        And, amusingly, “just guessing” probably has outcomes not all that different from “Looking at the crappy scribbled map from whoever said ‘not it’ the slowest somewhere in 1964”

        You’d be surprised how close you can get with it. I’ll use my locator first and foremost, but every now and again some areas can be stubborn and two pieces of 12awg copper has found what the locator had issues with. I would never use a machine where we doused, only hand dig, but it has come in handy.

        I’ve never tried finding water with it, only buried electric lines and pipes. Apparently it was popular with gold miners.
