Cypher, Were I you, I would look at a Garrett. They make metal detectors you might find in the hands of a security guard. Which, in my mind, would be perfect for your application.

As I understand it, he attempted to license the technology and then decided to use the federal government and the court system to force it on the market when they weren't interested in his terms. I believe his antitrust suit against them was in progress while he was attempting to license it to...

There is an ad on the local CL for a walker turner drill press. The highlights are that the seller "knows what it is" and is will to "share at this price." The reader is advised that it "won't last at this price" though it has been for sale for months and has dropped nearly 30%. . . .
