    Richard @ Backwoods Detectors = Awesome!

    I bought a used E-Trac from Richard and I couldn't be happier with the deal. His communication, fast shipping, and overall professionalism are top-notch. He told me the detector was in great condition, and it's really in like-new condition. He's a stand-up guy and great to deal with. Thanks...

    WTB: "The MXT Edge" by Jeff Foster

    My local dealer does not carry "The MXT Edge" by Jeff Foster, so I figured I'd check to see if someone has one that they'd like to part with, before I order one online. Send me a message if you can help out. Thanks.

    WTT: 4.5x7" EXcelerator II for Eclipse 5.3 or Super 12

    I have a 4.5 x 7" EXcelerator II search coil with cover. As you can see in the pictures below, it is in great shape. This coil will work on an MXT or DFX, and possibly other Whites models. What I want is an Eclipse 5.3 search coil or a Super 12 search coil for my MXT. It must be in great...

    Neutral Buoyancy Coil

    I am building a coil for a PI, and am using the Hays Electronics 11" O.D. open search coil housing. I am looking for suggestions on the best way to make the coil neutrally buoyant in salt water. You get extra points if the coil still remains relatively lightweight.

    Surf PI Pro Case Repair

    I posted this over in the Modifications forum, but I figured I'd post it here too for a little more exposure. While modifying my Surf PI Pro to accept a 10 cell battery holder, I made a stupid mistake and put a little nick in the black plastic case on the smooth surface right where the seal...

    Surf PI Pro Case Repair

    While modifying my Surf PI Pro to accept a 10 cell battery holder, I made a stupid mistake and put a little nick in the black plastic case on the smooth surface right where the seal goes. It's not very deep, and is about the width of a small scratch, but is likely bad enough not to get a good...

    Whites Surf PI Pro Straight Shaft

    I built a straight shaft for my Whites Surf PI Pro. I used 7/8" polished aluminum tubing, a bicycle handlebar extension and hand grip. The arm cuff is stock. Total cost for the materials was about $35.00. I mounted the control box behind the arm cuff to see how it balances. I may take it...

    Water Scoop Handle

    A user in another forum posted a link to a Backsaver Grip that is used on yard tools. It looked like a good fit for a water scoop, so instead of having a handle welded to my scoop, I purchased one from Ace Hardware to try out. I replaced the hardware to hold the handle on with stainless steel...

    Help with my new (to me) Whites Eagle Spectrum

    Here's the story... I don't have enough money to buy a new high-end machine, so I decided to buy an old high-end machine, the Whites Eagle Spectrum. I've only heard great things about this machine, aside from the weight, but that won't be an issue. So, I picked one up off of eBay and received it...

    PSPICE Model :throw:

    Does anyone know if there is a method to simulate an object passing a search coil in a circuit simulator, such as SPICE or PSPICE (OrCAD)? I imagine Eric Foster, Mr. Bill or another one of you electronics pros have perhaps tried something like this? Thanks for any input!

    Whites Surf PI Pro Questions :confused:
