Hi everybody,
I seem to have slowly lost about half of the bolt/wingnut things that you use to hold the coil on the end of the detector, (ML 4000)
I'm down to the last three sets now, and it'd be pretty damn annoying if I lost those somehow in the field and couldn't detect due to lack of a couple plastic nuts and bolts. Embarassed Embarassed
Does anybody know where you can get these in bulk. Cheap?
Any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated sunny
Cheers!

QldSandy used to be a moderator on this site but has since opened a shop.
Have a look in the Equipment Suppliers section here on the Forum Home page.
ML will probably sell you some too.
No suppliers in NZ?
cheers

I actually found the plastic coil bolts and the foam hand grip replacements in "Clark Rubber". They went bust in Bathurst where i live alas.
Don't know if they are in NZ.

PS Hey Goldtimer, I picked up a few pairs of wool gumboot socks when i was in NZ recently. They act as good snake gaiters . Never see them over here.
