    Ok. Whats going on here?

    I threw some clad in the tumbler along with a small piece of rock that read in the silver range. I made sure there were no pennies, BUT THE CLAD CAME OUT PINK. I double checked when I took the clad out. No pennies. And the rock which was white, turned black. A magnet does not effect it. I...

    Ace 350.....

    I guess the only thing I would like to have seen Garrett add to the 350 is a back light. That would have come in handy this morning early AM. As for the coil, I have the 9x12 and it gets some dang good depth but it makes the ace heavy! Still, the DD coil would make it better at finding and...

    And the clad just keeps coming...and.....

    I can't believe this sports field holds so much clad but that's ALL it holds. Besides a couple keys and two toy cars I have found no rings etc. I began at 7:30am and knocked off at 3:00pm this afternoon. Despite how light the Ace 250 is my arm feels like it wants to fall off. $16.00 is not a...

    ANOTHER GREAT DAY

    Same sports field and what a day. The stuff just kept coming out of the ground. I couldn't stop it!:lol: I kept hitting spots that had been dug before but whoever dug the holes never found their targets. Easy Finds. I just put my Pro pointer in the hole and recovered their targets. The guy/gal...

    HF coin tumbler...

    If your thinking about buying that Harbor Freight Coin tumbler then by all means get it. Here are some pictures of coins I cleaned with the tumbler. Click on picture to enlarge. The first photo is of the tumbler made of plastic, not metal, so it is very quiet when in operation. Also is a small...

    I think my Pro Pointer is going out on me....

    I used to get a fresh clean signal when using the Pro Pointer but now I notice I get that AND a another sounds that vibrates. The vibrating sound is laid over the good sound. Anyone else get this? I called Garrett and let them hear it over the speaker phone. They said this was not a normal...

    MUCH BETTER DAY today

    Yesterday wasn't such a great day. But TODAY, while I didn't find much jewelry, U found a ton of clad and odds and ends. I hit a part of a school soccer field I didn't think would yield anything. Apparently a lot of other people thought the same thing and just never went there. AND there's still...

    A nice day but not much to brag about...

    Went back to an old sports field. It should have been replenished what with all the people showing up every weekend but no such luck. It was meager finds today. Katz Dreaming of the Ace 350 and the AT Pro

    Another AT Pro question...

    When I use my MXT too close to power lines or near a large micro wave dish the MXT makes a severe chattering sound. I don't get that with the Ace 250. Because the AT Pro is so close to the MXT in what it can do I have to wonder if IT TOO will have the chattering when it gets too close too the...

    AT Pro question

    How do you ground balance the At Pro? I've gottened used to the GB on the MXT but I wonder how different the GB is with the AT PRO. As anyone used this feature yet? Katz

    Heres a new one......

    Garrett is coming out with a new detector, The AT Pro operating at 15 khz. It's supposed to be out this November. If you guys ever get your hands on one it would be interesting to hear your evaluations; it may actually be a good little gold nugett machine at 15 khz. Katz

    AT Pro?????

    When did THIS happen? And just when I thought I might get the Ace 350!!!!!! How much is this baby going to cost? Looks like it might double as a gold nugget prospecting machine as well. Katz Prayers ARE Answered!

    People dumping their MXT's?

    Looked at Ebay today and noticed how many MXT's are for sale. I wonder if people are trading them in for the new MXT Pro? Looks like some real good deals on the MXT right now. Katz

    I am amazed.....

    I tumbled some more very dirty clad in the Harbor Frieght Tumbler only this time used vinegar instead of water, some dish washing liquid, let it tumble for 12 hours and it came out looking like it was fresh from the mint. I did let the clad soak over night in the vinegar, so that probably...

    About that Harbor Freight Tumbler

    Finally bought the 3Lb tumbler this weekend and trying to get used to the best way to use it. Last night, just before twelve midnight, I started to tumble the coins. At 5:30 this morning I stopped the machine, cleaned out the tumbler and dried the pea gravel in the microwave. The coins came...

    Not much to show for the day

    Went back to the soccer field today but I think I have got just about everything I can out of it. I'll go back next year at this time. Should be a lot of new stuff buried by then. The cell phone came in as a penny; probably the copper in the phone. Katz

    Ace 350 recovery speed?

    I have to wonder if the recovery speed on the Ace 350 will be any better than the 250. While I am on the subject, and never having use any other Garrett machine, how does the recovery speed of the Ace 250 compare to the GTIs and other Garrett machines. Kelly Co is already selling it. I notice...

    About the Ace 350.....

    If the Ace 350 is going to retail for $349 I wonder if the dealers are going to offer it at the discounted rate. The Ace 250 retails at $259 but everyone sells it at $212.00. Katz

    Cheap sand scoop for the beach.

    I made a cheap beach sand scoop by drilling holes in a plastic hand scoop. Works just fine. Walmart carries a set of them. You can discard the smallest one and use one of the two big scoops. Mine is black how ever. Katz
