The story
Turning the crank intermittently activates a high voltage arc on top of the characters head.
The weight of the jaw keeps the arc turned off when not in use.
Every element was found — scrap yards, second-hand stores, dumpsters — then cleaned, stripped, sorted and rebuilt. Found aluminum is TIG-welded and sanded seamless; nothing is cast. The electronics are salvaged from consumer devices, repaired and rewired so the piece does something when you touch it.
Parts list
Materials
Everything in this piece had a previous life. Nemo’s own inventory, in his words.
Equipment case, neon sign transformer, panel gauges, relay enclosure, ceramic insulators, velvet, garment studs, LEDs.
