Swoopyswoop 0 #1 November 7, 2003 The beast was fired last night for the first time at the oakland crane yard. The coil was running around 40Kv on the primary side and a calculated output of about 2.2 million on the secondary side. Unfortunantely the transformer had a small meltdown after about 15 minutes of run time so we are shut down until I can find another or rewind this one. Our next project is going to be one of the largest plasma spheres ever built. Anyone that would like to help and is in the bay area email me and I will put some crews together. I need 4 people for an aerial crew and 6 for a ground crew. Give me a shout. I expect at leats one of the flugtag crew to sign for the aerial job LOL. Enjoy and many volts to you "when I die, I want to go like my grandfather while im sleeping, not like the passengers riding in the car with me Swoopster A.S.S. #6 Future T.S.S holder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McDuck 0 #5 November 7, 2003 I've always wanted a Tesla coil that could reanimate dead people. Holy CARP (the fish)! I'm willing to bet the mafia would pay big bucks for something like that.

McDuck 0 #10 November 7, 2003 heh heh heh I think that the sound of that thing cranking up would case perspiration and loss of bodily functions for even those people with a high tolerance for pain. Just the thought of being "licked" by that arcing blue tongue of death would cause John Gotti to soil himself.

Swoopyswoop 0 #11 November 7, 2003 OMG dude you have no idea the noise that it creates, If you can imagine the sound of a cheesy movie with a electric chair frying someone, then amplify that 100 times, we are getting close. My freaking ears still have a ringing in them. I would guess ear protection may be in order for the next round "when I die, I want to go like my grandfather while im sleeping, not like the passengers riding in the car with me Swoopster A.S.S. #6 Future T.S.S holder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Swoopyswoop 0 #20 November 7, 2003 The evil scientist, I guess that would be me LOL. I am hearing a lot of talk about about raves and disco's here that have sparked(no pun intended) a few ideas. Unfortunantly the radio interference is a limiting factor at this point. But give me a few days and I will figure it out.
