    Merry Christmas to all and a quick update

    Hi all and Merry Christmas. Hope the new finds you with many blessings. Have not been in here much this year. Nor have I been doing much detecting, a little but not much at all. I have had some other projects take precedence. I will have to post one of them

    Busy boy

    I am thinking you are going to be a busy boy. Mod 2 forums and machine and coil testing. I have not been in much lately and "WHAT, a NEW ML", after just a little bit of surfing, I want one. What was said on another forum will make this a very useful tool, and likely cure some of my current...

    last several hunts

    Short on silver these days. This week I did find several older wheats. The wheats being '29S, '55S and 1919S, 1926S today. Also found 4 Spokane United Railways tokens, the oldest they can be is 1942. Good For One School Fare. I only cleaned the '26S just enough to date and it is in remarkably...

    Homemade Lower Shaft

    Well sort of, I made it a t work. but, I only used a manual mill and lathe, no CNC. Turned out all right and cost me about 3 to 31/2 hours total.. The plastic clevis is longer and heavier than factory to make up for the slightly shorter aluminum shaft. Total weight though ends up being about...

    10 ORE

    1st 10 ORE coin, DANMARK 1953. Kinda surprised me, pretty cool. Looks like a copper coin and IDed 18 to 26 ish, with the 5x10 coil. Not that deep around 4 inches (?). Figured it would be trash. Scratchy sounding and only repeated 1 direction. Yes lots of nails in this yard. If I run in...

    Promising

    The new old house I'm hunting looks promising. Lots of iron. Got a couple of wheats '49 and '50 and a 1949 canadian quarter. That was nice to find, I wasn't sure until I got home and and cleaned off the date. Looks like it will be a good place. built around late 1920s. [attachment 225904...

    Odd

    OK so I hit a house that just opened up. I hunted for around 4 hours. Dug 37 pennies, 2 dimes and 2 quarters, not a single wheat, and still hit 2 Mercs. Go figure. I was running the 10.5 MF DD and skipped some real iffy signals as being iron and the trash was heavy. Boy I wish there was a...

    Diving Detectors

    Ok. Several years ago I certified to scuba dive. That was in 98. I have not ben underwater since 99. I intend on taking a quick refresher course and getting out at least a few times a year. So what I would like is some input on which detectors are the best for divers, as it only makes...

    Funny Thing

    I dug my first Half Dollar today, 1996. That put a big smile on my face. I did not think I would have felt that way about a clad coin. Its a funny thing. Nothing else good though couple of dimes and about 10 pennies. Jeff

    Is it possible??

    I ran across this story the other day. I find it quite relevant. I know people who believe their sins are to beg or to bad and Christ would not forgive them. It should also remind us how good we have it here in the good ol USA. (also Aussie, Kiwi, British and the rest of our friends)...

    My first sheath

    This is my first sheath, I am very happy with the results. I finished it yesterday. Still needs to be oiled. It is my 2nd leather project and the first which required stitching, the other was a strope held together by Chicago screws (think rivet). Hand stitched and made for the first knife I...

    Minelab Service

    I have had a great experience with the ML service dept. Period. My 705 should be coming home either today or Monday. It checks out and leaves me with my prior suspicions, and that is that the vast majority of my problems are due to EMI. Any others are me. I am going to start doing some simple...

    My other hobby

    I posted a razor that I had made a couple weeks back and I made another blade, a knife this time. Again I squeezed this one into brakes and about an hour after work. I am making it for a guy at work who has borrowed my pocket knife a couple of times. Now he will have no excuse for not having...
