Picture
I made myself a tiny Van De Graaff electrostatic generator. Great for making really small sparks.

BUILD DETAILS:
  • The bottom roller is 3d printed and wrapped in PTFE tape.
  • The top roller is glass.
  • The belt is rubber.
  • The sphere is stainless steel (I cut a hole in a garden gazing ball).
  • The combs are made of copper wire strands.
  • Uses a 3v motor powered by two AA batteries.
