Scott's Wimshurst Machine!
Jake von Slatt — Tue, 05/12/2009 - 12:33

I wrote an article that appeared in the last Make: Magazine which outlined detailed steps for building a Wimshurst Influence machine. It's a fairly involved project so I am gratified to see that people are actually building it!
There are at least a half dozen people who have written me with questions about substitutions and troubleshooting but Scott is the first to send me pictures of his completed machine.
I like what he's done with the natural finish and you'll note that he's opted for more sectors which should increase the current output of his machine in comparison to mine.
Thanks Scott!
More after the cut . . .
UPDATE: Plans for my Wimshurst Machine are now available here!
