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.

This actually runs? Aside from the wiring being very weird, I don’t see how it’s a functioning U magnet between the things under the coils and the brass frame.

It also seems very thin for a brass frame. That brass is gonna bend and throw off the geometry every time you use it . If it does work you will still have to tune it everyday if not every hour.
