-- Carefully remove the 'lead' from a wooden pencil that has been sharpened
to a very fine point. You will use this piece of 'lead' as the 'lightning rod' in
your working model of a lightning-protection system.
-- You need a source of very high voltage. This is nothing to play around with,
so I will give no instructions here. You'll have to look elsewhere for advice.
And when you get it, hold onto the person who shows you where to get a
high-voltage source. You'll need his supervision for every step, from there on.
-- You'll construct a circuit consisting of the high-voltage source, a large, blunt
conductor connected to one side of it, and your sharp pencil-lead connected to
the other side. There is no connection between the large, blunt conductor and
the pencil-lead.
When the blunt conductor is moved or waved anywhere in the neighborhood
of the pointy pencil-lead, a long spark will jump from somewhere on the body
of the blunt conductor to the tip of the pointy pencil-lead.
-- The large blunt conductor is the working model of a charged thundercloud.
-- The pointed pencil-lead is the working model of a lightning rod.
-- The long spark is a working model of a lightning discharge.
-- The 'snap' or 'crackle' you hear is a working model of a thunder-clap.
You can't do it from the instructions I've given here. That's intentional.
You need to do this with the help and under the supervision of somebody
who has done it before. Otherwise, there's a very good chance that you'll
hurt yourself or hurt somebody else. Lightning hurts, even if it's only a
working model.
