Big Jeff Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I have an older SDv2 series Minelab and am out of ideas as how to pack everything up into one transportable storage unit. 3 coils, 2 of those John Deere sized batteries, cables chargers plus all the other little essentials. I have a soft case for it but that doesn't even come close. Pictures please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nugget Shooter Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Frank C. showed a nice one he came up with in the DIY section a while back.... At least that is where I think I remember seeing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Au Seeker Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Jeff, Here's a link to Frank's post on the box he built. http://www.nuggetshooter.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=19232&hl=%2Bdetector+%2BstorageSkip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jeff Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 Thanks, I found it, but was thinking more store bought and reasonably cheap (if that's even possible)... Seems Frank has more skills than I can muster anytime soon. Although that is really kick ass! :wubu: Frank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Dorado Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I was able to pack everything into a Contico container when I traveled back and forth to Brazilhttp://www.amazon.com/Contico-23-gallon-Storage-Locker/dp/B000R8DIFE/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jeff Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 That's what I need however currently unavailable... Is there anywhere that stuff like that would be sold locally?... Besides wallyworld... I haven't been inside one of those stores in over 3 1/2 years and don't want to ruin my record. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nugget Shooter Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Wal-Mart has a grey version of that for about 20.00 bucks, I have a couple of them and they hold up very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennM Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Sgt Frank and I both have golf club travel bags (suitcase, if you will)His is an older one and very hard to find with individual slots for clubs. He turned it inside outmine is made to put your entire club bag inside. I just built a padded pvc frame inside for some rigidity and it has wheels.I can fit all five of my coils, with lower shafts, in with batteries and such.Look at Goodwill or similar. Found mine at a swap meet for $20 or so.Both are soft- side with padding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Dorado Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 You're like me and will not step foot in a wallyworld... I am pretty sure Lowe's has them too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank c Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 2ND that Lowes , its worth a trip to see whats in stock.I recently scoured many stores for a new utility box to mount on the back of the quad and found a nice one at Lowes its wide enough to keep my 8" ML coil mounted on a lower rod stowed in there with plenty more room waterproof and dustproof seal on it too.
