Still got it... too many false promises

As far as I know, metal detectors have been used with some success.. the downside is that the ground is often littered with metal debris that could give false readings all over the place.. Not only that, can metal detectors reach a depth of 8 or 16ft (as the locators apparently do)?

I would suspect that Deben fix the rrp.. it's not an uncommon practice (or didn't used to be) in retail. Bet the mark-up ain't great either. .

An electronics engineer should be able to identify the parts and make a list.. component cost is probably a coupla quid. I've been looking for someone I can trust to send my Mk1 box to for this purpose.

Purse nets?? Make 'em at a cost of about £35 for 50 (in spun poly, using heavy rings) . . .

The price of this stuff is ridiculous.. Deben even have all numbers removed from the components that make up their ferret finders/collars. Because they know that anyone with a bit of soldering skill and a Maplins catalogue could put one together for a fiver!! Ferreting's not (supposed to be) a rich mans sport is it??

Vid clip

You modify the exhaust to take a long (flexible) pipe and chuck it (the end of the pipe) down rat holes to smoke them out. Basically. Not 100% but think some have used on bunny holes too. . . .

Forgot to say it will come with a new bottle of 2-stroke oil.. bargain to he had here chaps

Little lightweight petrol strimmer engine, already cut down, just needs the exhaust modded to take a pipe.. Runs lovely. . . . £30 posted.. Got a vid clip of it running will send by pm if wanted..

Sold!! Cheers all

Forgot to add.. would consider having a deal on ferreting gear or leatherworking tools..

Cheers fella.... think I have an unopened bottle of 2-stroke oil too if needed . . will chuck it in f.o.c. if I have.
