+seaglasspirates Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I wanted to plant a new micro and was wondering is this to small of a cache. I have never found this small and thinking it would be a challenge. Comments welcome Quote Link to comment
+cache_test_dummies Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Not too small at all. Is it waterproof? Quote Link to comment

+cache_test_dummies Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Not too small at all. Is it waterproof? Yes Good. I've found a few that weren't as wide as the staple shown in the picture. Quote Link to comment
Trinity's Crew Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I have found many caches smaller than that. As the cow (or maybe his avatar is a rabid pig) said if it's waterproof it's good. Please hide it under your nearest lamp post skirt. (Just kidding. I'm jealous! Quote Link to comment
+cache_test_dummies Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 As the cow (or maybe his avatar is a rabid pig) said if it's waterproof it's good. It's a cow. A rabid pig has a different tail, and considerably more drool. Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Not too small at all. Is it waterproof? Yes If that is one of those pill containers (and it looks exactly like the one I keep my meds in), it is not waterproof or even water resistant. Quote Link to comment
+Too Tall John Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 A rabid pig has a different tail, and considerably more drool. Kinda like this? Back on topic: Where'd you get such a container? If it's really waterproof, it looks interesting. Quote Link to comment
+EScout Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 That looks like the container holding a thumb ink pad that is stuck to the counter at every teller station at banks (here in SoCalif.) It snaps closed, and prevents the ink from drying out. It may not be waterproof for outdoor use, and after a while they do not stay closed too well. However, it is as good as many containers out there and not too small for some people to find. Quote Link to comment
+wesleykey Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 In Huntsville, AL this is a regular size cache. Quote Link to comment
+hide_from_the_kids Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 We have found a few that small or smaller, not too small at all! Quote Link to comment

I have never found this small and thinking it would be a challenge. Comments welcome Being on the 'end' of the scale I think micro are basically 'open' as to how small you can go and still be 'micro'. A rabid pig has a different tail, and considerably more drool. Kinda like this? Back on topic: Where'd you get such a container? If it's really waterproof, it looks interesting. To me it looks like sorta like half of a contact lens holder. but then I think those are usually linked in the middle with a 'bridge', some are screw on lids some just snap down.

lewis82 Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Until they make a new category for nanos (which I wouldn't reccomend, and which is not likely to be so), anything that is as small as or smaller than a 35mm film canister is a micro. Quote Link to comment
kurtisweltikol Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Looks fine. The containers I don't like are those small bison tube's in which you have to roll the log sheet for half of an hour. Although some of those containers have been some of the best finds I have ever seen. Quote Link to comment

+YeOleImposter Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Depending on your climate that container may or may not be waterproof -- so your placement will help keep the log dry. Also, that is not so small! Google 'evil micro cache' and see some really tiny ones. Quote Link to comment
+Bushlight Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Thats alot bigger than the one i found yesterday. Quote Link to comment
Trinity's Crew Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 A rabid pig has a different tail, and considerably more drool. Kinda like this? I'm literally laughing like an idiot at this picture. Co-workers are starting to look at me with way too much concern. I think a few of them have already dialed the 9 and the 1...

+seaglasspirates Posted September 13, 2007 Author Share Posted September 13, 2007 I stuck it in a glass of water 6 inches deep for a few hours and the log was bone dry. Quote Link to comment
