I think you might be able to do this with a toroid ion gun. It would be incredibly cool. [+] |
|

I saw this earlier today and was sure it had been posted
here before. I am back, later today (hmm… actually
tomorrow), to state this without
having looked for any evidence in the interval. |
|
| |
Well, I did the same amount of due diligence that I usually do, despite which I'm gonna claim 'deja vu' on your part. |
|
| |
It would be quite fun to prank faithful faith-healer followers
with one of these. How fast would the miracle dollars fly? |
|
| |
Ooh that gives me a money-making idea... |
|
| |
"It was like this small surge of energy I felt as soon as I
touched him..." |
|
| |
I no longer feel as if this has been posted before, for
some reason. |
|
| |
Combine with multiple source, designed sonic interference
and miracles can happen. |

I posted a vortex-ring Van de Graaff launcher idea like a week or two weeks ago.
It just got fishbones and no comments so I deleted it because I figured my physics on the subject must have been shit. |
|
| |
Okay, I vaguely remember that: I didn't understand it, so it was on the "wait for enlightenment" list. The "due diligence" remark was tongue-in-cheek. |
|
| |
2fries, It seems I was off HB for a week or two, otherwise, I
would have given you a croissant and asked why the fishbones
with no discussion. As it is, right now we are prohibited from
giving anything of that sort, till the end of Passover when we
can discuss pastry again. |

Sometimes expecting complete consistency in the
halfbakery in terms of idea judgment is simply asking for
too much. |
|
| |
It's not that. I'm just trying to figure out things I can't really visualise because they aren't tangible so I've never played with them. |
|
| |
So it was a bit of a stretch to think it might be possible to trap electricity in a torus ring and maybe even make it amplify as it travels. |
|
| |
One of the things I've always loved about this place is that if an idea is not plausible it will be shredded, expanded on, and rebuilt on eighteen different levels... just because it can be. |
|
| |
That idea dropped like a stone, so I figured... |
|
| |
...anyway, tornados make lightening. If you could make a tornado full of charged ferrous particles wrap around and eat its own tail then the differences between its temperature, humidity, and electrical potential with the surrounding air should continue to make it an airborne van de graaff machine and a rudimentary Leyden jar capacitor until it discharges. |

I remember that I deleted my "sport whaling"
concept because of an excess of bones. I regret it.
Sport whaling, we never knew thee. My "Blue
Haiku" concept just mysteriously disappeared from
the HB. Mysterious... |
|
| |
I say get that Vandyvortex back a churning, 2fry.
Don't let the bones get you down. |
|
| |
As regards this idea I am delighted. There is
nothing better than a static shock war; feet
scuffling, fingers flying. I have to think those ion
shooting air fresheners would be known to do this
if it were possible, no? |
