Kris,
Seems there was discussion about scanners before and I
don't remember anyone saying they found one that was reliable especially
with varying roofing materials. Our current method is fist-thumping to
get in the area of the rafter, drill exploratory hole then use the
Chiptoolz rafter finder:

Its stupid simple low-tech but works great. Could be there is now a
reliable hi-tech scanner that works in all cases.
