    Lightweight metal detectors?

    I made up a harness for my CTX couple weeks ago. I used to be able to swing for a good couple hours before arm and shoulder got a bit sore, up here in FNQ, it takes even less time to feel absolutely buggered. After a quick google on options and what others use, I whipped this up in 10mins with...
