I have a couple of different ones you can have a look at if you want an idea of what they do. Send me a message and we can arrange a meet up some time if you like.

Hi mark...yes the F2 is a great beginner machine...I bought one for my 7 year old son so that tells you how easy it is to use..
he loves it and any silvers he finds he is saving up to buy a computer game..lol..

I sell the f2 as does my friend who is the fisher dealer for newzealand..just click on the bottom of my post and it takes you right to our website.
it has both mine and roberts contact numbers

Though I haven't got one myself, I recommend the fishers from nzpoohbear (Chris) or rgmcbrid (Robert) and can attest their dedication and service to their customers. My brother bought a gold bug from Robert. Take up mineforgold's offer too, as the ability to test out a detector and have training from an old hand is worth its weight in gold.
