The dragging is gone with this because of the big wheels i may screw a bottle holder from a push bike to put a Thermos of hot coffee ......i ll in the warmer month strap a camel back with 1.5l of h20.The bottle part of the troller need to be wider to accomadate and hold the digging tools whatever they are ,a cut plastic drum or bucket will do i believe,best think was the price $20 inc postage :) RR -

Hello to all, Sunday and Monday i hit the coast in search of long lost treasure,still with my mate Fred and his nox and big coil Sunday night not much a copper ring for him,and a deep old copper penny for me.On Monday we hit another beach as we are still testing in real condition Nox Vs MDT. I was using my work in progress sand trolley(golf trolley which i will mod) a scoop and a spade were mounted on it. 4.30 hours didn't bring much luck to both of us my tally for the day was 0.70 pence ππππ.We were leaving and really pushing hard to get something good when i had a whisper signal ALL POSITIVE numbers ,after god knows how many spadeful came out this beast of a coin,the largest and heaviest coin i ever found and.......on a beach!!!!! It is a 5 kopecks from Catherine the Great Empress of Russia . Fred say i won the trophy find of the day very very unusual find on the beach,by the way my 50cal cases story is going around and they are now very very scarce on that spot and 3 in a row is a record finds in more than a decade...... So far the MDT is growing on me my nox may need to go soon... Have a nice week RR

Hello to all,went this morning to the 50cal cartridge spot i knew more less were to focus .I decided to take 2 tools to dig (mistake)once i arrived midway the blue tooth started to play.I had to go back to the car take the Tarsacci Headphones and left the spade and kept the sand scoop. It was rainy ,windy plus sand flying all over the place,the main spot stayed exposed only 30min.......but the first signal was : A IMMERSION PUMP........ Second was a 50 cal cartridge and thought i was on a roll ,same as yesterday all targets where staying on the hard layer around 30/40cm once reach it is hard work and i still think i need 2 tools because the beach good spots are 15min from the car park. Anyway the coins were sharp signals the iron copper pennies give a funny ID and were not deep(a spade would have been better),all the shrapnells were as deep as the 50 cal and positive all the way. Now while i learned few lessons today regarding my kit,and were i need to improve. I really think the MDT once master gonna be the beach machine for me i just need to find a deep ring to be 100% confident. I am sharing those pics as a beginner will no Golds rings everywhere and Piles of silver coins it is only harsh reality here pounded beaches.......... Enjoy RR

Hello Today i went to a Sandy beaches which has been popular since the 50s but also hit hard (as most of the beaches are).I took my MDT as i was told it was a potentially good beach for PI but i wanted ti try the Tarsacci 1st as it is Tarsacci week in the RR house.Anyway first target was the stainless tube which gave me a shit reading but i dug to keep myself warm. Then came 1 whisper in my headphones with positive ID took me 5 minutes to dig and the 1st 50cal cartridge was out then same signal and same target really deep maybe at 40/45cm (15").The copper deep too maybe deeper but could mesure as it was a fight to take it out, the hardest was i only took the spade. While digging those deep stuff i realise they were on a layer of crushed and broken shell under 35/40cm of sand,i shall be back there tmw God willing RR

Well done!!! RR

Hello to all,i own a lot of machine but the MDT is growing on me .Went for a session with my mate Fred last night ,Fred has found tons of stuff and kilos of gold . Last night we went to a beach near our place,for a comparative test: Fred (45 years of beach combing) with his NOX big coil and 2.5 years of everyday with it vs Tarsacci and my meagre experience with it(3 hoursππ ).Well every target found by one was found by the other except the fuse i had a solid but very stable 04 and the nox was telling it was crap,very deep in the dark sand .We were far from the beach on the low tide line but lots of large iron still,some targets had to be left as we only took spades .This beach is hammered but i dug all funny signals(remenber i dont know the machine very well) The MDT will detect steel wire,nails and staple but with a negative number,basically like using a pulse with discrimination.Stable and well balance ,tones are still funky to my ears but i am sure i will get used to. I has been years since i had such fun with a machine early maybe but can't wait to try it more....... Now (I WILL EDIT THIS POST DEPENDS WHERE I POST IT),the price can be seen has high ,but we all love Artisan like baked cakes,coffees,small batch clothes or custom cars well i consider the MDT has one of those production unit.Made with care and tech. At the end of the day if noone had bought the 1st XP ADVENTIS with aluminum box maybe the Deus will have never seen the light. GO Tarsacci GO!!!! RR Machine own: Modded Lobo ST(2) 5.75 coil/F75DST snake coil/Deus/Modded SSabre2 with4"coil/ Modded Goldscan5c from Pulsepower ,Goldbug pro ,Nox800 ,xterra 705/Laser Scout 4: coil /Tarsacci MDT8000/Minelab Sovereign/Fisher 1266X/XP GMP

Hello did 2.5 hours on a quiet beach tonight to have a feel of the machine,it was fun,once GB i started in mix by mistake then i turn into AM . I like the tones and the capacity to ID iron.Took some pics the 50 cal remains is probably from a Bomber during WW2 as this area of UK saw a lot of action......Wireless headphones used:MARSHALL wireless transmitter TROND this kit comes from my G5c.So far it looks powerful enough on large and medium stuffs Enjoy RR
