Electronics night request

#21

Can we make it red?

#22

is there a safe voltage to give a mild elertic shock?

#23

its the current that kills so as long as we keep that low, ramp up the volts all you like !

OK, Spec done, lets build… @dsikar are you taking the electronics lead on this ?
We also need a @woodtechs or wood ninja to knock up a frame. a simple box for the electronics with two uprights to take a bent stiff wire from post to post. any one hold their hand up for this ?

@joeatkin2 can add the 1000kv power supply later and decide where to connect the electrodes too as long as I can watch him personally test it ! :wink:

@peter_hellyer is in charge of painting it Red

Yes! Great.
This suggests the players are sitting side by side.

Could it work like “connect four” or “chess” so you’re facing your apponent?

#32

So, ah, is there a nub of a real thing that’s really going to happen here? For the party on the 10th?

#33

If someone can build the wooden part, we can to the electrical/ electronics part fairly quickly…

Courty

#34

I can build the wooden part!
Maybe I’ll come down tomorrow (Thursday)
And we can put it together???

#35

I’ve just been into Maplin so I have the basic parts…
See you Thurs…

Courty

#36

Wow!!!

Great stuff!!!

#38

Change of diary means I’m in the space now.
I’m grabbing scraps and making a box.

Whats the biggest component?
As in, how tall should the box be?
Is 75mm ok?

im going to drills holes in the top for the wires to come threw. Any particular size of hole good?

Does the box need a bottom? Might not have enough scrap for that. Maybe just a shelf for the battery?

Going for something like this:

There you go!

So the box sits between the players who face each other and race to the end of the wire - long ways

Looking good !
Need to see what we have to make the wire out of… needs to be stiff but bendable. Any ideas ?
