    Carrying a Snake bite kit

    In the snake bite directions on google etc. It states that you start the bandage from the lower end of the limb bitten. Toes and fingers. If the bite is on say, your knee, then bandage it from the toes to the groin. I feel that if you start below the bite, and bandage upwards, that you would be...

    Thanks for that uttu kaos. How do you use a hose to move a snake? Flick it on the ground to make them change direction?

    Snakes around the house.

    It's not illegal to kill a snake that threatens your safety. I guess that applies to humans too. Self defence, it's called. I'm looking at traps on google etc. It mentions using poly pipes, bird netting etc. but doesn't explain how to make, or use them. Anyone here got any knowledge on how to...

    Snakes around the house.

    Today my 5 year old grandson yelled out he saw a brown snake in the back yard of the house. We went and had a look for it, but couldn't find it. About 3 hours later, my daughter yelled out she'd seen a brown snake, about 1.5 metres long in the front yard. We looked for that one too, but couldn't...

    Does a Bigger Coil Mean Quicker Battery Drain?

    I've always used the largest coils I could get hold of, for prospecting/patch hunting. These larger coils never drain a battery faster than a small coil, in my opinion.

    Here's what I think, is a ancient pen nib I found when prospecting yesterday. (No gold!) I've never seen one like this before. wiley.

    Where has Zoom Earth gone?

    Hippy79. Their resolution, when blown up, is much better than google. It was also handy to go back in the years, as you could get summer and winter views, so you could pick up different anomalies on the surface.

    Where has Zoom Earth gone?

    mbasko. Here's what zoom earth used to look like. You could go back to view earlier years also, as shown by the dates on these. It also gave distance from one point to another. Plus co-ordinates. Very useful maps.

    Aiming driving lights.

    I'm fitting a pair of driving lights to the bullbar. Is there any tricks to aim them properly? Do I aim them straight down the road? Or, do I aim them slightly outward, so I can spot suicidal kangaroos lurking behind the trees?

    Where has Zoom Earth gone?

    I used to switch from Google Earth to Zoom Earth when checking potential prospecting spots, but Zoom Earth now has only weather maps. Does anyone know if It's still there, maybe under a different setting? Are there any sites similar to google maps? Thanks, wiley.
