Linked as an example of a home-built arc furnace running from a microwave oven transformer; viewers note it is fiddly and raises real safety questions.
A demonstration of the curious ball bearing motor, which spins for no obvious reason, linked as an odd project along with a theory of why it turns.
Demonstrates rewinding a microwave transformer for very high current; linked for the technique, alongside clear warnings that this kind of project is dangerous.
