Please, I want to help build a simple metal detector

[ODM]

Highly recommended to build a kit, instead of trying to find parts and trying to make a board yourself.
-Kit is built and tested, pcb flaws are minimal
-Easier to debug when instructions are followed step by step
-The components are known to be OK

[Hammerhead]

In that case, how are you ever going to build it, even if you have an image of the PCB layout?

Hello all of you in this link found on almost everything from the circle Barracuda problem lies in the capacitor 6n8j250 does not have a in Egypt, and I'll keep my attempt until Create METAL DETECTOR myself

I'm sorry this is the link and I hope to comment http://romaniagoldrecovery.blogspot....es-casero.html

Welcome your in Alexandria anytime I want I love the Turkish people and thanks to feel good in helping me to make METAL DETECTOR I just want a photo pcb and the image of the list of ingredients electronic device fit to work in the beaches and I think that this semi-prohibited devices in Egypt once again thank you for how you feel good my friend Ahmed

metal detectors hunting is fully restricted in Egypt and generally in all countries of Magrib. thus sometimes i write in
a declaration 'printed board'. you see - no there a word 'electronics'. also, people write 'a receiver'.
that is working )

Why don't you build either Surf-PI, Baracuda, or Minipulse Plus?
Any of these will work if built on stripboard -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stripboard
Then you don't need a PCB.

If you can make PCBs yourself, then here's a single-sided version of the Surf-PI ->

Q do you have all the files for that pcb ? I would like to check something thanks.

Q do you have all the files for that pcb ? I would like to check something thanks.

I think this is the schematic that goes with the PCB layout.

Thanks Q, I should have been a little clearer, I am guessing that the pcb was done in sprint layout, if so would you have the .lay file for it thanks.

@ kt315
What the hell are you doing in Egypt? Digging tunnels below pyramids?
And as long as you don't go to special areas, hunting at sun-beaches is childs-play.
You can hunt for tourist-souveniers there while other tourists are watching you.
Next time tell the security you go to the disco and instead you go to the next archaeological site at night!

Siberia and also the region where you life is useless for treasurehunt in wintertime - only if you work in mines or with excavators.
There is winter-perma-frost-ground right now.

If you wanna help here in this thread why you don't send Hammerhead a ready to go PCB with all components so he just has
to add some stuff like coil, speaker, switch, LED etc.? Declare it as radio-repair-part or whatever.



@ Hammerhead
Well, at the moment it is also "relative" cold at Alexandria. This is the northern air from the mediterranean sea.
Without warm Sahara winds the temperature can go down. Actual internet info: Alexandria: 5° to 20° celsius.

We don't wanna get you into trouble but you might buy some already ready to go PCB-metal detector board.
Or you check out old broken electronic devices for needed parts.
I would try to built some already waterproofed metal detector when you like to dive anyway.
If you have some connections you can drive to Cairo and order some metal detector from Turkey -
this is the closest country. Or you can get one from the egypt military (demining-detector).
But maybe this only works for you with really good connections and enough bakshish.


Do you know that you are a very luck person, Hammerhead, because you are living in a land full of old treasure
where you can search for them the whole year long. No frustrating winter-pause.
Thank you for the offer, directly at the moment it is not possible for me to visit Alexandria
but I hope its possible sometimes, because the winter all over Europe is just terrible and a waste of time.

Hello Mister fun finder We in Alexandria us way in the extraction of gold and silver coins and everything that comes to your mind without metal detectors and soon will post video explains that way when improving weather conditions I just want to develop a practical and when Make METAL DETECTOR will save me time and effort and this is what you I want

[Hammerhead]

I want to tell you something that we envy the freedom that you will enjoy the space under the laws apply to the minister and the Pauper

[Funfinder]

If you use a sieve for the sand you can find also alot other interesting stuff.

Every country has its good and bad sides. Too bad that the "Arabic Spring" leaded to chaos
and afterwards even all the tourists no longer wanted to go to Egypt because of the high danger.
Meanwhile the exploded russian plane is the next big problem.
But I know Egypt and the young people are really cool and modern thinking there.
And you have peace in your country compared with the neighborhood. Good luck, pal.

Someone should make some Surf Pi's in surface mount for this guy;



I have an idea to make just one pot (Delay) that could be plugged into the
headphone jack. (With Volume in the headphones too). Something like
those pyle detectors on Ebay; http://www.ebay.com/itm/PYLE-PHMD4-T...p2056016.l4276

[bernte_one]

you can make a simple Version of surf pi with PIC Controller for timing part in smd

Good evening, Mister fun finder I do not use a sieve in my work I work in shallow water and deep and I do dig the sand until I get to the ground hard inside the water used in a strong fins mean when things fall hard in the waters of the beach sink into the sand of soft even hit the ground hard and keep there soon will post a video explaining the way to I need is to strength, patience and endure cold water in winter

[Hammerhead]

Good evening, Mister fun finder We do not work on the sands of the beach at all even though it is full of gold and silver and many other things in order that I want to make a device METAL DETECTOR to work on the sand because it does not require a physical activity forces because I am suffering now from roughness knee disease
