Axtyr he wont answer you mate- Mick is not going to give any info out that might give even a slight hint to where he is finding his yellow- not even the State! He'll happily tell you anything else tho- like it was a 30 oz patch etc etc. But between you & me he is in Nth Qld........shhhhhh don't...

Well that just sums it all up for me.........AMAZING, no where to be found, but as soon as it was going to come out of their pocket/Xmas piss up, BANG there they are! Someone had obviously started to open them up so that could only be happening within the Aus Post building or with Aus Post...

It's definitely due to the postal services in those countries. Stuff regularly goes missing so it's easier for the ebay businesses to just not send to them. I grew up in Papua New Guinea & I can tell you they are SHOCKING for thieving stuff- if it has any sort of size or weight to your parcel it...

Fossilized dinosaur 'nugget'??? LOL! I hope it's the yellow we want it to be for you. Well done.

40 Grammer! That will do Wal- I can feel all my stressessssss drifting away........... ;) I appreciate & understand what u r saying- I just despises being lied to, especially when it's not necessary- I probably would have bought the 18" anyway, but deserve to be told its true capabilities...

Ben, just had a quick read of that article- & yes it is a bit of a 'mind-bender'. I will have to read it a couple of times to get my head around the language- thanks for the link. I have actually found sub-grammers (tiny fly poo size) nuggets with my 18" at 5-6 inches depth, which was a big...

Mate I believe you said "No detector currently made will detect a pull tab a metre deep". I then questioned the statement against my 5000 & 18-20" coil, & u stated "With a 20" coil on a 5000 you would detect a pull tab at a metre deep - if it was still attached to the beer can". I don't think I...

Good point Coyote, especially in light of that poor guy in Brisbane recently that lost everything.

Yeah, personally I think Ben78 is wrong. Not sure where he gets that info' from but it doesn't make sense to me, given what I have dug up with the standard 11" mono. An extra 61% in coil size has got to equate to considerably more depth. I'll wait to see what Ben comes back with. I may even...

I run an 18" Nugget Finder coil on my 5000, & although I have never had to dig down a meter for anything (I've been close though), I would be very surprised if it didn't penetrate to that sort of depth, especially given a standard 11" mono can get to 500-600mm depth. Well let me put it this...

Why not?? The larger coils- 18" or 20+" apparently reach down way beyond 1 meter.

Surprisingly easy. It slides out with a good pull, & washes out very easily- simply splashing water up onto the matting washes everything off them. The matting drys very quickly & returning the mats to the sluice is a pretty easy process aswell. Due to the tape (which is what you can see between...

Thanx Beagleboy. No mate the mats just sits there. I followed the installation instructions on the Gold Hog website, which uses that Gorilla tape to run down the edges (underneath) & folded over on itself & that's it- they are nice & snug against the sides & stay put.....so far anyway. I should...

Thanks Wal for the feedback- fingers crossed for this weekend. :)

Yeah GD that was my plan.
