    Tesoro Bandido

    Have this coming in a few days, as can be seen the shaft mount has been snapped off. Are these moulded into the case or do they slide/clip into place? Thanks.

    Kruzer recovery speed

    Hi all. Am running an Anfibio multi and looking at a Kruzer that's got a few different coils with it, now I know that the coils are interchangeable so will give me a few options with both machines. The Anfibio is fast in 3 tone with the lower gain "in air/above ground" but this doesn't seem to...

    Which coil

    The 10 x 12 SEF coil I have on my etrac has given up. Looking for a replacement to deal with a new site that has very little mineralisation. Was thinking of a larger coil. Foot note: Using the Anfibio on the site there's no bars showing on mineral indicator, and sometimes won't even ground balance.

    Nokta anfibio multi battery

    Is there any reason why I can't run a rechargeable battery pack into the charger port on the Anfibio. Surely it's only the same as the add on 4AA pack Nokta make? Reason being the machines inbuilt battery isn't hold it's charge for long.

    Musket ball making in the field.

    I'm in the UK and have access to a site that saw action during the English civil war. The musket ball count is well into 3 figures, also found lead ingots, and sprues from moulds. Have come across a patch of about 30sq ft and it throws up pieces of lead as shown. They are all flat, and all have...

    Legend coils

    My new Legend will be here tomorrow, just having a browse around the Internet and came across the "Detech Ultimate" 13" coil for the Legend. Now this coil was on most of my Minelabs as I found them excellent. Very little info on them being used on Legend though. Anyone had one?.

    Something different

    Nice to find a complete one, was hoping for a makers/owners mark to be on it but unfortunately no. Post medieval as bronze not pewter.

    Sovereign and "nulling"

    Many years ago, it was reported during discussion on another forum? about the Explorer being able to register a non-discriminated target during a null. Only mentioned this as during some testing with the Sovereign I've bought, the recovery time seemed to take forever. Ok I was using a Tornado...

    What constitutes "working order" 🤔

    Finally had the Sovereign delivered, bought unseen (only photos) but after a few messages the deal was done. I've already posted about the cable sheathing, but it needs a good service as the threshold control either works or doesn't, its either full on volume or silent. The actual volume control...

    Sovereign Elite coil

    Just picked up a cheap Elite, all working order but Tornado coil cable coating is practically non existent. Knew this before I bought it, any recommendations for replacement coil, will only be used on my clean sites.

    Etrac with 1050 fbs coil

    Anyone tried this combo, think my pro coil has developed a fault and got chance of a new 1050 (explorer black version) to try before spending a lot of money.

    Test beds

    Have just moved house and can finally find a patch of the garden to put in a test bed. At my last house I used a manual post hole borer with a 6" wide auger, when it settled down it served me well for over 16 years. Have any of you just used a quicker method of poking a hole in the ground...

    New site = big silver

    All 3 fall within a similar time scale 1600/1650, one with hole in is either a copper based forgery or as more commonly thought just debased silver due to civil war, still.....not complaining

    Which version?

    Right, have the funds and fancy a legend, have the recent updates improved anything? Only asking incase I come across a used one that hasn't been updated, thanks all.

    F19

    Just picked up a 6 year old but unused F19, with 11"DD and 12"×9" Nel, my first of this series, any quick tips?

    Had the last laugh...

    Land owner stopped whilst I was getting gear out of car, questioned my sanity, parentage, religion etc then drove off laughing, deep ploughed after crop failure, hard going but ran coil down trench caused by plough, got too places not normally hitable due too depth. Got loads of lead and these 2...

    More UK civil war finds

    Went back to where there was supposedly a civil war skirmish, found whats possibly a lead ingot (is lead) more musket balls than shown, and best bit of all is the lead remains from a mold, can even see bevelled edges where pistol/musket balls have been cut off.

    Nearly there

    Just the lower shaft to fine tune
