[QUOTE="Goldylox, post: 436, member: 67"] I'm disabled early with brittle bones (fractured spine) & bad arthritis so it's put a serious lean on my detecting "career" & digging stamina. I use a hipstick and a swing arm fitted to my ML5K to help me keep going. Highly recommend investing in these items & way less fatiguing. You can easily make a swing arm yourself so you use both arms for the action. I also wear a sturdy magnetic back brace (does not affect the coil) & carry plenty of Elmore Oil to keep the joints going. I need a hand brace too sometimes in order to hold the flippin' pick or scoop. Clutter! Your swinging arm will toughen up anyway with regular adventures out bush. If you're lucky enough to have a trusted person who can give you a decent massage afterwards - even better! Good luck. [/QUOTE]
