Tools and Hardware Reviews of Wizard Detectors 25506 Lumber Wizard III Metal Detector
Customer Review: Excellent Product!...Great Price....You Must Buy It!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought one of these lumber wizards last week. I had an urgent need to find a product that would help me detect metallic objects on lawns. Everytime I went to mow the lawns around the neiborhood, some of these objects would go in my lawnmower and ruin the blades. I had no idea what kind of objectwould ruin my lawnmower blades in such a way that I had to buy a new lawnmower blade every time.
Thank God for the "Lumber Wizard", It definetly helped me find the source of the problem. This incredible tool not only saves expensive planer blades, but it also saves expensive lawnmower blades.
Ever since I saw it advertised on TV, I though I have to order one from Amazon. The Lumber Wizard is a Fantastic Tool and an Incredible bargain!!!!...Get yourself one of these and you'll know what I mean!!!
Customer Review: If you are working with salvaged lumber...

and don't have a big budget, this is the right start. It seems to detect anything of any size that is metal. I burn up a bandsaw blade on a nail that I had no chance of seeing, but not anymore. This device has detected everything. It is quick and very easy.Customer Review: It works as advertised

I have purchased both units separately. The small unit can pickup heads of nail etc in walls but it is not sensitive enough to check for metal in wood before planing. The large red unit is great - it has an ear piece so you can hear sound as it senses metal while you in a noisy shop or other area as well as a vibrating mode or both.I did one sensitivity test. I drove 1/2" 18guage finish nail from my air gun into a 3/4" block of wood recessing it a fraction of an inch below the surface. The big unit picked up the brad on both sides of the wood. The little unit couldn't find it. I believe it's because their isn't enough mass in the tiny nail. If you like to recycle lumber or repair old furniture then the red unit will save your planer and saw blades which = frustration and money. It's great for finding hidden nails in repaired furniture

Don't buy this item. I tried 2 Lumber Wizard Metal Detectors and neither one worked. The first just gave a constant beeping sound. I returned that one and received another from Amazon. The second metal detector could be adjusted to work, but the sensitivity kept changing. It would beep constantly, then not beep at all when held near metal. In other words, it would work sporadically. Also, when not in use, it completely drained my battery over an 8 hour period.In short, I was zero for two and cannot recommend the Lumber Wizard Metal Detector.

Every wood worker with a planer or joiner should have one of these. The cost of one of these will save you valuable time and money on your blades by finding rouge nails hiding out in your wood. Just one nail will ruin your day and your blades, plus the time to reset your new blades.
I recommend this product.
