Excal 2
There's enough bumph on the interwebs about these machines. So I won't bother cutting and pasting all the sales blah blah blah....
It is:
Older model with stock 10" coil
Aftermarket knobs
O rings replaced late 2014 and control pod purged with dry nitrogen (one advantage of being a LabRat)
Guard included for knobs, but took off machine as I look after my kit. It's there if you want it.

NOTE
In present configuration, suitable only for wading up to neck as original Koss phones died and were replaced with Garrett Masters as a temporary fix. Ended up upgrading to another machine so never got around to swapping them out for wet phones.
Ref: Phones Swap

Can be reinstated to submersible phones if you really wanted, by fitting Grey Ghost Amphibians (rated 10m from memory) or similar, depending on how deep you want to go.

Comes with brand new Stock shaft and both 12v and 240v chargers

Upgraded last year and this machine became my loan unit for visitors, but want to release the funds for another toy.
Absolutely nothing wrong with it, and a great salt machine for someone looking to start exploring the gold-zone on the beach.

This beastie has accounted for my (only) sovereign, and many gold and silver rings out of the wet sand and waves.

Reflecting age of machine, I'm selling for $900(firm) plus courier.

No time wasters please!
