Using high power IGBT bricks to 
push hundreds of amps of current through a metal workpiece via electrical induction from a resonant LC circuit to cause contactless heating by IIR losses. My AP physics C E&M midyear project!

Digital Salinometer
This device was built for a regional science team event using an opamp oscillator circuit with amplitude proportional to the conductivity (which in turn is proportional to the salinity) of a sample of water. The output is rectified and filtered, diode drop hidden by another opamp, to produce a DC voltage that is analyzed by an ICL7107 sample&hold/ADC/Binary to 7 Segment chip.
The design is a derivative of this person’s work.
Fusor I
A prototype fusor made with a 2 stage HVAC pump, a vacuum filtration flask, phosphors from a fluorescent tube, and some hardware from home depot.
No fusion yet, but the pump pulls a strong enough vacuum for a focused electron beam that excites the phosphors in the tube to light up.
2 Coil Tesla Coil (SGTC III)
Built in only 2 days with junk found around MITERS and my DRSSTC’s primary/secondary, this coil produces up to 2 – 3 foot streamers and ground arcs!
With a few improvements like a rotary gap instead of an unquenched static gap and a slightly larger secondary, this coil could probably push another 1 – 2 feet of spark length.
List of Currently Populated Pages
I finally got around to creating a website for my projects yesterday and I’m working on uploading documentation of my work. Unfortunately, most of my pages are still empty, but one or two are starting to come to life. Here is an up to date list so that it’s easier to find them:
