Hi all, does anyone have any ideas on the best place to get a 'finds pouch' rather than getting something branded in from the US. Maybe Bunnings or Mitre10, and what should I be looking for?

I find a bum bag to be handy. The pinpointer and digger mount on the belt of it & I have a another larger bag (a Garrett freebe) also attached to the belt for the junk. All the good finds go into the small front pocket of the bum bag and gloves, headlight, spare batteries etc into the main pocket.

If thinking of using a tool belt then make sure that one of the pockets can close securely. There will be nothing worse then getting home and finding out that the gold ring you found must have dropped out.

Op Shop bum bags. :)

Grab em for $2 whenever you see them, keep a stash and throw them out when they wear out. :)
