was filmed in my back yard, cache is actually in SC. : )
Great idea
Cool!
It must be a full time job to upkeep all your caches.
Thanks for sharing so many great ideas - your channel gets a favorite point! New sub.
Do you have a GC-code? I really want tot solve the statement :)

Im going to find this cache next week XD XD XD XD
what kind of wood do you use?
Pine... with several coats of primer and paint. NEVER use plywood. Cedar is even better but more expensive.
Wish someone would include plans...

clever
So if you have a cache like this... if it's still active, is there a GC code??? :)

Hello WVTim!
I have been inspired by your vids to make my own gadget cache.
What is your e-mail so you can answer a few of my questions?
my email is on my profile page.
