High Exposure 5,634 Posted April 30, 2015 Anyone have a metal detector I can borrow for an hour or so? I need to find property boundary markers that have been buried in my back yard. In am in the Middletown/Sandy Hook area. If so send me a PM. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bhunted 887 Posted April 30, 2015 Sure they are metal and not wood? Ours are wood stakes. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

High Exposure 5,634 Posted April 30, 2015 They are metal rods/rebar capped with a plastic orange cover about 1" OD. I was able to use a tape and get it down to about a 2' square area, but I still can't find them. When we first moved in they were clearly visible. With the wet winter we had they got covered up by dirt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tunaman 538 Posted April 30, 2015 The surveyors that did mine used a magnetic wand. Some places rent them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
