I hope this is in the correct section.
I have been experimenting with metal detectors for several years now. I am a trained machinist, and proficient on all machines manual or computer controlled. I have enough machining CNC equipment, carbon fiber, and tooling to make minelab cry. I have a working knowledge of how to keep electronics waterproof, and have almost TWO DOZEN designs of how I can easily make a waterproof detector. Just to hit the highlights, I have experimented AND WORKED THE BUGS OUT in these areas....
-Carbon straight shafts.
-one of a kind molded plastic or carbon housings
-Machining waterproof housings out of aluminum, carbon, and solid lexan
-Building waterproof headphones
-Tweeking and testing the electronics of simple mid range machines to meet water hunting standards.
Without giving away too much.....
I know how to make the "DETECTOR" just not the brains (motherboard). I have the shaft, housings, batteries, coils, weight, and balance covered..... but I am no electronics genius. YES I can add a sensitivity or volume, or pinpoint..... but I am lost when It comes to starting from scratch. (AND I DON"T WANT TO START FROM SCRATCH) I have built and tested a few waterproof machines utilizing the electronics of the higher end tesoros, as well as the lower end fishers. But I need to know where to go from here. I have the housing and detector unit ready..... but I cant just rip off someone else's technology. But I don't want to build it myself either lol..... SOOOOOOOOO? I guess Im stuck to making these kick azzz "detectors" and sticking someone elses brains in it? These housings are BY FAR lighter and well balanced.... far beyond the water machines I have tried. I am not even sure why im posting this ...... I have just hit a wall and need some help.
I have the materials, the machining capabilities, and the design.... But now I need that rare thing that not everyone has.... REAL BRAIN POWER>>>>>
