Model 10 Tesla Coil used to trigger man-made lightning across six foot gap. This discharge
is over 10KA at less than 5 usecs. rise time, producing a large electromagnetic pulse
(emp). Storage capacitor used is rated at 60 KVDC, 75 Joules.
From left to right, Richard Aurandt, Ken Strickfadden and Bill Wysock, circa 1975, in
Ken's backyard shown is one of the original special effects Jacob's ladders used in the
production of "The Bride of Frankenstein".

subsequently donated to Ohio State University's high voltage lab in 1995, where it is in
use today.)
