Steve,

I know what you are thinking... Where was that when I started the ATX Frankentector???

Very interesting. The PI makin guys are gonna be all over this I reckon.

Be a interesting project, did a bit of a google search to find the stl files, no luck finding them. Currently 3D printer is building architecture 3D kit for grandson, but a metal detector project might delay such. Anything to stop "cabin fever".

Paul, tried to give you multiple "likes" but only accepted one, gotta keep you ahead of KL & SS.

I'll save myself a lot of trouble. I'm just going to 3D print nuggets.

Perfect comeback Klunker...

70 degrees and sunny here today---do you need me to run up there and help you bust some firewood...

[klunker]

 Thanks P. But I think I'll 3D print that also. I hope you and N. McQ get sunburned knees and your shorts get snagged on a cactus. I was told that S.Scott froze solid. I'm going to dress him as a wooden Indian and sell him to a tobacco store in Reno. Won't they be surprised when it warms up in May.

Dunno about the firewood but 3d printers only print nuggets downunder............you fellows should know that...........

[Sourdough Scott]

Lol, not froze solid. I stopped by today Klunker, Luther was there to greet me. He likes ham omelette. As you know klunker,  I have my own special detector in the works. Stay tuned. It is still in R&D. ( Rural Development ). Btw, we got down to -1°f last night. And lots more snow than you low landers.

 No sunburned knees yet, but I did lose a considerable amount of blood. I forgot how unfriendly the vegetation is in the desert.
