Have had a few unexpected BLOW OUTS myself. :icon_pale: Have driven home with no underwear or socks a few times. Socks are great for emergency clean ups.

Love the Pirate ! Umm, kinda reminds of myself !

Coil covers are too big off a P.I.T.A. for me to deal with. They pick up crap and make your coil false because there is stuff caught in it. Truck bed liner sprayed on twice a year saves wear and tear on the coil without the sand and the grit in the coil cover making false signals. Once you use...

Really heavy and large wood splitting wedge. Cracks big stumps logs up really nice !

Yes, I've used a drone looking for hunting spots on beaches and nude beaches are the best hunting spots with a drone. Really good metal detecting hunting spots in the woods can't be seen with my drone because of the forest canopy so I still have to go in on foot to find them.

Yeah, when you look at it that way the Harbor Freight 9 would be better then nothing at all for folks to trying to get into the hobby with little money to spend and not a big investment.

I'd be staying if I were there to detect the fresh stuff that comes up as a result.

Keep in mind, silver was in general circulation back in those days. So finding silver was the same as finding clad today and you just spent it. Machines were heavy and cumbersome to handle with little to no discrimination. Today's basic machines could run loops around what we had then !

OK, OK, I can already hear the laughter !!!! I was recently given a Harbor Freight 9 Function detector by someone who tried detecting and didn't like it. Naturally, it being free, I just had to try this DOG out to see how bad it is. The results were surprising !!! It actually works really...

Umm, Who really Cares ????

That one is in really nice shape !!! They were state of the art back then and like swinging a concrete block. No wonder why my shoulders are shot !!! Very poor ergonomics on them and would tire you out quick. That video makes me know I'm old now. Thanks !

Those old Red Baron's were good detectors back in the day. I wouldn't seriously hunt an area today with one unless I went back through it with a modern detector. Try walking and hunting behind your uncle. :laughing7:

Your definitely looking into this too deep. As far as kids sure they should be able to do what they have interest in. But when they become mature interest change. Metal detecting can be fun for any kid but many males let along females will not stick with it. Yeah, my old lady loves fishing but I...

Either your a really lucky guy or you've been out detecting in them weed patches ! Find anything good ?

My experience is that fewer women have an interest in detecting then males. Few males have interest in sewing and knitting. If I sewed or knitted I would expect to be a minority at the fabric and yarn shop. Males and females are different even if the politically correct try to tell you otherwise.

Congrats on that find. Was it found in NY State ???

Yes, with coat hangers. It's called dowsing and can be used for water detecting also.

Just a folk art handmade doll. No voodoo there.

You'll get it, just takes some time. You picked up a really good first detector. It's an awesome detector once learned! It can be confusing in the beginning but stick with it. Learn the Pro modes and just pretend the standard modes don't exist because Pro modes give better information in the...
