Ok, 20A acted like it wasnt doing anything now so I kicked the battery charger up the 55a-140a setting. I dont think the mower blade is big enough and I dont think the container is big enough either.

I guess I could use the rebar for the oil cap and mower on the intake til I get angle grinder to clean the angle iron.

I dont think I will EVER understand you DAVE, Why would you use the Rebar KNOWING that is 1 of the variables that was causing it NOT to work Previously? :shitsweak:

You have to test with KNOWN GOOD WORKING CONTACTS to be able to verify the charger still works.

Yea, I understand what you mean but I was going to use the rebar on the oil cap not the intake. I figured since the oil cap was small that rebar would work also. I have to see tomorrow when I try it with the old charger.

DUDE the size of the Part is NOT why it wasnt working with the intake its because the Rebar is NOT conducting electricity, Using it and posting about it will be worthless

I thought from what HRPS said that the size does matter to certain degree.

Looks like there's a lot of funk around the mower blade already. Probably ought to clean it off soon.

Yea the water is getting pretty dirty and rusty orange where the mower blade is.

After seeing your process here, and what mine did today after making the ring with a large steel mass, I am convinced, just like a woman, even though a woman will lie to you, Size definatley matters in this process.

Unbelievable. Dave, you are making progress, and it is a great sight. I am just amazed at how the size of the postive charged piece of metal makes such a difference between you and HR's projects here. Amperage doesn't mean **** if there isn't enough metal to take that current and spread it through the vortex. HR nailed the coffin shut with that "Halo" shaped conducter he made. The answer is right there. So make one of your own, and make it happen hoss. It also seems that if you take the approach to surround the test item with a positive energy field and focus the negative conductor at the center of the experiment, it makes every thing sync so nicely. Good job to both yinz!!! :High 5:

Yep, I'll agree totally, and yours was certainly beneficial too Dave. Its shows that the size of your metal does make a difference. Yours is working, cuz I can tell by the water, and I see some of the rust floating, so that says its working.
So how about this?? Do you by any chance have a thicker stick of rebar? Say about 4 or 5 ft long? You can use a cheater pipe slip over it make bends in it and make you at least an L out of it, and maybe even a U. The more sides you have surrounded, the better it will work. I was going to do a U today, then got this wild hair, I'm going all out, and this U fits a little tight in the tub, so if I bend the ends in, I'll have more room to adjust. Then when I got the pipe wrench and used it as a sharp bending tool, I realized, WTH, I'm gonna make complete loop and join it by the stem to clamp the positive too, and also make it a leg. I have full intent now that I know that works, I'm going to drill those holes and put 2 legs on my loop, so it'll be a 3 legged loop.

That surrounding loop conductor makes a huge difference! :High 5:
