Love it. Although I don't own a detector at this time.Best treasure story I've heard is the one about somewhere in the the salt river there were some bandit's who stole a bunch of gold chalices from churches and crosses they got caught in a flash flood and were drowned in the salt river possibly in the phoenix area somewhere in the river bottom lies the booty.The salt river is dry in many places certain times of the year which allows great treasure hunting.The river is also home to hundreds of thousand people who inner-tube it in the summer.Great for finding spilled booty from cooler's that had valuables placed in them and then spilled upside down in the fast moving water.

Whites and Garrett both make very good metal detectors.  You could either get one of their mid-range models or buy a used version of a higher end one (maybe on eBay).  If you're just starting out, a mid range one is pretty good.  Here are some links for you to check out:\nhttp://www.garrett.com/\nhttp://www.whiteselectronics.com/

Prolly not.  But you can get one with a motion detector pretty easy.  Wouldnt it be more fun to actually catch the bastards?

Actually I was working on a cloaking device.  I never built a prototype though because the raw materials would have costed me $1000.  Plus, there are several different types of metal detectors and each one has to be fooled in a slightly different fashion.  If you really want to know, just buy a cheap metal detector and see if you can fool it.  I think it can be done.  If you find a way to bypass those blatently unconstitutional airport checkpoints you've got my full support.

I love gadgets, and I love metal puzzles, they keep you busy for hours trying to figure it out. It's just my opinion but your friend might love metal puzzles too.

I don't remember the ordering, but there's probably some metal out there that won't react?  Gold, maybe?  For regular metal, that sounds a bit iffy.

No, not me.  I am too much of an idiot to get certified in anything except perhaps as a certified nutjob.

Metal detectors look for the ability of metal to conduct an induced current.  A single atom cannot have an induced current on that scale.  You need a continuous loop of ground-state metal (not the ions in our blood) to get an induced current.
