love magic VCA white necklace do you want it? from loersertydass's blog
Mini Van De Graaf
until I came across this 3" metal M box, just crying out to be van cleef and arpels necklace copy charged up!
(It's only entered in the tool contest because of the Makita as motor, which is at best a stretch, I'm fully aware)
In keeping with the purest standards of junk craft, I refused to purchase anything for this project. But over time I was able to extract the following from my various hoards of trash:(The diagram I've posted is from that page) Metal M M Copper wire, solid
copper wire, stranded Big black rubber band: 1/2" wide, 6" extended 1" diameter PVC pipe (cut to a bit over 7")
Old PC power cable (for ground)
Roller 1:
1/4" dia. bolt; 2 1 4" long (toilet tank mounting copy Van Cleef & Arpels necklace hardware, if I recall correctly), nut
plastic "beads" from a jump rope (my daughter's jump rope had half a dozen of these left over after I shortened her rope)
Roller 2:
Wire hanger (welding rod, etc would work)
glass beads
Gorilla Glue Cordless Drill (I tried using some random motors, but none of them had enough torque to spin my low tech copy Van Cleef & Arpels necklace roller!)
NOTE: none of these measurements is exact, nor do they need to be; for instance I cut the PVC pipe to fit the rubber band I had. hacksaw
