  1. Try Keene boots. I’ve been using them for a long time. Very comfortable and hold up well. Any model without metal eyelets.
  2. Thanks Valen’s. Been knapping about 5 years. ,
  3. GotAU, I mostly use the 17” mono , very sensitive to small deep gold. Knapping, your frame of mind: it’s only a rock. To be successful u have to break one now & then.
  4. Thanks Gerry, hope the axiom u sent does as well.😉
  5. Thanks Gerry, hope the axiom u sent does as well.😉
  6. Happy with the 6000. Goes deeper than I expected. The picture of the hole shows depth on the 3.37 gram nugget that is on the coil. Total weight of all these nuggets is 7.6 grams. Fun finding.
  7. Have thoroughly enjoyed the info and people on this forum. Count me in please. Thanks for all you do Steve.
  8. Thanks Paul. You’re always good for a smile. Reminds me of what the neighbor said about the pacer. Won’t be able to play poker because the garage door will go up and down every time you get a good hand. It’s also real nice to know you get along good with yours. Nothing beats hearing from those that have experience to let you know the pros and cons. Thanks to all for giving time and consideration.
  9. Geof_junk, thanks for your info. Good to know you got along fine and to watch out for the magnets. Appreciate you and all that chimed in.
  10. G350Platinum, like you this is my first post but I’ve been a member several years. This forum is full of good info and good people. You have already contributed some good info regarding the pacemaker. Not everyone will need that info but I sure appreciate all the responses I’ve gotten on this topic. Chase, HTH in a big way! Once again you’ve given direct, no b.s. info. Joe D. and Steve thank you for your experience and willingness to help. Very reassuring. Beats being told “get it or die”. 😆 Full disclosure at risk of making you or MtRon mad. I am MtRon’s wife posing as MtRon. Didn’t mean to be deceptive but it feels that way now. I should have stated that at the beginning. Thanks for all the info.
  11. Thanks for the good info. I was aware of store and airport detectors and know not to linger around them. Just wonder about using a detector all day. Also was told not to keep my cell phone in my front left pocket. That leads me to wonder about Minelab batteries worn close to the pacemaker. I have mine on my back which will put it too close. Joe D. , Good to hear your 85 y. o. Dad gets along fine with his pacer. Does he metal detect? Steve, thanks for giving us this great forum resource. Much appreciated.
  12. I just had a pacemaker installed and I’m having trouble finding info on using my metal detectors with it. Just wondering how the detector batteries and EMI will affect my pacemaker. Maybe the only thing I’ll have to worry about is whether it will implode if I swing across a really big nugget? 😳 Hopefully I can keep detecting with no problems from the pacemaker or my heart! Thanks for any input. P. S. I understand if anyone is hesitant to answer because of liability issues. That’s one reason I’m having trouble getting info including from Minelab. Can’t blame anyone for that. Just general info or experiences from anyone that has a pacemaker would help. My doctor has a bad “bedside manner”. The one time I met with him before he slapped it in me was frustrating. He had a standard response to my questions. “Get it or you die”. He is a highly skilled and highly recommended jerk. Maybe I can get some answers on my follow up app’t but not counting on it.
