Hi everyone,
Just thought I would introduce myself.  I am currently in my third year at Marquette University majoring in electrical engineering.  I look forward to learning a lot of interesting things on this site

Hi & welcome aboard. With your major, you should build a detector this winter, from the "how-tos" on this site, and do some treasure hunting this spring! Sue

You came to the right spot for learing about building a metal detector! Good luck!

I'd love to learn how to build a metal detector-but haven't had electronics training---are there any kits a person can buy like the mags used to advertise in past? I'd like to be able to use scrap parts from radios or computer circuit boards so it wouldn't cost so much or would that be advisable?  I know a fellow who builds a good PI unit and I've kind of sat in on some of his working sessions  and helped him pour the epoxy in coils and build headphones-but I really didn't get into any of the technical stuff---I think a PI unit may be simplest form of detector to build and get in working order--but not totally sure--seems like I've read that, though???

Hi, conwaysoccerguy, You could suere enough build a detector if you wanted too with your education. The fellow I used to help on building detectors was also taking courses in electronic engineering-his was a correspondence course by Cleveland School Of Electronics, I think. He built pulse and TR water hunting machines.
