    GPX6000 Faults/Issues

    Spent $8K on the thing, I'm not spending another couple of hundred on a special set of headphones for it, I did that with the zed, but they are not interchangeable. Wish minelab would just do 1 thing with absolute quality, apart from their detectors, nearly all their accessories are crap. Need...

    GPX6000 Faults/Issues

    Me to. Went out to an old patch today, just because of cabin fever, didn't expect much, and that's exactly what I got. However, when I got home, and in the shower, I was covered in little bits of black stuff, it was hard to get off the skin....turns out it was the shiny black coating from the...

    GPX 6000 Coiltek 14x9 coils

    I would definitely consider another after market coil, I have had 3 11" stock coils so far, 2 of them failed after light use, and I mean light use.I have aGPZ which is the detector I use most of the time, so the 6000 I use occasionally. If I was using the 6k most of the time, I would add a 14 x...

    AlgoForce E1500 - NEW PI DETECTOR FROM EX MINELAB ENGINEER

    Great video, I really like the ground balance display, it will make it easy when the ground changes and false targets start to show. It looks like a very very good product, pretty exciting, as I would like to think that Algoforce won't stop at the E1500.....looks like a great product. I wish...

    AlgoForce E1500 - NEW PI DETECTOR FROM EX MINELAB ENGINEER

    So low n So lower numbers would indicate non ferrous and higher numbers ferrous, or am I over simplifying it?

    AlgoForce E1500 - NEW PI DETECTOR FROM EX MINELAB ENGINEER

    Well at the price point, it should be a great starter for someone who wants or needs a P.i machine due to ground that can sniff out little stuff. Be good to hear how it goes.

    Easy arm

    its really not an issue, the bungy hooked onto my backpack is fine anyway. Just thought I would give one of these gadgets a go, and see what I think. One bloke reckons it makes his zed feel like a 6K, for me it seems a bit awkward, when I move from close to me to outstretched, the arm guard...

    PB,s or favorite nuggets! Lets see 'em!

    Just realised that some of the pics are of the same nuggets, the ones on the coaster were the 1st day, I got 18 grams and Glenn got 35. He was using the 17 x 11 6000 coil and it did a good job. I was using the 11" . Next day I used the zed and 12" nf and also got 30ish grams. None were deep...

    PB,s or favorite nuggets! Lets see 'em!

    Another favorite day was checking out a new location, and testing out a theory. It was a last minute day trip, and there was place on trilobite that I wanted to test. It was just a hunch, and Glenn was keen to check out a different spot entirely. But.... we were in my car, and and this spot...

    Sword found in Germany

    I have heard the exact same silk story about samurai as well, even seen so.eone on you tube try an recreate it, however, it seems it is not possible as silk is too light so the story was busted, silk is also a very strong fabric.
