It might be possible to restore those coil wires , but I wouldn't go too overboard with trying to replace the cable. The coils might fail anyway.( BUT maybe NOT !)π€ Your shrink wrap idea sounds like a good try at sealing the outer coating IMO. It wouldn't have to be one continuous piece... There are variations on shrink that have a sealant inside ! There is also a product sometimes called liquid electrical tape that would work on the shrink joints too.~$5-10 for a tin. Available at an auto pts or even wally's . I think it's the same stuff that they used to sell for dipping tool handles in. Or the stuff that is advertised by sealing a boat with a screen bottom......( Not getting into brand names.)π Another product that could prove useful is the self sealing tape that is intended for things like radiator hose leaks. Good luck on the rescue ! Looking forward seeing your results. OH , one other thing if you decide to just go with electrical tape. I will give a brand name on this one...Scotch 88 , worth the extra price to this old road tech.

rvpopeye replied to schoolofhardNox's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
sohN 24" ? that's not black sand , you hit oil ! π€ Lots of the old familiar junk but it seems like there's always some treasure no matter where you're hunting . Or which detector you're using.π You do realize that I've developed expectations when you post a hunt ? π If I get to a beach and see you leaving , I expect I'll just keep going !π€ Keep on keepin' on ! You're an inspiration to this old pirate .π -
