I just built a grassinator.

Tony, Sorry, I'm sort of dumb with electrics. Can you make me a diagram and post it. Like what to set my volt meter on, where the red and black probes go?? Thanks, Jim CCRR:unsure:

Jim

Here's the link the the original file John C post on building the grassenator and if you scroll down a bit there is a great diagram..

There is also a new update on using a different power source, might be worth looking at jeff

Jeff, I'm using that new one. I think I have a problem with the wallwort, the on/off switch or the panel mount jack. The wiring is done correctly so it has to be one of the components. Which one I haven't a clue. Cheers, Jim CCRR:(

Jim, great work there ! Static grass is really neat.

John, Nice update on the kit. The mom-shorting barrel connectors are the only way to go. But a suggestion for all: either tie the cord around the body or mount a 'snap in' cable restraint to keep the power from coming out while you dragging the cord around. Not likely, but . . .

John, have you thought of an adapter using a few inches of 3/4 or 1/2 PVC to get a locally concentrated area, like the newer Noch's have ?

Chris Tatarian of the BAZ BoyZ made up some laser cut adapters for his, cuts down on the plastic grinding.

Now where is that ion generator I found several years ago ??? Should build one for a gift on my Oslo Zmod trip.
