    Fisher f-5 vs. Fisher 75 +

    Ive never heard of the M-5, and a google search didn’t have any results. It suggested a CZ-5 though. Could you link it?

    Recommended gold and silver buyers?

    I use Midwest Refineries. They pay 95% spot and turn around a check in a week. They have always been at what my calculators say on payments also. They don’t require any paperwork unless you’re scrapping over $10k worth a quarter or something crazy like that. Edit: I haven’t scrapped silver so...

    Kudos to Richard at Backwoods Detectors

    Bottom line up front is that Richard at Backwoods Detectors was amazing to deal with. I would rate my recent transaction a 10/10. He offered me a price towards my trade in that was more than fair. I’ve actually never pursued the trade in route before because I always thought I would get hosed...

    Why do those of you who swing an F-75 like it?

    The F75 is my aboslute favorite detector. Even when I had an Etrac, CTX 3030, and now Equinox 800, I always seem to go for the F75 the most. Here is what I love best about it: 1. For some odd reason, it is my park gold magnet. It has found me dozens of rings in parks/sports fields, the last...

    Handcrafted Ink Pens

    Not sure if you ever considered it, but it's free to start a store on Etsy, and they take a very small cut of the sale compared to other places and drive a lot of traffic. I was making stuff and selling on Etsy, and had to put the shop on vacation mode a lot becuase orders were flooding in and...

    Minelab making EQX coil ears thicker ??

    This is what they are talking about: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3949618 It has to be 3D printed. Most local libraries have 3D printers. There is a couple posts on Friendly's forum where someone was making them for the cost of shipping also.

    Joining the Deeptech Club

    Closed the deal with Richard at Backwoods Detectors today and will have a Vista X incoming soon. As soon as Tesoro folded I panic offloaded all my beep digs before what I thought would be big price drops, and have been jonesing for a beep dig. I use that term lightly, I know it's more than a...

    Open Colonial Relic Hunt

    Do you have a link by chance?

    Got my 800 today.

    Sure thing. I think for civil war hunting you'll really like it, does well in the iron and even better with the new update.

    Got my 800 today.

    It only detects the edge on surface targets. But then again, every single detector I have ever owned with a DD coil detected the edge on surface targets.

    First Complete Crotal

    That's awesome. Still on my bucket list, for some reason it continues to elude me.

    PulseDive Pieces Missing?

    Monte, you do realize that you're experience doesn't equate to everything that anyone ever purchased from them? Let's explore some facts, and areas that Nokta Makro could improve in the area of customer improvement. I don't know anyone but an absolute fanboy that doesn't think an entity can...

    PulseDive Pieces Missing?

    Mine was the retail version in the hard case. Still haven’t heard back from Nokta support on if they sent it. I’m not having a world class support experience like I’ve read about others having.

    PulseDive Pieces Missing?

    Just to follow up with everyone, I reached out to Nokta Makro who replied back to contact the US service facility. That's actually something Nokta can do better, list the service contact information on your website, as it took a couple of days for them to respond back to me to contact the US...

    Aftermarket shafts. What you got ? Like it ?

    I got the Plugger's one piece shaft. I liked that he customized the placement points for how tall I was vice just buying something "off the shelf". Have had no issues with it, and it is even better now that I've paired it up with Detect-Ed carbon fiber lower shafts. I could have just as...

    Broken Coil

    There is one for the 11” CTX coil. I don’t have a CTX and it looks like according to comments it has to be glued on somehow. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2188566/comments Almost all libraries offer 3D printing for cheap now, just have to give them the link, but I can make some for your...

    PulseDive Pieces Missing?

    Thank you for confirming that RVA_Digger. I did reach out to them via their contact form but didn't hear back yet, so just tried emailing them. I've heard their support is great so I'm sure they can just mail that cap out. I like the pointer a lot, I'm going to give it a dirt run this week...
