Hi, have you ever heard about the mad man marcum Time Machine guy? He used a Jacob’s ladder. Have you ever thought about trying that out?

[@DubiousEngineering]

You haven't seen my Jacobs ladder experiment video then :-)

"Linguoer". She would have rewired that transformer, before breakfast 😂
Happy new year Howard 🙏 . Cheers and beers 🍺🍺

[@DubiousEngineering]

Good diagnosis.

[@DubiousEngineering]

I took the long path!! Totally missed the low voltage issue, but we got there in the end!!

[@DubiousEngineering]

Bit of a long trip!! Hope you skipped to the good parts!!! :-)

[@Everythings_Adjustable]

No Mate this one was interesting to me 👍

[@tazfaedodge_backup]

Why not take the switch as well?

[@DubiousEngineering]

Yeah, damn switch was glued in place - lots of glue! ... Need your address as you won the multimeter!

Prefer Oldskool 91 to 93 but the "spinback" transcends genres.
