Electrolysis on old Jeep Rim

[Mr3wheeledbike]

whats the pump for

[Aussie50]

@Mr3wheeledbike circulation through a filter and cooling coil when the system is running high amps for long periods of time

[themomo6710]

how many volts?

[Aussie50]

@themomo6710 24V from a copier switchmode supply. bout 12 - 15A

cool. you should have you power supply fans on a separate supply because you dont want them slowing down when your at full load, thats just asking for fire.lol

[Aussie50]

It won't burn, but in summer it may need extra cooling.

the slowing of the fans tells me if its overloading, then I move the workpiece around or limit the current flow.

oh wait... you already have one :)

you need to get an air raid siren to play with

or make a fire piston with your lathe

both are fun

[Aussie50]

I was building a home made air raid siren a few years back but couldn't get castings for the rotor and housing (I think it has a centrifugal fan rotor on it at the moment.)

I'll do an updated tour vid soon, I've changed a lot since I did the first one.

i built one out of an old backpack blower and some sheet aluminum, it was LOUD!!! i had to get rid of it though, neighbors hated me lol.

i'm looking forward to more vids!

[Aussie50]

awesome, I'll have to make a shroud for mine and try it out. maybe an old aluminum saucepan would work if I cut and slot it to the right size.

@Aussie50 Everyone need their own air raid siren lol. I would like to see a 10kW one :) I could put one together using a fender bass cab speaker and head and a mp3 I have of an actual air raid siren coupled to a pair of 1kW Crown amplifiers, :-D

[pixuma]

i gotta build me an electrolosis tank!

aah, i need more!!!!!!!!!
