[@cassopsnoxdigger614]

VERY INTERESTING VIDEO AND INFO M8..I NEVER KNEW THAT..have you made any Target ID number cards for the 900 yet, if so how do i get my hands on one or two, no one's done it to my knowledge here in the UK, ALSO DO YOU THINK THAT mINELAB WILL DO A SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR THE 900 ? all the best GL&HH Gordon.

[@DigItDetecting]

I am really glad you enjoyed watching @cassopsnoxdigger614 it's such an interesting and cool process. I also have put together Target ID charts for the 900. (Video showing me making the list on my channel) I have made an laminated them into smaller keyring charts which I sell for $5 each on my Facebook Group Dig It Detecting. Unfortunately I am out of stock for 900 charts but will be making more up very soon. They are super handy.
Cheers again and happy hunting Gordon👍👍⛏️

[@cassopsnoxdigger614]

@@DigItDetecting CHEERS LUKE Ilook forward to getting my hands on one !

[@waynearmstrong5233]

G'day Luke, I suppose youve already thought about sticking them under a uv lamp, but then again why ad to the electricity bill when the sun will do it for free! Cheers Mate!

[@DigItDetecting]

Hello there @wayne armstrong I sure have mate. Although it can be a dangerous process without protection. And can happen uncontrollably quick.
I would much prefer the slower process by throwing them on the roof and getting up there to turn them every few weeks. Plus I can yell out..."Hey Helena look at me I'm on the roof" whilst up there. She loves it😅😅

Have you had a look at the now purple glass under a fluorescent light? In the glass collecting world a glass that goes from purple to blue is called neodymium glass. Im curious to know if this is how it occurs
