I've mentioned my trusty Fisher 1260X on this site quite a number of times. I look back and put the chronology together and realize I actually purchased this baby in 1983, for something over $500 if my memory serves me well.
I still have it, and it still works great, just like the day I first filled it with batteries. Certainly I beat it up severely over time - the coil is now at about a 90 degree angle off the control box, so cumbersome to swing - but I'll continue to bring it out occasionally.
And I realize they are rare machines today.
Does anyone here still have one?
