i am fortunate enough to live just 45 minutes away from a brick and mortar metal detector store with lots of new and used detectors for sale.
I would love to be able to compare them on depth and thought maybe i could take a 6" diameter piece of pvc pipe, cap off the bottom, toss a coin in there and fill it up with dirt then cap off the other end. and make some simple stand for it.
i was thinking a silver quarter. so what might be a good depth test between several detectors? i was thinking 10", hoping many would miss it but a few fine machines would find it. Sort of like Cinderella and a glass slipper thing.
your thoughts on depth, etc, are appreciated.
