How to do it 
1. Cut the copper sheet, trace the pattern, and etch it according to the prototype circuit board . 2. Use a drill to drill holes, connect the components, and solder them neatly, as shown in the picture. When finished, it will look like this.

3. To make a dummy coil,

you need to find the number of turns to wrap the copper coil using the Coil32 app to calculate
 . Download this app and enter the values ​​as shown in the picture.Make a jig with a diameter of 160 mm and wrap it according to the number of turns calculated.Connect the finished coil to the metal detector circuit.  4. It’s done. Then put in the batteries and try to detect different types of metal.
