Post by: benny on February 04, 2011, 10:43:22 PM Best bet is go to a car boot sale and buy an old spade, the old steel is better quality,cut it down to what size of hole you're digging with a grinder,shorten the handle and hey presto you've got a much better digger than anyone can sell you!

It's especially designed for metal detecting and UNBREAKABLE. Not cheap but the best. Leisure Promotions do them as will all good detetctor shops. If you don;t want to splash the cash then B&Q do a mini digger for under a £10 Title: Re: Call a spade a Spade !! Post by: Napoleon on February 04, 2011, 10:54:15 PM agree with Benny the old stuff much much stronger i got a drapper humm ok but i am always ready for the spade to go crack , got a old one made by a friend cut and so on wow it will never snap but heavy a bit diffcult on the rally using a explorer xs so dont go spending too much not need car booty its a good place and may get one for couple of quids.
Bonne digg. Nap. |
