I actually think it does look quite neat.

I'm thinking the beach will be a good place to start Minx, and the lockdown restrictions will be lifted for travel on the 29th March. So it's looking good for then..... I might not be too successful until I've practiced for a while, but even a bottle top in the early days will be a result....

It's a pity Minx didn't live a bit closer JB because I ordered bits enough to build two, just in case I had an accident....But all went well first time....

Thanks Besoeker, I might try and make the search coil a bit more water resistant so it will work on wet grass etc... But it won't stop me going out with it next week...

WD40 might work. Water displacement is what it is called but I'm sure you know about that. It shouldn't compromise the search coil insulation. Or a very thin silicone rubber tube......

Thanks Besoeker that sounds like a great idea, especially the silicone......

That's a thought JB, if I build another it will give Mrs Fox something to do as well.....

Just to be clear. When I said that it does not need to look pretty, I meant the rework you did to counter the thermal runaway
You know that I have a high regard for your workmanship. It’s top shelf!
And, your workshop is so neat and tidy! Extra points!
