Dave, The Nugget Finder Evolution coils use a vinyl coil tape, it is available at Goldsearch Dunolly. It goes on easy with no kinks. I hope this helps. Regards Jeff

For those in the Golden Triangle, Lyle Eales stores stock NBC. Cheers

I had worn out my commercial pick, but the handle was still in good condition. So I cut back the worn out pick end, cut a new blade from a plough disk, welded a small cold chisel to the point of the blade and then drilled and bolted this onto the handle. I can now replace the blade when it wears...

I'm waiting on Bunnings to have a special on decking oil ;)

Thanks Jaros, Its Dirty Already :D Regards Turps123

Today I made a new pick made from a plough disk, 32mm water pipe, and a 750mm log splitter handle. Very Happy :) Regards Turps123

On my 4500 I normally use a Nugget Finder 14 x 9 mono, I also have the Minelab 11 inch DD, a Coiltek 10 x 5 mono Joey Coil and a P &M Coils 18 x 6 Nuggeteer mono patchfinder. Regards Turps123

MJB, the shaft opposite rays is the old Reform Mine, I was told this closed down because they could not stop water seepage. The pumps that they had could not handle the amount of water and the mine flooded. Brutus and me, the Waanyarra area is very good for the odd piece, a mate of mine last...

After a long warm summer here at the base of mountains, I finally take off tomorrow for the GT for a 6 week period ( lucky me :D ). This will be my third trip to the GT this year. The first two trips were a huge learning curve with lots of good advice from the campers around ( all prospectors)...

I can confirm that, those photos were posted on the Minelab Owners Forum on 22/12/2012 Regards Turps123

Hi Ridge Runner, I could only use the SPP on standard settings in the backyard with the Joey coil. Zuke, I use the the Joey coil on the SPP and my GPX4500 when needed, I normally stay with a Nugget Finder 14x9 mono on the 4500 when in the Triangle. I recently purchased a Nuggeteer 18 x 6 mono...

Hi Ridge Runner, I have just air tested the Joey coil on two pieces of gold using the SPP 1/ .12 Gram at 12mm 2/ .18 Gram at 20mm I thought this would be better, but my back yard there is a lot of EMF and trash. I cant even turn on my GPX4500 without it screaming - totally unusable. I will be...

The Coiltek Joey 10 x 5 works great on my SPP nice and quiet . Also I use it on a standard Minelab lower shaft and have drilled a 7mm hole on the SPP upper shaft, fits well. Regards Turps123

Sorry Scott 'O', the SPP is no longer for sale, I have decided to keep it. Thanks for the enquiry turps123
