Stud Finder

No, not your loose second cousin on your father's side, but the electronic ones. Just wanted to post that I tried my Zircon TriScanner Pro on the outside of my rig, just to experiment, and it easily located the metal studs in the wall. Does the same when trying to locate the metal framing members under the overhang. This is the type of stud finder that can be selected to locate wood studs, deep studs, and metal studs. It also locates live AC wiring in the walls.

In the past, there has been discussion about using one of these for mods involving the walls, but I don't remember an actual resolution to the question. So there it is.

John,
Did you try it on the roof? I bought a Zircon stud finder when I installed my solar panels and sat dish on the roof and could not make sense of the results. Could not find any "rafters" just some heavier supported areas. FYI - the factory did not have a drawing for my BH 3185
