Nathan Stubblefield Earth battery/Self Generating Induction Coil Replications

@all,
Thanks everyone of you all for those kind words regarding my cotton winding machine.

Please understand it's not completed yet, the winding part still needs tuning up a bit, the electronics (PWM circuit boards) which I have here have to be assembled, then there is the Feed and wind/take off support mechanism and it's electrical drive to be built.

A lot of work still to happen ha ha, but I'm enjoying myself.

@Iota
The stubblefield coil needs the interaction between the bare copper and iron wires, and the water bridges between them being the galvanic component, if either of the wires were covered in an electrical insulation the coil would not work.

But, I totally agree with your opinion of using cotton on an iron wire instead of the copper wire, cotton on either wire forms the barrier between them.

But if cotton was wound on BOTH bare copper and Iron wires, then as ....... said, you wouldn't need a layer sheet of cotton to seperate between layers, it's a very novel idea and when my cotton winding machine is working I will shuve some iron wire through it and see what happens when I wind a stubblefield coil with it.

@ All,

Success is announced, I have been able to cover a wire with cotton thread, not just a few inches but about 6 to 7 feet of it.
It finally happened, but I have been able to cover a "wait for it" (0,099 inch or 2.52mm) IRON WIRE with cotton thread.

One very big surprise I got was the amount of effort I had to exert to draw the wire through the machine. 
It so happened I had about 30 feet of high tensile IRON fencing wire laying about here, so it got the honours of being the very first to be put through the cotton winding machine.
Because the iron wire was so springy, I had to feed it through a long steel tube to keep it straight and in line with the feed hole. I can see any iron wire will have to be heat treated before it could be utilised on a stubblefield coil.

What I want to do is to post several tiny weeny videos here so anyone can get the idea of how the machine works.
We will start by doing a 360 degrease around the rotating machinery, then move onto the next TWV and then onto the last TWV.

Jim:

You are a genius sir!  That is GREAT!  So now, we can all ship you our wire and, for a fee of course, you can coat it in cotton for us.

THE ELECTRICME COTTON WIRE COVERING COMPANY

In a year, or less, you will be bigger than Microsoft.

This is truly an awesome design.  I will drink a toast to you, and your success, tonight before bed.

Excellent.

if either of the wires were covered in an electrical insulation the coil would not work.

Not according to NS. Also the copper was originally insulated and not bare except on the secondary.  Both wires could be insulated with cotton. He stated the magnetic field intensity wouldnt be as strong which I disagree with. Also I see a dead short if both wires are in contact when current is running through the copper wire. Or both wires could be considered as one making the polarity the same. The strength of the galvanic current might lower with both wires insulated,but tests need to be done as to how much.

A great job of engineering the cotton machine. Par Excellence!!

@Bill,
Good idea, we can get out custom cotton covered wire from our own source

@Jim,

That machine is amazing.
You did this so well, and quickly too!

I love that machine.

thank you master of machines,
