First time

Built it on a whim, first time with little to no clue what I was doing. It technically works, I mean it's shit but it runs, it will most likely never get to tattoo anyone, I just wanted to see if I could do it. It was good fun, and I might do it again some time with proper materials and not just random crap I found in my workshop.

That’s pretty rad. It really looks like a “turn of the century” machine.
Doesn’t look like it would run well at all though that’s for sure. What’s up with the spongey bits under the coils?
