…It started out a busy day for Mrs. Teena, for she had lots of places to go and a ton of tasks to complete around the house and yard. It was now evening and while enjoying dinner she noticed her ring was missing. Mentally going over where she may have lost the ring, she concluded that the characters involved in the disappearance was classy car, brownie leaf bag and friends, bladed grass, steely sewer drain or lefty grip glove and his right-hand man. Approaching classy car it said « It wasn’t me! I carry around a lot of weight but none of it is gold so go check brownie leaf bags! », and on doing so, no metal was detected with my MXT detector. Brownie bags got offended and said, « Why didn’t you check the bladed grass before me? ». Bladed grass was so thin we could see that the ring was not there but mentioned that steely sewer can see everything from below and noticed Mrs. Teena taking lefty grip glove and right-hand man on and off while filling up brownie leaf bags! But prior to my arrival Mrs. Teena checked both gloves and found nothing. I asked where grippy gloves were hiding and she said they were concealed out of sight by the house. I said that’s the clue we were waiting for! Lifting up the gloves I proceeded to scan them with my detector and got a metal signal and reading that indicated GOLD! Mrs. Teena and husband were awe struck and said again that she checked the gloves. So, reaching into the finger slot I was able to wiggle out Mrs. Teena’s very thin gold ring that lefty grip glove was hiding! Both she and husband were thrilled that this winning move to recover the ring fit like a glove!
…As David was hurrying to finish his outside tasks for the year his ring disappeared and with way too mulch on his agenda didn’t realize it until later that night. After looking without mulch luck, he called me to come by to metal detect. Fretting over the phone about not knowing where it was, I told his wife out in the yard that it wouldn’t be too mulch trouble to find it. Scanning the grounds I got no junk signals but nearing the end of the mulch beds I got a great signal and reading on the detector’s meter where tungsten rings usually appear. Probing down a bit with the pin pointer I got a metal target. Reaching down revealed David’s tungsten ring! I walked around to the front door and presented the ring to David’s wife and with mulch enthusiasm on the phone David said mulch obliged!

I received a call from Andy who stated that his wife’s wedding ring had been lost in the area of his driveway. We talked for a bit and exchanged a few texts and I arranged to go out the next morning.
Andy met me at his home and stated that he thought the ring was in or around a bush next to the driveway. He thought he saw the ring fall into that area but he and a neighbor who had a metal detector were unable to find it. I immediately went to work feeling pretty confident that the ring would be somewhere close but probably not in the bush if the neighbor did not find it. I soon figured out why the other person had a tough time as the ground was super loud with all sorts of sounds. I checked around the bush and then expanded my search but came up empty. I then commandeered a trash can and started to clean up the leaves along the side of the driveway but again…nothing. I then went back into the area of the bush and with my detector and pin pointer and started to pull out some small nails and a few other targets. I kept getting a hit at the base of the bush and but I could not locate the source. I kept going removing lot of leaves and some mulch…the target was there but ever elusive. All of a sudden – I found the ring!! It was located at the base of the bush which was coiled around like a spring and had gotten covered up, maybe from the previous searches.
I called Andy who came back to retrieve the ring. I told him it was in the bush where he thought but it was really tough find. Andy was very thankful and immediately took the ring inside for when his wife arrived home. As always it was a pleasure to meet another kind and generous client like Andy and return his wife’s wedding ring.

Eric called a few local marine divers and was kindly pointed to my services. He had just returned to Seattle after a commercial fishing run in Alaska. After processing through the Ballard Locks and being guided by a tug boat through Salmon Bay it was time to tie off at their shipyard seawall dock.
Eric, up in the bow and had just thrown the port side mooring line through the hawse pipe from the bow chock. He told me as the mooring line was paying out at a good pace he put his hand down to slow it and it pulled his wedding ring straight of his finger. He watched his chunky gold diamond wedding ring fly through the hawse pipe and landing with a splash in the water below. A quick curse word with nothing much more to do his focus was back on completing the priority docking process at hand. It was confirmed when his ring dropped into the water there was zero propulsion from his vessel. They were being pushed by a tug boat from the aft stern. He also reported the vessel was at rest and not moving. This was very encouraging information for the recovery process. He also reported they were up against the sturdy seawall dock also a solid reference point. Moments after the ring drop incident it was decided to move the vessel forward to the next dock cleat another twenty plus feet.
I shared my thoughts, encouragements and concerns with over a decade of lost item recovery and over five hundred dives having a great deal of experience diving Lake Union for lost items my biggest concern was for how much trash and junk metal I would find in the waters of a very old industrial ship yard. I sent my prayers, and best wishes and said we just have to wait and see what the conditions are like when I dive down and conduct a proper search.
Watch this story and see the exciting recovery in action.

This Earring hunt began when I got a text from Carolyne saying, « I lost an earring in the Diamond Head area. Ring if you can help. » I asked if she had parking as this area was all condos with no street parking. She responded « Yes » The tide is high right now…It’s probably lost forever » I said, « No. Low tide is 6:30 » I’ll call you before I head over. When I arrived Carolyne directed me to the parking and escorted me to the beach entry. Her husband Mark was going to come down and walk me out to the area down the coast a bit. Carolyne had the other earring in a bag, so I scanned it on the Manticore and it was a 3-4 on the VDI. Mark took me to the search area and I told him it could take awhile so he didn’t have to stick around. I started the hunt and there were several iron pieces along the retaining wall I had to work through. The first possible target was a small chunk of Aluminum. The next target was a #10 on the VDI and to my surprise it was the stunning earring. Mark had started walking back to his condo when I yelled, « I got a gold earring with diamonds » and he came back quickly to confirm. He was in shock saying, « That’s it! » I found out it was actually lost two days prior so what a blessing it didn’t end up in the coral after at least 4 pounding high tides. The difference in the VDI had to be the earring Carolyne let me test was closed and the found earring was open. Good point to remember. When we got back to Carolyne she was obviously ecstatic after a successful recovery. A few hugs & handshakes and of course the smiles. Aloha to Carolyne & Mark!
I received a call from Mitali this Morning asking if I would be able to help her locate the engagement ring that flew off her hand in Bushel Park while she was brushing snow from her hands, the ring flew from her left hand after taking the trash to to the can
There was an area that she was sifted through, she searched the area but could not find the ring. I found the ring inches away from where Mitali had put hot water on the snow to melt the snow, we had just had 7 inches of fresh snow. She was very excited that I found the engagement ring.
Thank you, Mitali, for entrusting me to find your engagement ring.

This ring find began when I got a call from Dean who was on vacation from Newport Beach, California and enjoying his vacation on Kaimana Beach in Waikiki. The day before he had placed his ring in his towel and when he picked it up the ring flew out and disappeared into the fine sand of Kaimana Beach. Knowing Kaimana Beach is heavily detected and it was lost the day before I asked Dean to go to the beach and guard the lost area until I could get there. It was my lunch break so I knew I could get there in a few minutes and hopefully the ring hadn’t been found. When I arrived at the beach Dean & Rick were waiting. They showed me the area and I fired up the « BEAST ». First target #30 on the VDI. Boom! Dean’s awesome white gold & diamond ring was in the scoop. I was amazed how quickly it was found as the area was a few parking stalls in size. Back to work in record time and Dean’s family was so appreciative of the recovery. Aloha to Dean & Rick
Kari’s husband lost his titanium wedding band in the back yard of their beautiful Murfreesboro, TN home about a month ago when he was doing some yard work. They had spent countless hours searching for the ring, and even bought an inexpensive metal detector to use themselves. Kari was able to laugh when she said it was a much better noisemaker than a metal detector. Kari and her husband were somewhat certain the ring was somewhere in their backyard, but no idea where in the pretty expansive yard. I began a grid search and located the ring in just under 22 minutes. I offered to show Kari how to use the metal detector they bought in the event they needed to find another ring. She was quick to respond that she would much rather just call me for any future metal detecting needs. It is often that word-of-mouth recommendations are the best advertising there is.
Daryyl asked if I was able to locate her wearable frequency generator.
She had tucked it into her top before going out into the garden to spread bark, and while getting changed later that day, noticed it was missing.
After searching the garden, she decided to phone me.
I did some research into the construction, I had no bias for or against the theory behind it, I just needed to determine if there was any metal target inside.
There was a very fine gauge copper coil, not ideal if it was deep under bark – and a rechargeable internal battery, that’ll do!
Yes, I could certainly help.
Daryyl had to travel away but the coil was safe where it was, we arranged for the search the following weekend.
It was a relatively small area, however an excess of wire mesh around the garden and many nails holding the garden beds together (and rusting deep in the soil) meant it would have to be a very small coil to try and avoid multiple targets.
I did a quick scoping search with the 6″ coil, nothing other than foil seed packets, odd nails and screws and flecks of foil.
Step down to the 2″, time to go all surgical…
After about 30 minutes, I got a faint target tucked in under some Blueberries.
I pulled the bark back, chasing the signal.
About 10cm down, Daryyls missing device came into view, likely having fallen out as she leaned forward to spread the bark under the Blueberries.
I recommended she dry it out thoroughly before attempting a charge and having been subjected to only a bit of rain, I suspect it’ll be okay.
A phone call this morning led to a quick dash down to Sandy Bay to salvage a sentimental family gold ring lost during a surf lesson.
Fortunately the ring was lost in the dry sand and not in the sea – those recoveries are a lot more technical, this one just needed a systematic and thorough approach.
They did all the right things by marking the area and calling an experienced ringfinder immediately.
With the equipment already in the car from a recovery yesterday, I headed straight down, with the ring being found in a short time after starting the search – just inside the edge of the marked boundary.
A classic case of helping the Ringfinder help you.
