Looks great. Cheers for posting up 👍

No mate. The monster is a great machine for gold but Im not near detectable goldfields so tomorrow Im going to swap my monster for an Equinox 800 & start shooting for coins. Its got a gold setting but thats not why Im getting it. Ill continue to get my gold fix by panning, sluicing & sniping...

Looking for a swap of my GM1000 GoldMonster for an Equinox 800. New similar price but depending on condition or extras could negotiate a $ difference. My Monster has found gold but I just dont get a chance often enough to get to the gold fields. Im going to continue gold panning & sluicing but...

It could go off its chops. Turn it down, groundballance until it settles hopefully. If the signal goes just left, Id leave it. If it goes left right, then Id chase it. Could be gold in ironstone or near it

I find all sorts of stuff with mine so dont see why not. Just no good on beach tho Im told. Something about the salt sends them a bit bonkers.

Check out Busted Knuckles on YouTube - he seems to do well at Adelong Falls

How did your project go? Id thought of leafspring for pick but yup, weight put me off. Plough disks are the go :perfect:

Havent been doing the forum rounds much of late. Posted up in the PA going south? thread

Hip Hip Hooray :cake:

*Flanno needs its own post... Same here, go out in flanno, work in flanno. When worn out they make the best rags & polishing cloths, kids nappies were flannel, bed sheets - you guessed it, flannel :playful:

*Proud Bogan here too. Long live the flannel shirt :beer:

Yeah mate, just a bit hit n miss/other priorities etc. too. I do pop in here every now and then ;)

Sad to hear mate. Same happened to me... Very early in my prospecting days I let slip what gully I dug up a 1 gram piece whilst sluicing. Within a few weeks the gully was raped. That was about 10 years ago... might go for a look see. The area might be forgotten again & some gold replenished :/

Looks good mate :pickshovel: :goldpan:

Hey Casper, Greeting to you also. I am well thanks bud. Good to see the site going strong. Id lost log in details, access to my email yada yada yada, FaceBook groups happen... Let prospecting go for a bit, bought a tinny boat, sold it, bought sailing boat, sold it n bought another tinny :D ...

Last week I got myself a Gold Monster :D Haven't done much prospecting of late but still have the itch(it won't go away :argh: )

Thanks Lee. They are ace & I still use mine. A bit flogged out with big holes in it but still does the job. Not my idea - I can't take the credit for it. I did see it somewhere else & thought I'd have a crack myself, few tweaks etc. Good luck on your fossiking/detecting - I'm hooked :P...

Just zoomed in on your photo. That sure is lovely gold, nicely shaped chunky gold :drooling: Well done

Haha, no moderator powers anymore so cant even delete my own doubled up posts :P

If bitten or any major life threatening situation & Im alone, no phone reception, a UHF radio & personal epirb would be better than not having them
