In the article "UMRO: uranium-glass-marble-ring-oscillator (Uranium-glass-marble-ring-oscillator)" The master made a steampunk oscillator using uranium glass. In this homemade, another master, having studied the above material, decided to make a similar homemade product, but with different material.
Let's get acquainted with the words of the wizard.
“I have to pay tribute to Eon Junofor for giving a great idea. After reading about his project“ Uranus-glass-marble-ring-generator ”, I decided that I should try to do this with a few changes. I needed a way to make my own own marble, and I used the 2.25-inch glass Christmas decoration found at the local store. "

Step One: Epoxy
The craftsman secures the hollow glass ball with the neck up. It mixes epoxy with hardener. Adds fluorescent dye. First you need to add a little dye, stir and check, illuminating the intensity of the glow with a UV LED. Add colorant if necessary.
Step Two: Coils
Then the master winds nine coils of wire of different colors.
Step Three: Handset
LEDs will be inserted into the handset. The master cuts off nine metal tubes. Then he puts vinyl tubes on the tip of the metal tube.
Step Four: UV Tube Assembly
Installs LEDs in the tubes. The anode of the LED solders to the end of the coil. Checks the operation of the LED by the battery. Isolates the junction with a heat pipe.
Step Five: Install the Ball
The master uses an aluminum flange as a support. Secures the ball with silicone. Checks its glow.
Step Six: Installation
First, the master made a pattern of paper. Placed on paper parts marked holes. He made a ring from plastic according to the template.Mounted the details.
When the device was assembled, the master made the case. Secured it to the case. Installed batteries and a charge controller, decorative plates, a digital voltmeter.
A video demonstrating the operation of the device can be downloaded from the link below.
