A look at Maker Faire 2008, including the Western Warship Combat Club's 1/44 scale battleships, and False Profit Laboratories' PyroCardium fire sculpture.
Van de Graaff generators rely on a belt that generates static electricity via friction, and tend to have a round top. Tesla coils are more complicated but they need a torus shaped head to hold coils, so the one shown is a tesla coil. They had a pair of bigger ones inside the main building though.
Thanks for the videos on the faire. Being new in electronics and doing things for Halloween, its great to see the mechanical and electronic side of effects.
