Make an EMP? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Is this even possible for a "home project"? I'm bored and like to make things. Was tooling around and from what I've seen its possible. With a low yeild it burns out the wireing way too fast for anything but a "funny" testing.

Just wondering.. in now way would i harm anyone in this or cause harm... just was given a challenge from the less .. well the red neck hicks at work ... and i hate being thought of as a fool.

don't you just hate the male ego?

Neal Stephenson explains this pretty well in "Cryptonomicon" as a method of shutting down all the computers in an N-block radius during an NSA raid.

You should read it if you haven't already.

I would check out the legality of something like this. You may be in for trouble and as they say, ignorance of the law is no excuse.

Once committed to fight, Cut. Everything else is secondary. Cut. That is your duty, your purpose, your hunger. There is no rule more important, no commitment that overrides that one. Cut. The lines are a portrayal of the dance. Cut from the void, not from bewilderment. Cut the enemy as quickly and directly as possible. Cut with certainty. Cut decisively, resoultely. Cut into his strength. Flow through the gaps in his guard. Cut him. Cut him down utterly. Don't allow him a breath. Crush him. Cut him without mercy to the depth of his spirit. It is the balance to life: death. It is the dance with death. It is the law a war wizard lives by, or he dies.
