Broken Pipes – What Would You Do?
Metal Detecting Scenario #4
You finally got permission to metal detect at a spot that you’ve been wanting to detect for a long time. You are detecting in a nice yard of an expensive home while the occupants are away.
After a couple of hours you get a nice sounding signal and decide to dig it. This particular tone sounds so sweet that you can not wait to see what it is!
Unfortunately, After digging six inches down you notice that your target is actually a brass fitting for a lawn irrigation system. Your shovel just misses the brass fitting but it pierces the PVC pipe!
Water erupts out of the ground and is shooting straight up in a five foot tall geyser.
Uh ohh! Now what do you do?
