    I like how you can see the burn spot on his thumb where he's been arcing the tesla coil

    Okay this is driving me mad. Does my skin appear really red and sunburned to you viewers? When I uploaded to youtube, my skin tone was not that red.

    Just a thought ... you require 4 spacers for this project but 3 of them are just used for simple supports in the base.  These don't have to be nylon necessarily.  The only one that has to be nylon is the one you use to form the upper roller with the rubber band.  That one has to be nylon because of where nylon falls in the triboelectric series.  The nylon spacers linked in your materials list cost nearly $5 each.  You can use something much cheaper for the 3 supports for the round base.

    I just admire that fact that your constructions are so very neat and tidy... They don't just function well, they look beautiful...

    Heads up Plasmanauts! This DIY build will be available as a kit on Plasma Channel's new website. After receiving numerous requests, after several of my DIY videos, its about time I offer Kits. The kits are ways out, but on the horizon! Have begun building PlasmaChannelGlobal (name may change)
