7" coil for Blisstool V3

[multieagle]

Yeah can see if quality control is not so good on a particular day, calibration could be a problem machine to machine. That being said, I do own a Beast and have found it useful. It is fairly easy to tell iron from non-ferrous metal, and excellent pin-pointing target. And depth, what can I say . . . excellent. But definitely not a machine for everyone. The perfect machine has not yet been built that does it all. Just my two cents worth.

Sven, contact me off line if you want to discuss further.

Probe




Here's the probe I made from an old Fisher 1220X with a 3 and a half inch coil fitted to it. I don't think that you can get those coils nowadays though. The electrics part is in a sandwich box that fits in my waist pouch and the coil and stem just sticks in my belt.

haha, nice one muddy, i made i coil for my barracuda that size as one of the beaches i detect has small but deep patches of sand between rocks, been after a decent 1220x for ages, id probably rebuild that with new case and handle aw well each to his own.
