    My 1st IH Cent

    I got this on a hunt with Terri (Echostar61) yesterday when we hunted an old church (Friends Meeting House). It's a 1901 & I'm tickled to death.....looking forward to finding something else I never have. Sorry about the poor quality pics, but the coin is in great condition.. Also found this...

    Ace 250 & mode

    I'm curious as to what mode you all hunt in & why. Try & be as detailed & specific as you can please. I mostly coin-shoot, and hunt in either coin mode, or all-metal if I'm in a spot that might hold relics. Does your mode (or discrimination) change depending on your choice of coil size? I'm...

    Hey Echostar61

    Did you have a nice trip??? I heard the flight was alittle rough, and you had quite a bumpy landing :poke::rofl:::rofl::rofl: Smitty PS- To everyone else, there's a "story" behind this. I'm just trying to make Terri's face as red as her hair :punch:

    The Gauntlet has been thrown.......

    Terri (Echostar61) and I are going out Friday for some long-overdue :twodetecting:. It's going to be the 1st day it hasn't rained in several, and we've got snow in the forecast for Saturday. So here's the deal, she's been threatening to outhunt me.........but we shall see, it's Garretts vs...

    Battery Questions

    I've been wondering a few things regarding batteries & detectors. Here's my questions: 1- How much of a role did battery type/size/cost play in the purchase of your MD, if any? 2- Do you use throw-aways or rechargable. 3- If rechargables, is it a battery "pack" that is specific for your MD...

    Will it work? Sod Plug Cutter.....

    Made it out of a cut-down caulking gun & a 5" piece of 2.5" exhaust pipe. The idea is to stomp it into the ground, pull the gun out containing the plug, and squeeze the handle. Will it work? Too wet to try this week. Smitty

    Help on M-Scope 1265-X

    This is one of my dads MDs (other is an old Garrett I've inquired about on that forum), and I was wondering about it & had a few questions. I'm hoping to get him "set-up" & able to MD next spring. He bought both these MDs, but hasn't used them in years. He's 85 and can't remember how to operate...

    Help on older Garrett

    My dad had a previous interest im MDing, and he currently has 2 older machines, one Garrett and one Fisher (I will post on that forum regarding it). Neither has seen the light of day for years, outside of the couple times I got them out to "play" with them before I developed a more serious...

    Automax V4 Holster

    I've read others ideas about carrying this PP. I think most would agree one of this PP's only "downfalls" is it's physical-size. This isn't much of a problem as far as using it, but mostly in carrying it (it's alittle top-heavy & awkward). The belt-clip that comes on the backside of the PP isn't...

    "Detecto-Man"

    lol, If anyone here has that as a username, no connection. Welded out of mostly 1/4" steel rod, nuts & washers. The standing one is roughly 15" tall (didn't measure, just guessing), and kneeling one about 10"? Smitty

    Found a Classring today

    ....I drug Terri (Echostar61) out today for a hunt......told her it was gonna be 75* & sunny :rofl:. I kept hearing something outside my headphones, it must have been her teeth chattering :biggrin:, she toughed-it out though. Anyway, I found a 1978 womens classring from the local school. I've...

    A hitch in the Ace 250???

    lol.....no, but how about an Ace 250 in a hitch.......... I made this today, it's about 15" long, and all steel.. It's welded to a short piece of 2" sq tubing to fit into a receiver hitch (and drilled for the hitch pin). Had to color-coordinate it to match my 250 :detecting: Smitty

    Probe (not Pinpointer) Poll

    Just curious how many use a probe? Yes, no, considering it? Why? 1-If you use one, do you feel brass is better than steel? Meaning do you feel there's less chance of damaging (scratching) a find? 2-Is the additional cost of brass worth it over steel? 3-Anyone ever use a fiberglass probe...

    Add another newbie to the ranks

    Wanted to say a quick "hello" to all. I have a hunting partner who's a member here, and she sent me the link (lol, so you all can blame her :bouncy:). We'd met on another forum, and live close enough that we can hunt together (she's nice, and fun to hunt with, but I'll deny ever saying that...
