Maybe this is not the best forum for this post but if it helps anyone with ideas of their own I hope it helps. Bought a SM Pro circuit board and 10" coil off of eBay. The arm cuff and lower rod came from Kelly co. Think I found the shaft lock on eBay as well. Radio Shack had the 8 AA battery holder. Water tight box came from Walmart in sporting goods. Not sure how water tight it is now after punching holes in it. Used a metal broom handle for the upper rod and to attach the arm cuff to. Curved handle is a piece of PVC pipe heated at about 180 degrees in my oven. Does not take long, maybe 10 minutes. Formed it and inserted metal rods while hot. Works surprisingly well and not affected by salt at the beach. Coil will want to float so I used a bag of sand when wading. Does not miss a hair pin on the beach! PVC pipe also comes in handy for other modifications as well.
