Tired of your detector falling over when you put it down to test scoops?

Frustrated that your $1200/$8000 detector cant even keep its own control box out of the dirt?

Your worries are over with the new patented rotating Detect-o-Stand

All you need is :
400mm x15mm x 3mm carbon fibre strip $20 eBay ( 200mm for Nox & 25mm x 2.5mm Alu strip would also work fine)
1x M5 countersunk machine screw & nut ( Panhead ok for 6000, also doenst have to be M5, - M4, M6, 3/16" etc will work)
rubber washer for tightness adjustment
stainless washer
drop of locktite or superglue

I will let you figure the rest out yourself so you have the satisfaction of design input.

Three cheers for the inanimate carbon rod !!!

Doesnt get simpler than this

Always thought about these with a kick stand for the 7, but hopefully the lazyman scoop works out.
