Fed ex dropped it off this morning,slapped a tiger coil on and took it to the local park for an hour tonight.Got some clad,flat button,merc,smashed bullet,spoon handle,, and some other do dads..pretty cool machine,I did dig some big iron washers that were huge.Found out real quick coins hit tight and have more of a tink sound to them.Very light machine,I’m gonna try the 10 inch concentric tomorrow.Big thanks to Craig at showmetreasure.

Congrats on the Merc, gas truck and the rest...had several older versions of the 8000, it was a pretty good machine.
