    2023 MDC XT10E (10 foot) Single beds Hybrid pop top for sale in NSW

    Hi all, the missus and I need to sell our camper as we are getting something a little larger due to her picking up a remote job and not having a seat etc is making it hard for her to work in. Love this camper, very light (1600kg) and so easy to set up/pack down as it has electric pop top and...

    Yeah mate my thinking also. I saw one in cashiers there for 3k, I can probably haggle that one cos I bet they only paid 2k or less for it. Miners den have a couple with some accessories… there’s one with a couple different coils at the miners den, is it worth the extra couple hundred for the...

    Yeah I had a look at the Maryborough Coiltek and it’s only $60 a day so I’ll have a crack with that I reckon. Just need to map out where we are heading and come up with a plan on what days I’ll get the most out of it 👍👍

    Scary the thought of spending the $4500 but from what I’ve been reading it’s well worth it 👍 Scary when just starting out I mean… I’ve spent many dollars fishing including boats so it makes sense to invest in the hobby.

    Oh yeah I agree with the ‘work never finds you’… I’ll be on the lookout plus the missus is on a few Facebook pages for work around Aus so I’ll keep an eye out there. I might have to bite the bullet and pre empt the work and fork out for a new bit of kit now as I mean I am in the area so I can...

    Wall and Ceiling fixer by trade but am fairly willing to do anything 😂 been travelling for a while now so have picked up some fairly random jobs along the way. Have done a heap of renovating so ‘handyman’ would cover it well I guess.

    Golden Triangle Detecting (Avoca)

    Alright, all sounds like a plan now… the missus and I don’t have too much disposable income at the moment being on the road so I’ll have to pick up some work at some point to pay for one. Can’t wait to get my hands on one though 👏

    Yeah ok awesome. So we are on the road full time so it wasn’t a specific gold hunting trip, I got the bug when we were up in Tibooburra last year, I did manage to find heaps of lead up there so thought I was on the right track. I originally did buy this detector because I figured we would be at...

    Morning all! So I’m currently out in the state forest here, I’d appreciate honesty over stepping lightly cos i won’t be offended at all… should I just turf the X Terra Pro? So I think I have my setting as good as they can be for gold with this unit, 15hz, I’ve done the noise cancel, did the...

    Who has an arkpak?

    I’ve run an Engel box (same as the Ark Pak and Thunderbox) as a back up for about 5-6 years now with an Itechworld 120x (rated to 105AH) It’s definitely not without its faults. It will only charge at a max of 7amps through the box so the 150 watt solar will have wasted output and they might be...

    Oh yes I saw this earlier today (been trolling all the old threads) what a cracker! I’m an avid Australian coin collector as I was gifted a container of random Australian coins when I was just an ankle biter and it set me on that random path. The comment about your mate’s hands shaking… mate I...

    Holy moly, that’s more than I could have asked for mate thank you so much. I am currently free camping so the yarns with the fellow travellers hasn’t been as good as usual as not too many around at the moment at the free camps. As I was pretty confident with an area I’d found in Ararat I was...

    Nah I don’t. I am very new to it all so didn’t even think when I left Perth to grab any. I’ve been looking at the Doug Stone ones, I’ll have to grab some when I finally get my bank cards sorted 😅 Are the Doug Stone ones the go to? Thanks!
