The purpose of this site is to provide information dealing with High Voltage and Electromagnetism, as well as a bit about some of my hobbies such as amateur radio and storm chasing. Many of the projects within this site utilize extremely high voltage and/or amperage sources that are 'One Touch Lethal'. If you make a serious mistake or miscalculation, it could cost you a great deal, and only money if your lucky. If you have not had experience in the construction and operation of such projects, I urge you to spend some time researching the nature of these projects, and also build smaller, less dangerous projects BEFORE you attempt the projects described here. I will include a 'Beginner's Guide' to some projects described here, such as the coilgun, that can be safely built, in a smaller form, by an inexperienced individual.
Navigation through this site is done using the menu bar on the top of your screen. If you have a question about anything seen in these pages, or find a problem with the site or the projects described, please feel free to Email me. I'm always happy to talk with a fellow electonics or amateur radio enthusiast.
Please do not email me asking me to draw you a schematic, or to design/build a project for you. I will post any plans or projects I intend to make public, and I don't have time to do the tedious work for you. You can only get from these projects what you put into them. If you don't put the blood, sweat, time, and tears into these projects, you will never get anything from them, other than a light show.
Please make the best use of the information you find here. Permission to use any material within this site, including photos, projects, or demonstrations, in unpublished school papers and projects is expressly granted and encouraged. If your struck by inspiration from a project here, PLEASE email me. I love talking to people about an as yet unexplored corner of the hobby.
This site is in a state of constant construction. The entire site is constructed manually using HTML scripting. For this reason its kind of basic as far as graphics, and sort of slow to develop, but I hope it conveys the intended information. I appologize for the banner and popup ads on the site, but because my last server, FSN deleted my site with no warning nor provocation, I'm stuck with a server that relies more heavily on advertising, atleast for the time being.
Happy Surfing,
Dave Marshall
