Wedding Band Rescued

 Hire Jewellery Rescue with metal detector , Peter had all but given up on his wedding ring ever being found. Peter a plumber turned excellent  landscaper wanted to wear a wedding band now he wasn’t in the plumbing trade. However while  laying wood chip mulch he took his gardening gloves off during the day, losing his solid gold ring as well.  Peter and his lovely understanding wife met me in the gardens Peter was working in.  He pointed out all the aluminium and steel benches  surrounding the garden in question and asked if they would be a  hinderance to the metal detector.  I replied  my etrac metal detector would discriminate the aluminium and steel seats, however it wasn’t going to be easy as the metal detector would still respond to the mass of metal.  So the hunt  begins, Backing the power of the detector  right off I was able to search closer to the the metal seats. The etrac was able to metal  detect to with in 100mm of the seats  finding a variety of metal bobby pins etc,  I then turned to my pin pointer probe that beeps only in  very close proximity to metal items.  I used  it to search underneath the seats in and around the  steel legs pushing it through the wood chips.  Still not finding Peters wedding band.  Dusk turned to night we had to stop searching for that night no one wanted to give up the on the ring but we had to  let it go.     Peter and his wife didn’t expect to find it  and paid me my base service fee. I said I would like to look for the ring for no extra  cost on my own time on the weekend if they would have me  back on the weekend.   They agreed but didn’t get their hopes up too high, a wise  precaution.  My good friend  Brad  from  www.metaldetectorehire.com.au  and  his diving  friend  offered to come over later in the day to assist in the  search for the ring, we always want the best result for our customers and I looked forward to meeting up with him again.  So on Saturday morning when I was fresh and full of renewed inspiration I started  going CSI (crime scene investigation) in minute detail on this garden and surrounds. This  time working the  garden from a new direction as metal detectors can react differently to targets lying at different angles. Still pulling out every metal target in my path.  An  hour into the renewed  search,  a beep,  a  gold  beep, the slightest hint of a gold reading being masked by surrounding metal  influences.  So I changed sweep angles  again a stronger gold  signal  this time. Using the pin pointer to lightly sweep over  the wood chips,  into the sunlight flipped the solid  gold band that was hidden beneath.   A lovely and welcome sight.  It was my great pleasure to call Peter and his wife who were on their way to shop for a replacement ring as it turns out,  I gave them the good news.  They meet me in minutes and were ecstatic as the ring was returned to its rightful place on Peter’s finger.  I thank you  both for allowing me to  re-search the gardens.  Thank you very  much for the ample reward you gave me.  A new ring just wouldn’t be the same as the one you took your vows  with.  I wish you both all the best in the  future.
