Alluminati

Any idea what the lion might be from?

Here is a easy way to fix your shaft wobble, even if only temporarily. The male end of the middle shaft just needs a single layer of electrical tape.

The tolerances on the Minelab shaft are actually pretty tight. If it was any closer you might not be able to get it apart again. Anybody who has swung a Tesoro Knows those twist-locks only work for first assembly, lol

I've done this before with other machines except I used aluminum tape, time will tell how long the electrical tape will hold out. The tape in the picture has about 15 hours on it, so far it's OK. Besides, it's easy to replace.

Coincidentally when I took the machine apart for a cleaning and to take this picture, I noticed that Minelab made a similar raised surface on the lower fiberglass rod. The lower rod is so long that a little play really wouldn't translate into as much slop as the upper connection does.

Most of my gold gets sold, I put the nice old coins in flips and I'm thinking of making a couple of those illuminated shadow boxes this fall for some of my relics.

Yes its better then the AtPro, even the Xterra series has always been better then the ATPro never mind the multi freq Mineslabs.

The Equinox is the lighter, waterproof Etrac that smacks gold better machine that we've all been waiting for.

Add in the adjustable recovery speed of Deus...
