Hi, or G'day as we say here, thought I'd introduce myself and get to know some of you! I have been interested in M'D ing for some time, but only as a very part time hobby and my first two detectors were of the "el cheapo" variety and well used when they went to metal detector heaven, damn circuitry! But anyhow, I ventured on to you tube one day and searched Metal detector and up came all these videos, one of which was by Crackbadger who I gather is well known here, funnily enough I had recently placed an order for a new Ace 250 and here was this guy going on about how good they were, I felt pleased that I had made an obviously decent choice for a new detector. So this new detector turns up and so does the rain, which has limited my time outdoors to almost nothing lately, but I have taken pics of my total finds over the past couple of years which I hope to add to greatly in the near future. I'm enjoying reading lots of posts here and am learning every step of the way. Hope to get to know many of you better as time goes by...Ozzy
