I have a minelab 705 I have 3 coils one of which is the 9 inch concentric 7.5 kHz
What I need help on is this one of the tabs that the bolt goes through to mount the coil to the detector shaft broke off
Is there a way to repair this

With the correct Solvent/Adhesive you can do it.

You have all the Parts?

If you could post a couple of high resolution pictures some of the DIY types are sure to offer advice.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

No I don't have the broken tab
When I purchased the 705 it came with the three coils and I knew the 9 inch CC coil had a broken tab but it was such a good deal I could not pass on it

I am going the have to build a bracket or something
Just trying to get some ideas as to how I can fix

Will try to get a couple of pix

Is it a hopeless cause or is it repairable I would like to be able to use the 9 " cc coil.but I'm stating to think it may be a hopeless cause and I would be better off purchasing a new one

A photo would be good.

If the coil is working now, You should be able to correct it.

It can definitely be repaired but it may not be pretty. Functional is the best you can hope for. It really would help to see a photo of how bad the damage is.
