I've never said I'm making a new ferret finder, those that I've spoken to have always been told "we"  There's 3 of us in this project and always has been from day one. Cloning a Mk1 locator isn't

I cant say anything about final prices but the other two guys involved have been told from day one, we ain't doing this and taking the piss on the price. Money is not the motivation behind this for me

Les makes all his carry boxes himself,, rigs all his long nets also ,, if and it's very rarely he needs a few purse nets to up his stock then he only goes to trusted net makers ..

Once you get your head round the mk3 boxes they were better than mk1. 

agreed ....

my first mk3 the depth was always short....or long depending on your view....if it said 3 foot....the depth was 2 foot....but it was deadly acurate as to the exact spot above the collar/ferret...

the new mk3 i have is deadly acurate both with depth and being right above....

as much as i like the old grey knocker box....the new m3 is better

The lack of interference and the search function are good too.

When you google Deben, there seems to be no website or contact details 

Chuff me they have disappeared, thought they made the Terrier Boxes as well? I won't be chucking my locator under the hedge to my mate this season ?

Somebody on ebay selling new MK1 boxes £155. Sold by KLM  zytecsystems. Pictures of the insides looks the same as old MK1's reckon they might had bought the rights of Deben's or the Patent has run out.

Cheers Arry

Think he’s just copied them
