:eek: Ohhh noooo ,..... you need to be a back tracker to find a lost pinpointer, no good just lookin for it like a bloke would.
On the upside,.... you've scored enough moolah to buy yourself a brand new one aye !
:Y: O:) :Y:
:( If I realized silver would have been easy to find :/ hadn't been out for maybe four days before I realized :eek: It's long gone now 8.(
Also lost my horse feed scoop on the jungle trail to get home :/ ...Have'n a bad week hey :lol: .... :N: :rolleyes:
Made a quick ten minute Franke'n scoop from pvc drainpipe til I come up with a better one :lol:
The crystal ball missed that one :eek: ...... :rolleyes:

It was the Makro pointer GP :/ Quite liked it so thinking of grabbing another :cool: :Y:
Should'a had a leg rope hey :eek: ....What a dude :rolleyes: ...It was only just run in too :eek:
I'll have to use the dowsin rods for pinpointin til I order one :lol: :Y:
 
Bummer about the pinpointer mate, that sux. Try to get a garret carrot, they are so orange that you could see one from half a k away. I just use the bunnings fiskars scoops, only $2 a pop.

The Garrett's seem a bit pricey Heatho, I hear their good but are they 80 bucks more good? or its that the AT Pointer? :eek:
Knowing my luck I'd end up with a Farrett Carrot :mad: .... :lol: This is Franke'n scoop 1...100% plastic, the handle is a suction cap for holding windows electrical tied to it... :rolleyes: .......... :lol:

Thanks gda :cool: :Y: Think it's gona take some Gold to get me over the loss of my pointer :eek:
......MotoGP FP4 and Qualies on now 8) ....Phillip Island.... :party:
 
Yes that is what I thought too,the Frankenstein scoop :lol: but I suppose using that is already $$$ in your pocket :party:

I found a ring exactly like that also with me "donating" it to a good cause = Me :cool:

And going home with that much $$$ is far far better than going home with 8.(

Good effort :)

The scoop works awesome :eek: Heavy duty to punch through wet sand :cool: :Y:
The horse feed scoop was thin and flexible so was a bit of a sissy scoop :lol: No man handle'n or diggin like a maniac :lol:
 
Nice little ring mate, wonder if it's a real ruby in it? :Y:

Yeah the Garrett's are expensive for a pinpointer but well worth it I reckon, wouldn't be without mine now.

I was told when I found a pair of copper earrings a few weeks ago it is "rare" to find a pair of earrings so welcome to the club :party:
 
Best thing about the carrot is running it on setting 3 and then recalibrating it as you dig for the target, it literally homes in on targets when you use it this way. No falsing at all and batteries seem to last ages. :Y:
