We can't find it either and nanos on machinery have really lost their appeal Time to call it quits on this one.
There was 3 of us looking and no win. And two DNF before me, do u think its still there?
Search hi and low with eyes andhand. Had lots ofrain and wind. No cache hete
There was a couple of places where we thought it should have gone but after thoroughly inspecting the machine we DNF ... We hope it's still there
Getting cold and dark. Need to learn some more about where to look for this little critters.
I'm on holiday in the south-west corner of WA with Triciac2 Day 5 of our trip and we spent it exploring from Bunbury down to Ngilgi Cave. As our host had never been geocaching before we joined her on her usual morning walk, and found us 4 caches She knew of this old plough, but couldn't believe there was a cache on here Very pleased we found it TFTC, rjm1.
With IlanthaK on holidays,in your wonderful part of the world. We visited the beach, wetlands, bush, did the tree top walk, etc. great time. Heather climbed the Gloucester tree. The other member of the "team" held the handbags....... Enjoying all the towns with an "up" in the name. We were even given a list of their meanings.
Enjoying the river walk, here in Bunbury. Clever hide. TFTC

Did take us a while to find this micro due to there being so many possibilities available. Sorry not to have signed it at the beginning where it should have been done but due to a rather heavy downpour we had to hurry somewhat. Certainly a good relic of the times gone by. TFTC rim1 and giving us a chance to see it.
Thanks for the hide. Found Sunday morning when the muggels were less than my previous vist.
Wasn't too hard a find once used my secret weapon. Glad to have another town one off the list
Easy find by 6yr old geoson. Didn't pull out log as it looked rusty except for very top. Interesting place for plow. TFTC
Keep finding this one. We will fix the log in a couple of weeks when we are able to get there.
log is definitely full. I inserted a bit of paper so I could sign something but nothing else is fitting in there.
What better way to spend your friends (OOH YEH) wedding anniversary than to tag along on their planned day to geocache in Bunbury....
With 3 pairs of eyes & 6 hands searching we located the evil nano.

Today was our wedding anniversary so we decided what better way to celebarate the day LETS GO GEO CACHING.......Skippy46 said two's company three is better so we decided to head down Bunbury way.Had a great day 51 finds and only one DNF. Quick find TFTC....
Second go at this one. Spent quiet so time last time but today had it within thirty seconds. The shine from where the paint had worn off the nano caught my eye.
Thx rjm1. Oh i had a real challange. Finally located cache and dropped it. I then took twenty minutes to find it. Did not log on as log is badly stained and looking frail.
A few minutes of bending and craning paid off. I didn't try to remove the log as, like previous loggers, I feared I'd damage it. tftc.
Was about to give up, then my cache parter found it! Very small indeed. Did not attempt to remove the log, needs a little work as its in super tight.
Had a look for this one while geowife was shopping in nearby Target.
Spent ages looking thoroughly without luck, was just about to call it quits with one last check and managed to find it by feel, hidden away where i was sure i had already checked. Could not extract log roll without damaging, stuck in tightly and started to fall apart as i tried to get out, did not have my tweezers on me today, so did not sign. Needs new id say. Tftc

Persistence does pay off. Looking too far into it but got there in the end. Log full
This one had been somewhat elusive, but I was determined to find it this time round. Fortunately, very few muggles were around today, but the lbj still wasn't easy to find. But persistence paid off, and I now have my smiley face on this one. TFTC

Wonder what this is doing plonked in the edge of the carpark? Found the nano but think this is the cache where the log was full. Don't quote me on that though. The camo was wearing off but I replaced the nano so mostly brown was visible. Thanks for the cache rjm1.
We almost gave op on this one before finally spotting it lurking in the shadows. Interesting structure!. TFTC
You might call it a LBJ, but I can think of other names for it - not nice names either!! Look as we did, we couldn't find it. Noticed that previous cacher logged that he had hidden it in slightly different spot to where he found it. So who should we blame for our second DNF of the day - the cache owner, the previous finder, or ourselves? Not happy Jan! Will have to return another day, maybe...
Found with friends trying out their new GPS and Geocaching.
2 of 6 for the morning of a sample of caches in the Bunbury central area
This relict is not only out of place it is almost hidden and forgotten.
Found cache very exposed so replaced out of view but not difficult to locate.
Thanks for the cache "rjm1"

A quick find with FelixII. Fun Fun Fun. Very nice to have a day off driving and to sit back and be chauffer driven to this cache.
Yep, glad FelixII was here for this one. Insert nano rant here:
Bloody Nanos! Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who sells Nanos.

Thanks to rjm1 and clear skies from TeamAstro.

Great cache, but it appears to be wet or just delicate to write on. Thanks all the same.
Found it on my holiday when I visit my Czech mate in Bunbury T4TC from Czech republic
Nice find on a massive caching day around Bunbury. We parked at the info centre (free parking) and walked over to a few nearby caches.
This took far too long to find. Finally Mrs Felix spotted the little sucker. It is definitely looking more silver than brown these days. Perhaps some touch up paint?
Great hunt for our 1600th find.

Yay! Found second time around after a bit of a search. The bin has disappeared since I was here last! TFTC
Geoson and geodad found this one pretty quickly. it's a bit rusty and the log is also rusty!

A sneaky LBJ that became evident just I was about to give it up. Cleverly placed and blending in with the surroundings. Had a run in with the vegetation and had to walk back to the car on the other side of the road with blood all over my right hand. Cleaned up and drove to GZ and completed the task.
Great place for a cache would have never found this place if not for geocaching.
we crossed at the lights wondering where was this bit of farm machinery we were supposed to be searching on was. Around the bush, and there is was!
This turned out to be a good thing as it sheltered us from passing muggles.
Thanks, Robmc.

There is enough bush cover here to allow two cachers a reasonable amount of searching privacy. Took us a little while until Rob spotted it.
Thanks rjm1

Found this ages ago but was unable to log due to technical difficulties. Revisited with mr smith.
Definitely out of place - what an odd place to put a cool piece of equipment - especially chained to a bin! Couldn't find the cache though
Though it would be very hard to find but was only a few minutes. Maybe just lucky
We have looked at a little brown job like this in Margaret River and had no success with that one either!
Within minutes, found by CookieRob, we had a few hours caching with Annastasia, and Barjgods , TFTC
We nearly gave up but spied it as we began to turn away, TFTC.
*Signed our log as ILT.

Log is full. I had to sign it under Senncorp's May entry. No other space available.
The log is full and we are unable to do anything about it at present. We should be able to fix this in about three weeks.
Third time lucky. Last two visits brought down the rain on me. Sunny this time and found quite quickly. Log is full.

This is the second time we went looking for this cache.
This time it was found quickly. It makes us wonder how we missed it last time we were down here.
Its stuck out like a thumb...maybe a very small thumb.
Thanks for the hunt

This is a good hiding spot for a micro - in the middle of suburbia, yet nicely tucked away from most muggle traffic. The three of us had several passes over the plough before Mr AusTrackers came up with the well camoflauged little blighter. Thanks for the hunt rjm1.
11/09/2010 13:07 Found: A quick find on this one and a good camo job on this micro too. Found this at 1305 with the spur of the moment caching team put together at the event of myself, the_robots, Mickeydv and col117.

Found on a Bunbury caching day with urch. With three sets of eyes looking it didn't take long before it was found. Surprising how well camouflaged it is though. TFTH rjm1.
Took me a while and had a chat with a muggle. Tftc!! Just saw two dolphin near by. Such a cool area.
