... that's right Tim. It's simple backyard shed jobs that have resulted in some amazing discoveries. Take for example the "splitting of the beer atom", that has added froth to our beer .

We Aussies are an inventive lot. Even if our "better halves" don't always approve

Well done ShaneW

I also like "backyard science experiments" . So in the light of this finding, I agree with trout1105 assessment. That the "ding" in darge's coin may have been caused by an airgun pellet.

Nice work!



Although, if it were Mythbusters, they'd being saying "OK - we know what it wasn't", and looking around for a pellet gun ....
