Nathan Stubblefield Earth battery/Self Generating Induction Coil Replications

@Bill and Jim,
Thank you both.

Yes, Bill I misunderstood you. I did think you were telling me to use propane to weld it. I thought you could not and I am grateful for the clarification.
propane to solder the copper.
nah!
I would love to have a soapstone table top, or even firebrick. Then I would do this, but I am not going to bend over to do this on my garage floor. nah!

I will solder it with a solder iron. This is 24 gauge copper wrapped with cotton. It will be fine.

But first I will check out what I get from one third of what I have, and I will show what happens.

thanks,

jeanna

Jeanna:

Yes, you have got it now.  I am sorry I was not clear earlier, I was in a hurry.

@ All:

Lidmotor has just posted his replication of Lasersaber's Stubblefield coil here:

This looks good.

It's great to see another working coil, even if it is being helped out a little by a battery.

I'm thinking that the iron wire and bolts are going to prove problematic. I built my coil much the same as Lidmotor and got very similar results.

I have ordered a batch of ten of those same cores that Lasersaber used from SargentWelch.com...waiting for delivery now. I'll be rebuilding my existing coil using one of those cores to compare the results.

I've also found a source of cotton covered wire here in Oregon...custom made to order for around the same price from the UK. So when I use up my glass covered wire, I'll be ordering some of that.

I hope its not a secret!

It is.   

Actually, I asked him whether he'd mind if gave out his contact information here and he hasn't responded yet.
