Step one in our project is to mark up some of the acrylic sheet that we picked up. To do this we simply took the tube and scribed with a marker the inside of the tube. if you get marker on the acrylic sheet or tube its easily removed with a little rubbing alcohol. |
| |
Using a band or scroll saw cut around the outside of the black line you scribed. If you use a good course blade at a high speed it tends to not melt the acrylic and create a mess. If the cuts get a little uneven it’s ok. They don’t have to be perfect. |
|
Here are our 4 acrylic disks. You can see that I got a little sloppy with the cuts. This is ok as we will use some hot glue to assemble the ion wind generator and make it air tight. |
|
Next up is to take our disk and scribe on three of them the points for some holes. These will be 1/16th and 3/4" holes. So make sure your spacing is for the larger size. |
|
Using a 1/16th inch drill bit drill the holes into the first disk. It’s very important that you drill these holes straight. |
|
Using a 3/4th inch drill bit drill the holes into the first disk. Make sure your spacing is right so they don’t overlap. |
