    Found silver yesterday

    1876 CC seated dime. What surprised me the most was that it was under 2 pull tabs. LOL. Also found a buffalo nickel and a musket round ball.

    Looking for x-terra rod with S extension complete assembly

    Well I have decided it's time to modify my explorer to give my back and shoulder some relief. Anybody interested in doing some kind of trade with me? I have a 10x12 SEF fbs, a couple of AT Pro coils and I'm flexible but on a fixed income poor.

    WTT; SEF 10 x 12 Explorer FBS coil

    I need to trade my SEF coil for something much lighter. Major problems with my lower back are restricting me from using it. It's my favorite coil. Not sure which way to go weight wise. Is the NEL sharpshooter lighter? I know the Sunray X-12 is lighter.

    Is my ForsCoRe out of calibration???

    I was up to the Nokta website reading about where targets hit on the display and saw that bottle caps are supposed to register 78. However my CoRe always pegs bottle caps at 82. Does this mean my machine isn't calibrated correctly??? Thanks in advance to all that reply, Patrick

    Got out today with Cedarswamp...

    I thought I would show the nails that were in each of the holes with each of the targets respectively. The point being the ForsCoRe can find the good stuff even with nails trying to hide them. What a great machine. All targets were 6-8" deep with nails in the holes. Best two targets are the...

    A couple of goodies today...

    Cedarswamp and I went to one of our spots. I started out digging a huge chunk of an old stove. I was thinking to myself, "yes I love history but I don't want to dig junk". So I did manage to dig up a couple of "V" nickels and that put a smile back on my face. They're hard to see in the pic but...

    My Fisher 1280x mod...

    Well my 1280x was acting a little goofy so I decided to open it up and see what was wrong. Found the main capacitor was bad and replaced it. Then I thought since I'm inside I'm gonna make a couple of changes. LOL As you can see I made it so I can disconnect both the headphones and the search...

    Me and Cedarswamp got out today...

    I finally walked over some silver. Yey!! I'm on the board. Found some kids jewelry, not what I prayed for, but nonetheless still jewelry. LOL A couple of wheats from the 40's, a token and a bunch of clad. Ran in Di3, 80 sens, 10 ID Mask, thank you JFlynn, and Auto Tracking On. All this sunshine...

    Working on an external battery pack...

    Working on an external battery pack for my ForsCoRe. Decided I need more run time on the unit and am using 4 of the 18650 Lithium-ion 3.7v 5800 mAh batteries. I installed a voltage regulator to reduce the 16.64v to 6.01. It will give me 23,200 mAh. I know, I know some of you are thinking that's...

    Battery Mod For My Explorer

    Well my rechargeable batteries for my Minelab Explorer were loosing their charge faster and faster so I decided it was time to look for some lithium-ion batteries. Decided on the UltraFire 18650 3.7v 5800 mAh. So I've gone from 8 batteries to 3. Looking around for some type of case I found and...

    Here's my haul for today...

    Got out today with Cedarswamp to one of our old spots. Managed to find the old marble door knob. It was every bit of 12" down in the ground. For those that are curious here are my settings. Di2, 85 Sensitivity, 40 ID Mask, Ground Tracking On. Love that ground tracking. I hunted all day yesterday...

    Nothing good today

    Nothing but clad today. So disappointing after walking all day in a couple of good places.

    X1 Probe Digger

    Not sure if anyone has done this already. So I decided to make a small digger out of some pvc for the end of my X1 Probe. So much simpler, I think, when getting close to the target without switching back and forth to the hand trowel.

    Need some info please...

    I have an Explorer XS and want to put a momentary button on the handle for the pinpoint. I have the button installed and the two wires fed up into the control box. I just need to know where exactly I have to connect the two wires to make it functional. I am including a pic that I saved from here...

    Weekend Hunt

    Got out Friday and Saturday with my new ForsCore. Managed to find a bunch of stuff but no old coins. Did find a large brass what's-it down every bit of 12". What a great machine.
