Had my best tally today for 21 with only 10 shot in 4 hours. Yesterday was a different matter for 15 in 8 hrs with well over 50 shittys. Gave the new 15 Evo a go for a couple hrs each day for nothing so reverted the old vacuum.

The elite 14 inch. I actually had it running not to bad today and it picked up a couple of my test pieces no problems. Just have to get it over some thats big enough to pull me up with a good signal. Ran some tests today with a mate with a 4500 and it matched his and he found 2 bits today. So buggered if know. :/
 
Struggled to get a grip on the 15 Evo as was picking up heaps of ground noise. Not sure if it was just the wet ground or not? Put a couple of the bigger bits I got down and would pick them up but just sounded like noise I'd been hearing and ended up being just ground noise. Even ran the sdc over what I dug just in case?

As I don't get out to often I find it can be hard to get used to what to listen for but once ya get a good target it stands out but easy to forget that's why I revert back to the sdc. Probly not a good idea for learning purposes but I got to go home with a rattle

Definitely gotta enjoy them days as there few and far between for me.
Don't think I'll wear out a pick too soon Dam it unless they start to get a bit bigger and deeper,can only hope
 
I found a couple rocks last sunday that had a good tone to them especially one of the rocks, they weren't your normal sounding hot rock so i thought i would take them home and make myself a dolly pot and a rock crusher. I went through the scrap metal pile from work to make them up.

Its a bit of a work out using the crusher lol made it a bit big but it works.
