Yesterday I completed my construction of the SSG, and the moment was there to give it a try. The model worked right from the start, so I jumped with joy !
I have the technical insight of a snail, but after reading and rereading and carefully following the instructions, I managed the very first time.
Parts I used:
- coil wire #20 (to + of battery)
- coil wire #25
- about 600 parallel coin windings
- coin length 2 1/2 "
- 2 weak iron bars and some galvanised wire as coin rods
- tranosistor 2N3055
- resistor 47 Ohm
- diode 1N4007
- 12V lead acid battery (small 9V battery also worked)

Made a small film with my camera:
