  1. The extremes are what I have as well...big scoops but you can have smaller ones custom made. Thanks for posting the pic ! strick
  2. I'll take a look at mine to see what I got...then get back. Probably not a problem in the dry... Most will just dump the scoop on the ground and give it a kick if its wet or damp no matter what size holes.. strick
  3. Yep money is no issue to some...we live in a world of instant gratification (at least here in the US) Could have probably had one by now if I wanted but my relationship with my dealer is more important. After all it's not like all my other detectors suddenly quit working strick
  4. You inspired me to subscribe...with back issues coming...Thanks from one Chuck to another. strick
  5. Amazing...were some of them in the same hold or were they scattered over a small area? Also where would the $5 gold coin ID on the e trac? I assume it would be similar to the 3030.. strick
  6. Yep I"m stuck in the bay area. The only good thing is there are lots of parks.. Pull tab and bottle cap land. strick
  7. There is a guy about an hour from me...I would not buy a CTX from him if he sold it for $1 Early on when I was looking into different detectors I called this fella. I had two detectors at the time...A Garret AT gold and a Garret ATX. Both I got from a nice dealer in the south bay. I was looking at maybe getting a 2300. So I call this guy north of me...and ask him about the 2300...he asks what I'm using at the moment...I tell him and then he asks where I bought them from? I'm thinking what do you care where I bought my detectors from? So I told him I bought them from Kellyco lol..partly because i could not remember the name of the fella in the south bay...So this guy then goes on to tell me that that I should just go and call Kellyco with any of my questions about my future detectors lol... I've bought many detectors and accessories since that day and he lost any chance of ever doing business with me. If you cant or dont want to help somebody then be nice about it...there is no reason to be a jerk to a complete stranger you dont even know. strick
  8. Theres a guy on Amazon who says his is freezing up already...I think the key to pinpointers is to have several so when one breaks you can go back to the truck for the other. Let us know how the Fisher holds up. Interested. strick
  9. Tom is a metal detecting magnet....he always finds the good stuff...still trying to get a grasp on all his gold coins...does he only use the one machine? strick
  10. Alright I'l try again...that hole is way too big..what the heck was going on there. strick
  11. Have anderson shaft for AT gold was going to do as you have done...thanks for showing it will work. strick
  12. It shows exactly where you were hunting.... strick
  13. Finally the 2300 we've all ben waiting for...My wife used the 7000 swing arm on the 2300...I got rid of the collapsable arm rest and put the one you have on yours...Much better to use that way..Nice work strick
  14. He wont let me quit...but might let me start working 4 days a week in the future.... guys a real stickler
  15. Love it...never get tired of chains...it's fun trying to pull them out of the turf without breaking them lol...I wish i would hunt water more but my boss wont let me get too far from work... strick
  16. Well Keith as Steve says thats why they call you Lunk...If anybody ever earned a big nugget it is you..You know how to use that ZED it's practically an extension of your arm..Congrats! Were all happy for you. strick
  17. Order all my detectors through the same dealer...never have to ask or beg...he treats me right...just sayin strick
  18. Reasonable prices for the quality..I just dont know how many will go the extra mile on something like that. Most of the guys I see still use canvas aprons lol strick
  19. Thanks Paul! I hear the TDI SL is weaker then the TDI pro. I have the Pro and it has proven itself to me on the beach. It's Deep. Bottle caps galore with that sucker...I can hunt wide open with my CTX then go back over it with the TDI pro and there are targets everywhere.....Run it with ground balance off for depth. Detector comparisons on youtube hunt with this machine from time to time. If the Equinox can offer some disc and be even remotely close with depth (Im dreaming here) then... strick
  20. Good stuff! Love that wreath looking thingy 5 pics up...kinda looks like gold strick
  21. I have no problem with bottle caps at the beach either...anyone who complains about digging bottle caps in the sand is a......well I wont go there ....but the parks in my neck of the woods are littered with zillions of them. People will take out the bottle but push the cap in the grass...in some places the detector nulls quiet for many yards before it recovers...and they dont get washed away like at the ocean...they just keep degrading until getting closer and closer to a low tone. I see that the nox goes very deep at the beach and I was wanting to try and do a comparison to the TDI pro...if it can even come close to the TDI then it's a no brainer strick
  22. Just speculating but he might have had one laying around? I have one that I will try and make work.. anything in particular that was difficult about the job? someone was saying that you have to drill a little hole in the carbon fiber shaft for the nipple in the handle to drop into. strick
  23. Thanks! the big necklace I found a couple months ago. The other stuff in the last two weeks. I've found jewelry hunting in parks to be a great way to relieve the stresses of every day life....Dig and Dig it relaxes the mind and allows you think...Its always a nice surprise when something nice pops out of the ground. strick
  24. Might as well hunt while I'm waiting for the Equinox. Some 10K and some 925. Why is it most of the good 925 chains I find say made in Italy? The wife is claiming the nice women's silver braided necklace and the gold bracelet lol. Almost threw away the little pendent thought it was junk weight less then a gram.... strick
