Metal Detector’s Blog

I am selling my Minelab Explorer 2 if anybody is interested. This is an awesome machine, and it is only 2 years old. We have a baby on the way, and I am selling some of my toys for now. I will also include two extra coils. There is probably only about 100 hours on the machine, and it has found some really nice stuff, including barber dimes, a wedding band, and a class ring to name a few. If interested, please feel free to contact me by using the CONTACT FORM. Thanks.

The london Science Museum has just released the ‘Metal Detecting R.C. Car’.

The car has a small sensor embedded in it’s undercarriage that detects small metal objects when it rambles thru fields, parks and yards. You are enamored with beeps and lights when the car discovers a metal object.

Although it is a novel idea, it is more geared towrds helping kids understand magnetic fields. I can imagine this thing picks up all kinds of pulltabs, bottlecaps and all kinds of other junk. It actualy  even comes with some fake gold coins to practice with.
