I go through this crap fest every time a detector goes to the masses.

I feel for you guys who go thru this.  I did get a chuckle out of your sarcasm in the post above 😄.

I’d check your Hubs!  Water/sand gets in them and eats your bearings up!  Probably, could use repacking with grease anyways!

I would go a little farther and replace fluids. (both diff's, transfer case, trans, and oil.)  This is why I don't do water crossings anymore. 

I am glad to hear that you made it out OK but I hope you realize how lucky you are.   

Nice video thanks for posting it here.  Congrats on the gold also.

Kudos to you-I think your one of the few dealers to serve your customers before yourself 

My thoughts exactly.

I’ve search thru Steve’s Forum on how to delete that!

Should be in your profile.  Click your name at the top right of the page then edit profile.  Good luck with your new Dealer.

So what happen to Rim Rock Detectors?

I ended up with 5 pieces with my 800

That's not bad at all.  Congrats.

Nothing like fresh clean crisp air to clear the brain.  Enjoy your vacation.

has anyone used any other source here in the USA to have one of these made. I did do some soldering making wiring harnesses for marine radios but don’t think the wires were anywhere near as fine and it was 50 years ago.

You can try and call these guys.  They are in Vegas.    https://www.knextec.com/      

Never under estimate the value of a good dealer.  I wouldn't buy a gold detector from a relic hunter dealer just like I wouldn't buy a Toyota from a salesman who drives a Ford.

Congrats on the gold.  106 is just a little to warm for me. LOL

Congrats Jeff and thanks to all who post.

You waited 12 years, when all you had to do was call me!

You never know what I have sitting on my shelves until you ask.

Doc

I've seen pictures of your warehouse and many years ago I was on my way to Rye Patch and when I was going over the hoover dam I remembered that I left my battery on the kitchen table which was almost 6 hours away so I found your shop when you were still in Vegas and was very lucky that your employee was still working.  The shop was closed but he hooked me up and I couldn't believe how much you had in stock.

You were the guy for Walco and coiltek back in the day.

This is very generous of you Jerry. 

Congrats on the gold Rob.

There is a lot of excitement and I expect this to be a super, hot selling metal detector once it's readily available (hopefully before the US cooler, winter season).

End of August would be perfect for me.  Getting too hot in southern AZ.

Clark look into the DOC's hat.  It's not the sexiest looking hat but it does keep it you cool and keeps the sun off and nowhere near $90 LOL

Costco has these on sale right now https://www.costco.com/hang-ten-men’s-long-sleeve-sun-tee.product.100701368.html   They are cheaper in the store.  

I think you will have that cover well before you see a 6000.  LOL   I am also considering putting the cart in front of the horse.  Thanks for the link.

Congrats Rob.  

Just FYI

 If you order from https://www.opolar.com/products/2019-new-opolar-battery-operated-air-duster   and use opolar20 promo code the price is $45.60 with free shipping.   I purchased this last week but the 20% code still works as of today. 5/16/21

Highly recommend this.  No metal.

As far as the shirts go.  I have a bunch of 5.11's and Under Armour's and Columbia's all with sun block.
