That is expensive. Hoping to just find a writing diagram from someone. Thanks.

Thanks, I used to teach wood shop but after becoming disabled I sold my own complete wood shop. Just trying to sell them as is but I also thought of the craft path but that is not happening. Thanks.

Thank you. I did not mind either!

Not great but ok for an hour out. 1 Wheatie 1930 1 Indian head 1891 1 Musketball

Had no idea. Will do, Thanks!

Thanks. Looking forward to getting out more.

I have 3 batches like this. I just listed one on CL for 175.00. Almost all iron items with some brass, ceramic etc. Priced too low? Too high? Going to be getting rid of all my old finds soon. Any ideas, opinions are good to hear. Thanks.

I am in the same boat as I became disabled and have not hunted for six years but I have a DFX 300 and a DFX which are now for sale and I bought a Minelab Equinox 800 it is like night and day

Possibly. I may try that thanks.

Loved my DFXs. If I could I would use them solely again. Too heavy for me now. Thanks.

Great, thank you.

Got out for a little while today before the bad weather coming. This 800 is a button monster! 10 buttons.

Will try to get to it later. Thanks.

I have just returned to detecting after 6 years and am disabled. I used my DFX and DFX 300 (which I just bought before the injuries) previously and have now found they are too heavy for me. I now have a Minelab EQ 800 and have stopped using these two Whites. The DFX300 is mint for sure and the DFX is also in great shape. Trying to find comparative values before posting in classifieds. Saw one on Ebay. Any ideas? Thanks.

Thanks. Felt good but next day was all couch! Little by little.

Thats for sure

Thanks everyone. I will be trying my best to get out. I just sat on the ground quite a few times taking the middle of a farm field all in again. Been too long.

Thanks. Felt good to get out a little bit. I cannot see the date but here is a closer look.

I had been detecting for over the 25 years with many good finds and good times. Went to many organized hunts, meetings and belonged to 2 clubs. Caught an autoimmune as well as a neck/head injury which has made me make some huge changes. Was a fishing guide for 22 years, gave that up, sold the boat, sold the truck, played in a band etc etc. Finally after 6 years the Drs all keep telling me "you need to get out and move around if only for a little while". I tried with my DFX 300 which was just bought prior to this, but it was to heavy to swing for me. Tried my regular DFX, the CZ20 with the belt and nope, nothing worked (they both for sale now). My wife talked to a friend of mine who I used to hunt with and he recommended the Minelab 800. Well, it is much lighter for me and I was able to get out for 1 hour the other day. She also bought me a Lesche digger that was the exact height as my walking sticks to which I use that as my walking stick now. Worked out well. Hopefully little by little I can add some time but for now even a little is great for me. Here is a pic after my first time out in 6 years with the new 800. Take care everyone. There is always someone else worse off somewhere and never give up!
