Hi Ewan1987, glad to see you starting a new project. What sort of detecting Gold, relics? This will determine the direction.
Also what area you will be looking and your budget.

Very tight budget. Maybe secondhand would be the way to go. Put a wanted to buy here after you have 10 posts.
Or join the Bendigo prospectors club and hire the clubs detectors SDC for $10 a day to see how it all works and get some help.

Not sure if it will do what you want or expecting.
But good to start off and practice.

Bought a $65 detector on ebay for the wife instead of a pointer. It has a ferrous and nonferrous scale on either side of the midpoint 0. It will locate what she digs out of a hole. It is rated at 180 mm max.in sand. You can dig the mullock heaps and locate gold with the 705 if you are not fussy about some hard yakka. A lot of nuggets were found that way in the 80,s by the previous generation of fossickers.
