Re: [TCML] aluminum for faraday suit ?



   Hi,
       Isn't aluminum a better conductor than steel ?  Since chain male was for stopping swords,  for our purpose would aluminum be lighter and more efficiant ?   Maybe  the rite T rated aluminum wire would be rigid after cold working to form the rings ?  Any thoughts ?

Hi,

this way to make a faraday suit, is not very good and not worth the time and money. I also own a faraday suit but in my case, only the "head part" is made in this way by hundreds of steel rings. It is very uncomfortable if the whole thing is made this way because of the imense weight of the thing.

Regards
Stefan

>> Visit http://www.teslamad.com/ and click on faraday suit under projects (for those of you new to the series)

>> Also the resources page is finally up, so for those of you who have been bugging me, yes I will start to accept files to put on the site and for everyone else who doesn't have a clue what im talking about, I'm offering archive space to the Tesla community for resources such as MMC design chart, etc. that'll be easier to access than digging through the TCML archives. So contact me if you have something that the rest of the coiling community could use (Counting on you vets). See the video on the resources page about this.
