I'm trying to locate a buried PVC water line. I've read about different methods, and am initially trying dowsing. I recalled seeing this movie when I was a kid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFsiI_jAURk If you watch a bit starting at minute 40 you will get the idea. I'm not an albino, but I figured what the heck. I tried it this morning, careful to do it early enough so my wife wouldn't see what I was up to. I figure laughter wouldn't help. I used copper rods, bent 90 degrees, one in each hand. They did cross. I repeated it, they crossed at the same place. Digging here is difficult, I dug a bit, soaking it now to make it easier. No sign of the pipe yet. So my question, anyone have any experience or words of wisdom for me? |
