Just thought I'd post a pic of the belt-pouch set-up I use during my hunts. May be useful for some to see...........or maybe not.
The "warrior" tool belt is from M10......can't remember the cost now but it was under $30. The only modification I have made to it, is a piece of Velcro to keep the small front pocket closed. This pocket is where I put the good finds! The Lesche knife and pin pointer are both attached to the tool belt via their respective pouches.

Please feel free to post a pic or two of your personal favourite set-up. I'm sure there must be some interesting, useful and innovative set-up's out there.

Cheers and happy hunting all.

My complete kit. Based on a bum bag which has surprised me by lasting the distance! Good finds go into the front zipped portion, rubbish into the large Garrett bag to the side. Lesche and Pro-pointer threaded onto the belt, folding saw, spare batteries, gloves (a must!), headlamp and cloth for loose soil all go into the large zipped pocket.

The good thing about it is that everything lives in there so when going on a hunt I only need to grab the bag of the hook and know that I will have everything needed (apart from the detector of course!).

Thanks for that Shilo. Yeah, the gloves and spare batteries are a must and I too keep those with the pouch. The small folding saw is a great idea and one I hadn't considered. Thanks for the idea.

Any other "usefuls" that people keep in their arsenal?
