Well you guys probably remember me asking about a cover for my new AT Pro. A Friend here pm'd me about a guy on another forum that's making and selling them. He's actually a sponsor over there. Well I ordered one but don't think I'll ever see it. Paid $30.00 for it, supposedly it's being shipped. I'll believe it when I see it. There's another guy that's been waiting longer than me and no luck getting the two he ordered. Showed my wife a picture of the one he's making and got a quick "I can make a better cover than that". Went to Walmart last night and got all the supplies and she made the one you see here. I actually helped a little, not to proud to admit I played with a sewing machine. Pretty sweet deal. I'm actually gonna send this one to the guy that's been waiting since the 6th. She's gonna make a couple more for me and my hunting buddy.

That's a good looking cover - let us know if she wants to sell them!

I think I ordered from the same vendor (placed on Jan 17, it was $30. shipped and several color combos to Choose from. I'd expect mine any day now. USPS tracking info provided -also paid via PayPal so I'm not worried. Seems legit.

Dang covers! surfman clued me re the thread on the other forum. Ill be watching how this shakes out. If it turns out to be a rip off then its a black eye to good forum sponsors. We tend to hold forum sponsors to standards that don't allow for this many unhappy buyers and unfilled orders.
Now I'm having a go round with a different vendor who is a sponsor on another detecting forum. For an order placed and paid on 1/10 with an email reply containing confirmed order # on 1/11. Can't even get a return phone call, or any person who can look up my order??? I asked if it was back ordered - no reply - just leave my phone #. I called twice last week and once this week. I dealt with them before too without issue. What gives these days?

We're actually working on four right now. A couple of these will have some custom embroidering done to the covers. Wife has a machine at work. I would be hesitant about selling them until I got to see how it holds up. I'm gonna pick somebody that will get one and test/critic it. I'm doing one for one of my hunting buddys. A buddy of mines son, he's 10 and has an ATpro. He'll be my local tester. I'll keep you guys posted. As far as the one I ordered, it's supposed to show up on Friday. We'll compare the two and see which is better. Thanks guys, HH, Joe.
Here are some of the covers that my wife and I have made. I know some will say that it's over kill to put a cover on a detector thats waterproof. Keeping mud and dirt out of the control panel, as well as keeping the screen from getting all scratched up is the main reason for my wanting a cover. I will not be using mine in the water. The trashy farm fields is why I got my AT pro. What do you guys think?

Thanks guys, we're proud of these covers. Still working out some details. Just sent one out to a forum member to test/critic the cover. The custom embroidery is something we did spur of the moment. Wife just got a machine at work so they're still figuring it out. We still have some work to do and some changes we want to make. Mainly in the plastic display part of the cover. We want to do something different. We'll keep you posted. Thanks again for all the positive comments.
