  1. WoW !!!!!!!!!!!!!------- Outback Yank's Goldfield Tours------ hahaha She's a beaut mate!!!!! We need to get all them seats out so I can have plenty of room to set up the crusher and the sluicer........🤠 🤑👨‍🦯🍻 and at least two full size fridges!!!!!! Put some of the seats in the shed! I am so ready to be back.... and that aint no lie! Will that big DeWalt spin off those lug nuts??? You know me and flats...
  2. Big time! Same issues.. i had to start using a Vaseline type grease... heavy grease .. petroleum Like the original. Every night.. I hate using it but I get to the point where I can’t walk.... I even got cellulitis two months ago when I jumped in a horse trough with all the primordial soup that was brewing in it.... So it ain’t no joke... Never happens in WA that I remember.... must be a different type “dry” heat🤠🤣
  3. Alaska is big.... that’s true Steve! I remember when I first went there on a contract with the VA that I took a trip on the weekend. I went from Anchorage up through Talkeetna and Denali, worked my way over to Fairbanks. Then I made my way down past North Pole and onto Glennallen and slept there. Then I came on back to Anchorage via the road along the Matanuska glacier. When I went back to work I was bragging on how much a Alaska I had seen over the weekend. My buddy who is a VA policeman just chuckled and took me into a board room and showed me a map on the wall. This map covered the whole wall ....it was a big map of Alaska. When he showed me the tiny circle I had made on my trip I was amazed that my three day trip covered only about one square foot of the map!!! That’s how big Alaska is. Hey Steve.... I even ran into you up in Chicken that next year... and I thought that was the end of the world from anchorage.
  4. C'mon mate!!! Where's your pre_early adopter attitude !!! Damn the torpedoes!!!--- Full speed ahead !!!!!!!!!!!
  5. I may have my friend in Dubai snag one for me and ship it over 🤠
  6. Ismael--- 3500 mod ---quieter.... should have kept it...lol
  7. I have no idea what it cost to get them up and running or replaced...but you could pm him... I know there was a lot of very frustrating downtime while in OZ trying to get on the gold with no ZED. A premade connector makes a lot of sense, right?
  8. I know of two ... both were the same man... well documented on the forum when it happened.... no big deal... people will decide which they want to buy... let the coils speak for themselves with performance... 6000 will end all this 😆
  9. Mine got dead pixels too,, it is fairly common i think... Got it fixed in US or swapped ?? I hit mine with the tip of the pick when it glanced off a rock Check with ML USA--- try to relax... enjoy..
  10. The NF 16” round spoked... light as a feather and deadly deep as an elliptical.... Lord knows I’m missing using it right now😭
  11. North GA area??? -- I would seriously save up some gas money and spend it driving to AZ and spend a week or two detecting there--- I cant imagine detecting for nuggets the east--- its difficult enough in the western state...! BTW I am from east tennessee--- If i were not able to travel away from the east (for whatever reason) I would be coinshoting and relic hunting--- maybe even down to the panhandle of Fla and do some beach hunting-- Just being real---- Good luck on whatever you choose----
  12. Looking good mate!!! Here is the link to the original 4wd thongs on Amazon--- they are out of size 12 right now so i will have to wait for the Taskmaster's and mine---- Not sure how they would get on without the extra Vibram sole I used , but that can always be added at a cobbies later---- Keep digging! https://www.amazon.com/Spenco-Canvas-Sandal-Straw-Medium/dp/B005FZJNP8/ref=sr_1_12?dchild=1&keywords=spenco&qid=1609172607&rnid=2941120011&s=apparel&sr=1-12 They arent as expensive on Amazon as they were in the shop!
  13. Well MY pacer (2nd one) seems to affect the amount of gold I find.... i can’t seem to find enough since I had them put in...... .... course I didn’t find enough before I got them either 🤠 seriously, if i leaned over my coil on the 7000 while digging one out.... it would let me know I was too close. Other than that, no worries mate!
  14. By the way, here’s a package I received yesterday evening from my mates over in FNQ.. the Dave Wright and his son Jakie plus the rest of this extended family.. took me in like a member of the family. Another good mate Norvic took me in and let me use his home.. There are others, but they are too smart to want to be associated with me on the internet... 🤣 Anyway thanks Jakie!!! The XLs fit perfectly!
  15. No worries mate I get close to you when I’m in Meeka, but have never made the trip up to the station. Maybe the next year. i can only watch so many YouTube videos of that red dirt and hearing the wash gravel when someone is getting close. ✔️ i love that . Or when I hit the cap and my arms vibrate.. hahaha 🤠 If you change your mind I have to get the” Taskmaster” another pair. Should have known he could destroy them. Hope you have a great year!!! Lots of weight mate!
  16. I wonder if they made the battery holder the right size this time.... 40% smaller 🤠
  17. Taskmaster has blown up the thread with the date format.... I can see him laughing now with tears rolling out his eyes!!!
  18. I had them made by a cobbie in WA.... that’sWashington State they started out as good leather soles, but like you say WA has some sharp rocks and such so I had him glue on the Vibram sole.. works a treat! Expensive,,,, but so is the 7000... and you can’t use it if your feet are buggered had no issues with anything going thru these...
  19. Here’s a couple of pairs The Taskmaster and I used in WA... They work a treat We call them 4wd thongs Really easy to get them off when you smashy your big toe
  20. Looks like lots of water moves thru there during the monsoon season.... go for a walk about and dont swing high and wide like I do....
