Steve Herschbach Posted May 16, 2017 Author Share Posted May 16, 2017 OMG! The coil just sold for $807.50 Now there is another one for starting bid $850 and "buy it now" of $1105.00 Seriously, no coil manufacturer is intrigued at all by this? If not for a White's why not for something just really popular? Like a BigFoot (figure 8) or Cleansweep (DD) for the Garrett AT series? Go where the numbers are. I still think Nokta/Makro is missing the bet here. Talk about generating some buzz with a Cleansweep DD type coil for the Racer series, for instance. Such a coil on the Racer 2 would be an excellent matchup. NEL, DeTech, Coiltek - hello, anybody home? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarvedArt Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 I know this is old, but I've translated the Russian diagram into English and included a photo of the inside of an MXT/DFX BIGFOOT: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MontAmmie Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Steve, you get the frowny-face emo for dangling "your" bigfoot coil out there, then snatching it away. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikePfeiffer Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Steve, why don't you and Carl start designing the "Bigfoot 2"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted August 29, 2017 Author Share Posted August 29, 2017 The design is not the problem, getting somebody to make them is. I kind of get why nobody wants to make the actual BigFoot design (too labor intensive), but nobody has ever given a clear explanation about why we can't get more Tesoro Cleansweep type coils. They are just a simple elongated DD coil. Perfect coil for the Garrett AT series and a large user base to buy them. I would think NEL or Detech in particular would be all over it.

Swampstomper Al Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I came across this the other day and it seems fitting for the thread.. It isn't the vid itself per se but rather what the sharp-eyed will see during the first 4 seconds and what's said & seen from 0:36 - 0:45 or so: Swamp 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been blessed with a bigfoot, so maybe it will still find stuff like that, I dunno. I know mine wouldn't with a stock coil. Regardless, I hope I can still swing mine at 89 years old. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
