Thanks Andy... passable by 4 wheeler as in ATV or 4 wheel drive truck? When I left Canada I sold my Polaris (shown below) as I had a great offer on it, I'm kicking myself now... anyone on here have a Sportsman 850 or 1000 for sale?

 

Wow narrow gutted tyres ! Any good in the mud an slop ?

Thanx for the vid !   Cringed every time a vehicle oncoming passed on the left , covered wagon ?

Sounds like cowboys and indians !

Ha ha freezing ones dingly bits is right up there with finding no gold .

Minelab  Adelaide just called , 4500 bellybutton fitted along with a couple of other things and babys on the way home , done me two days ,got two nights then four days off .....Rushworth is on the the radar to  Mungass,s patch    

I wish Jen ! .not that lucky , headed away to Daylesford for ten days detecting a fortnight ago , then was to shoot across to Maryborough and meet up with my long time detecting mate and his brother from Geelong , and ended up with the jeep gearbox playing up, 125c pulling the van  and wheel alignment issues , spent 2 days in Bendigo , 2 days in Castlemaine   and nearly a thousand bucks on it ,then it rained and snowed for 3 days , then when I finally got out to pickpocket diggings had the on/ off switch on the 4000 crap itself , total time on ground 2 hrs for 4 targets one two foot deep but a 2x 1 piece of steel . packed traps and come home , bubble wrapped control box and sent it off to minelab for an updated 4500 switch 

You were doing the echo thing !

I was doing the echo ing  noise of out the bush , remember the sound of the woomera in crocodile dundee  echo ing across the scrub .?    

Anyway  hows ol mates form .?    Not a bad effort ,

Thanks Jen   and was actually sipping a Muscat ....   winter slurpies over here , cold as ya mother in laws kiss at the mo . Ha ha ha 

Yeah thats it Steve ! Thanks and oh you have already seen it , found it on an aussie fbook forum page , makes me cringe on what ive left , got a few targets to recheck at Rushworth  , the 4000 sounds a lot different to the 3500 which sounds much my old 2100 , cheers Jed 

yup, trying to take a video out of an email ,you tube actually ,    I,ll get it yet 

Na trying to edit and upload something but its not working 

This may surprise a few , and make some go back to places known .

jed martin sent you a video_ _Finally I Know The S.eml

  Yup Jen do notice , a lot more obvious on the pc compared to the 8x4 tablet , and why wouldn,t you .

Many moons ago when I was learning the poker machine repair trade or slot machines as you call them over there , I was with a small private business , and we repaired every board we could , money was money , and a jumper wire didn,t cost more than a couple of beers  unlike the Aristocrat board jockeys who were our competition ,  rip it ,  swap it ,  send it back to factory when box was full . ha ha 

was checkin a couple of curley chords off the 3500 a few weeks ago that didn,t  work , checked continuity and both had none at same pin , took a punt and  cut 3 inches off the most stretched end    and   bingo  problem solved , resoldered ends and when wires of offcut  were stripped back just for interest ,  both white wires in the leads  had breaks     ,mmmm  go figure , 

Notice anything on the photos ?

Yup  looks like ya had a couple of resistors removed ! 

mmm    hearin ya steve , left that forum for a similar reason , but ocassionally checked in , checked in to see if you had posted because you had not updated your magic haul  here couldn,t  believe the shite  an then deleted the other forum from favourites ,

 I don,t  quite understand  the modern world today , or maybe  forum mentality , anyway   carry on Mad Fish ,  I,ll nominate ya for THE MOBIL GOOD MOVE AWARD

Mate, if you love your dogs please don't even think of taking them along on a WA prospecting trip. The rangelands here in WA have got a major problem with wild dogs and dingoes, to the extent that some graziers have been driven off the land by their stock losses. 1080 baiting in the goldfields here is relentless for good reason and too many pet dogs have already been lost, some within minutes of getting out of the car.

Had no choice maltese had gme and couldn,t go to a kennel  . And airedale would have been muzzled out of the van . Both crossed the rainbow bridge early february ,

Yeah ,fair enough Steve , didn,t realise it got that technical , or trouble some for you , we,ll let that one go thru to the keeper ,,, jed 

N A S T Y ...    maybe you should name and shame  ,   I was going to head over with one bloke and his missus , but wasn,t allowed to bring the hounds ,then decided on the gold gypsies ,,   then ended up getting a new hip welded in , week 4 now , so its next year ,

mmmm    so are you saying its a WA based operater Tuna ?

you must need a new pair of flip-flops...good detecting with the (I assume) Monster!

fred

Crivens !!!   reminds me as a kid putting a garden fork thru me big toe whilst wearing them looking  for worms to go fishing in the vegie patch .  lesson learnt for life

Ha    flip flops   only heard of that for the first time on Discovery channel the other day watching deadliest catch .

here in Victoria they are called Thongs    or Japanese Safety Boots ;;

Magic   ,     awesome    speckies       WOW  

Speaking of cool, we have been -3,-2,-1 nearly every night and a max of around 12,s during the day, bloody frost fans in the surrounding orchards don't do much for a good nights sleep . we are back to a real winter of 30 years ago , the seasons seem to be turning back the clock . Jen do they do controlled burns over there ? as our parks mob here or just rely on mother nature ?

yes Charcoal ,nasty stuff !    .  when they advertise a burn here its like flys to a honey pot ;  a mate in the fireys that does burns told me every time they go to an area ; a regular lights up another in the proximity knowing it will get put out but will also open up the area he wants , but they can,t catch him  in the act .
