big mot, but small arcs (for now anyway)

I found a nother dumped microwave oven so I decided to harvest it for the transformer and this one is huge! (well about twice the size of a regular MOT) unfortunately I can't get much in the way of big arcs from it, maybe in the future I'll try running it un-ballasted and see what I get, I just don't want to fry it.

Yeah, I know an accident @almost@ happened, so blame me if you want. I haven't been sleeping too well lately and maybe I should have slept better before I did this. (it's not neighbors, but learning flash is keeping me up).

Plus why does my 2 button no longer make the " symbol when I press shift? For some weird reason the ' button does that now.

Finnally, sorry about the crappy edit, I did have a MUCH better edit of this but the stupid computer decided to re-boot while the video was exporting, and as I didn't save it I lost everything and I simply couldn't be arsed to go though all that again.

Is it just me, or the sound a bit weird?

Also the Aspect Ratio is a bit odd.

@KRC1023 Must be youtube screwing up again, I uploded this at 1280x720, so I don't know why it's done that.

[CoolDudeClem]

@Vintagesoundz14 I don't really have much to show right now, as fo the workbench 2.0, I've dropped the idea becuase my room is just too small.

Extremely dangerous! I too would have expected bigger arcs from that beast!
