hello

where did you buy your detector and coil housing pls.

Coil housing I made from a coil cover . . the circuit board you can find in ebay from my friend tacoma who sells them .

dear Finn, can you tell me about where you did buy so wonder underwater housing and a price?

Nice build! Looks like coil mounting ears came from another coil ... old coil serial number now obscured with the epoxy!

Did you use a meter to check the coil inductance or is it just a fixed number of turns of a fixed size of magnet wire?

That's a fixed set of windings . 10 inch with 22 wraps and then taped. yes the coil ears are from an old coil and placed inside a coil cover . Then filled with casting resin . The inductance is 12

finnfoto,
With the things you have been building and what Sven has built, I'm feeling some motivation to dust off the work bench and get to work.
Thanks for posting the projects!

Must admit i really like seeing some of these superb detectors that you guys come up with,you have great talent and imagination also plays a big part in these home brew machines.

Many thanks for showing us your latest creation.

Thanks Mega. I dont wanna burst my own Bubble on this one but I am really pleased with the performance of the pi unit. very sensitive. However. My latest creation with the Pyle headphone unit. I call the Buccaneer. for a single frequency vlf. with the Detectorpro characteristics. I am not exagerating when I say It gets CZ,20,21 depth and sensitivity. Im hoping this one will take off and I can get a few wanters. cheers

Hello finnfoto, wher did you get the housing for the electronics? I've been searching for a good waterproof case for a while. Thanks!

Honestly this is an ike lite camera case. However you can go thru whites in virginia and get the surfmaster dual field field control box with side clamos, o,ring, for around 75.00

Thanks for the heads up!
