I ordered this exact circuit online from eMag and it arrived two weeks ago. It didn't have the S9018 transistor and instructions. The spot for the S9018 transistor was unmarked and I assumed that I needed another to solder a S9012 transitor there. Now I finally know how this metal detector is supposed to work and I'll solder the correct transistor to make this metal detector work now. :)

When you splash tons of liquid solder onto the board, even if you apply a lot of rosin sometimes it tends to make short-circuits on the other side. I tested it myself.
@@theodiscusgaming3909 I know what soldering a through hole component is ffs ! its hardly a 'splash' or a 'leak' is it ? ...read the original comment again.
I love using rosin dissolved in IPA: this way you can paint the area where you're gonna solder and avoid this dirty brown mess that's inevitable when using hard rosin.
I use a similar thickness solder along with an old soldering gun. If anyone's wondering it is easy to properly solder 0.1" parts with it. But if I finally get some loose flux I will need to try this crazy technique.
This can be an advanced version of the selective wave soldering process maybe more wavey and more selective at same time. Longer tip with compressed end act as heat ballast to get better temperature regulation by gun on/off switch.
a wound coil of copper at its points of field act as the transmitter while the whole coil acts as a reciever so theres no needs to use a seperate coil for transmitting as both work in unison :) saves time and lots of money that way for other projects.
You should try making some device from a TESLA kit i still have one lying around unpacked for some kind of audio amplifier for some kind of headphones . It would be fun if you could find one and solder a 30+ year old TESLA kit , unfortunately i can't donate mine as the package has the items in it damaged . Of course they might be very hard to find so i don't know if that's possible .
It is great 👍 Especially your mounting skills with the big Soldering Iron 😅 So if I ever need someone to solder my newest invention, a switchable black hole, I will ask for, your help 😄😂👍
I keep seeing this being advertised on Wish (I don't have the app, it's just an advertisement on Facebook). There is no information about it. Just a picture of the assembled unit. A quick glance had me thinking it was some sort of cheap knock off wireless charger.
hy , if you build a seperate larger coils by the same circuit , the detect range will be greater , and with a more sensitive better amplifer also more range
Do you mind providing the name of the rosin and solder thank you I will try this way I'm having little luck with the precision soldering. Things are probably getting to hot.
I mostly struggle to read the markings on resistors, especially on blue enamel. This is one of two points where SMD components are better than THT ones.

Ah, you did the soldering wrong. When you get excess solder on the tip of the iron, you don't attempt to reuse it. Instead, what you must do is use a quick whip action of your wrist to flick the excess solder off the tip and across the room in the direction of a coworker. The job is complete when each article of their clothing has received a generous splashing of the solder.
I wonder why they used a UHF RF transistor (9018) for such a low frequency oscillator? I'd be interested to see how well it'd work with a common audio frequency device.
Danyk, how do you do reverse engineering and draw the schematics? There are some secrets or easy way to do? Can you make a video showing us how do you get the schematics for example of a ATX power supply or UPS
am i correct in assuming that one of those 3 (the single wound line of contact) is the transmitter line? which must be really weak in my mind before even building my own mds-60 kit :/
most of my builds are made with a single coil using only 2 contacts which act as a transmitter/reciever all in one so theres no need for a seperate transmitter coil like the DD coil has for example
@DiodeGoneWild>> why is there 3 lines of contact on the coil on this circuit? can you explain please as i've never seen a metal detector coil that has 3 most of mine are 2 or 4 contact lines :/ 2 being singular coil and 4 being dual transmit and reciever so 3 is a bit mind boggling lol
I have this same kit!! Maybe if you change the S9012 with another transistor, but A DARLINGTON ONE, maybe the gain will be higher and maybe it can detect at more distance? Maybe?
Thank you for your efforts to train and entertain us! Much fun! A few good laughs! 1) If the unit is detecting aluminum, might it be that the unit is really just a capacitive sensor? 2) I think that the capacitor C5, on the buzzer, is just to make sure the buzzer has a continuous tone... Meaning, that it would not make a scratchy sound, as the circuit turns on and off, with minor fluctuation in the distance to the metal object being detected. 3) I watched this video, because I wanted to see if the unit might make a good sensor for a motorized, hands-free, solder wire dispenser. The technician would use a bit of wire and, then, the dispenser would advance the solder wire back to the point of beginning. I hate trying to pull out fresh wire, with my hands full of a really hot soldering iron. That's just plain dangerous, in my opinion. Do you have a suggestion for a better sensor for that purpose?
@DiodeGoneWild >> any chance you can do a video with the MDS-60 but copy the circuit onto your own pcb showing soldering and making your own separate coil please?
So what is needed to detect from farther away? This looks like it in not very useful, because it's only detecting from 1 or 2 inches away. And that's through air, without any dirt blocking the signal. What would you need to change about it in order to make it detect say a foot or two deep, through soil? Would the same circuit work for that, perhaps with more volts and a modified (wider?) coil? That included potentiometer seems to offer too much of a range to be of any use getting a finely-tuned discrimination level.
also, you would make louis rossman happy with your use of not enough flux, never enough flux!!! does the coil detect the same distance from front and back of the coil? it could be pure proximity or it could be directional
It works! Not very well, but it works. I suppose its good for finding lost screws in carpet, but the depth of detection is a bit lacking. Not bad for such a simple circuit though i suppose. Reminds me of my old Radio Shack $20 metal detector. Its good for about 2 inches deep.
A lot of changes actually. This simple circuit can't detect anything 30cm away, not even an anvil. A long time ago I tried a very simple BFO detector, it also does about 5-10cm. The only detector I built that could detect big metal things about 40cm away and coins about 20cm away was a double D coil one. Two transistors in a ZVS sine wave oscillator for the transmission coil and 3 to 4 transistors in the receiver - HF amplifier, demodulator, LF amplifier, some LED or buzzer for indication.
I like it. Why not get rid of the buzzer tho? Extremely annoying buzzer which is intended for alarm, not notification. Makes great torture device on the cheap...
Nice If possible, making a video about increasing the sensibility of this little metal detector by increasing the coils and/or adding more components like transistors or ICs
the only downside to using a single coil is that the more depth/width of magnetic field you want you have to use more winds of copper to achieve this using a single coil and copper isn't exactly cheap these days and 150 turns of 0.2mm copper wire is kinda weighty
"Let's solder horribly... Because it's more fun" 😂😂
I came here to post exactly the same quote but you beat me to it! Classic DGW.

You could use your new metal detector to find your thin solder wire!

I'd say, they even can get more fun.

Great video. I think I might make one of these with my daughter.
You possibly inadvertently set a world record on putting this circuit together. 😆🏆
"Even more rosin!!!!" - i can hear those words in Diode's voice
Many of us can play it in our heads in _his_ voice!
@Agustinus Reynaldi the whole room is shaking
More rosin, more rosin please 😂😂
I am always here because i love the way he speaks/explains.
next time just leave the buzzer sticker there to help reduce beeping volume, headphone users will be thankful :D
Oh, I rarely peel the sticker for this very reason you mentioned.
Maybe get a better quality headphone.
or add a better new sticker
Just put some scotch tape around your headset to reduce the annoying buzzing sound.
9:00 Louis Rosmans last name should be rosin, that would explain his love for flux :D
his flux is not rosin based, I think!
I just checked; it is! It's rosin based, which makes it all the more fascinating how they can get it this good.

Suggest you muffle the squeezer so we can hear you without turning down the volume to suppress the major irritation
I had solder like just two times, and every time it's like a brain surgery.
Thanks for giving me confidence!
You should put more rosin in the beeper hole.
He keeps on showing "Even more rosin!!!" 🤣🤣. At least the whole floor is not shaking.
I had to take some extra anti-OCD pills and wash my hands with isopropanol to recover from watching that soldering.
It worked.
I recommend you to take a bath in IPA it works much better. I tested.
