Redboy's fuse-popping machine

[kirk57]

Hey, that's pretty good, Ed!

But, no...

Betcha nobody thought of this:

cool project, but that carved trunk is really a work of art!

I'm guessing he keeps the flux capacitors and the Mr. Fusion in the trunk. :yes:

 

[fulljam]

perhaps,a larger diameter hook-up wire?

While remote, did you by chance check to see if the fault might not be the big caps in the power supply? polarity correct? Or maybe some missing isolation hardware on rectifiers? Just some idle thoughts.

Whoops! Thanks for the suggestions, fellas - I should have made a point to say that I sorted things out!

I lifted the diodes off the aluminum piece they were mounted to and isolated them with insulating kit. The power supply now works perfectly and has been supplying pure, clean DC to my new speakers.

Check 'em out! My Feastrex thread is over here:
