statik disk :
pick up disk  (Venyl  is very staik if fast turning.

here is an "dangeroeus" material.
hi static. If you go over there wit wool-socks.
you can ligth (for discharge) an neon tube.

This IKEA product  in home ist eveb working for Jears  to shock you
( so it is possibly the best matereial to use the for electrostacic maschines )

<<Hi Mike,
Thanks for the post, it's good to jump start interesting subjects like this again.  So you are a glass maker, that's cool. I din't get to hear that anyone need such as your services. But now that I know I sure let you know, man.

There is nothing wrong with getting paid by what you do! Plus glas making it's not an easy job either.
 
As far as the static generator goes I think best to use plexy glass or even better lexan.
see this: lexan vs plexiglass 5mm test http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFudrBqL_Ww

Testatika and Schamburger projects are great, I wish I had time and money to do experiments on them...

this video has been removed from youtube, it's not by the user ! as usual...hahahah

so it must be something interesting there...

i saw that one impressive, a wire spark with a balloon and steel wire

how to trap electro static, (and may be make it in a coil to lower voltage)

I know this is an old topic, but is there anything to it?

I got some questions about Owens device, which are not clear to me:  the picture shows that Owen uses a Magnetic Flywheel, powered by DC motor and around this flywheel is a 300 feet copper coil and around this coil is sheepskin or whool. Now 2 things are unclear:


First question: what is a "magnetic flywheel"? Is that
a) a flywheel which is just running on magnetic bearings or
b) is this some kind of flywheel with 4 magnets in it (each having the north pole outside, like shown in JNL orbo replication) which rotates and creating therefore power by induction?

Then second question:
How does the power get produced? Assuming that he generates electrostatic power this is only possible when the sheep skin rubs on the copper coil. That would cause however a huge friction.

But if that is the case, why do you need to have magnets (magnetic flywheel?) at all? Because then the Magnets would be attached to the coil and both are rotated at the same time in the same direction therefore not producing any induction effect at all.

So anyone can explain the setup, which part rotates, and which one not?
