Weld covering seam where fingers meet strengthens sonic sampling core catchers

When some Geoprobe® Sonic Core Catchers weren't lasting as long as they should during sonic sampling, a customer called in and suggested a small weld to the core catchers to cover the seam where the fingers meet. Team Geoprobe® immediately acted on the idea, sending revised parts to the customer who praised their performance. Thanks to communication from customers in the field, Team Geoprobe® initiated the revision to all future parts in order to provide the best possible soil drilling equipment.
