[QUOTE="gcause, post: 38034, member: 1497"] Thanks for the ideas Loamer here's some of mine: Coil lead clamps - instead of buying the clips that keep the coil lead in place on the shaft - go to woolworths in their hardware section you can get Velcro cable ties just like the minelab ones for about $3 for twelve of them in multiple colours. Coil lead end fittings - use heat shrink or rubber tubing of same size as coil lead and fold over one end and staple it; easily replaced if lost. Plastic scoops - Bargain city / Sam's warehouse / Crazy Clarkes sell cat/dog litter flat bottom scoops and larger deeper scoops for $2. I buy a few of these to have spares and put plastic zip ties on the end of them so I can attach them to the carabiner clip on the shoulder strap on my harness for easy access. Detector weather covers - you can use the self seal sandwich bags. [/QUOTE]
