To anyone thinking of trying fractal wood burning: 1: I do not recommend trying it. Fractal wood burning is extremely dangerous and it can kill you in an instant. 2: If your going to try it regardless of my warning not to, I made a video on fractal wood burning safety: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5bCk6SQa7uoedk Please watch this video and if you do end up trying it, follow all my steps in the video EXACTLY and please feel free to ask me any questions you have!!

Get informed, save a life.

[@SmallLittleMicky]

To an extent therein lies the problem, the getting hit for just a second - due to electric shock you are unable to let go so that second would most likely be full time until someone can SAFELY isolate you, by which time you will already long be toasted. If you are "lucky" enough to get hit for just a second (e.g. the shock was to luckily knock you to an isolated location) then you may well survive but that's unlikely as you typically loose full control of your body and freeze as you are electrocuted. Your brain and feelings still work though so you go through the horrid pain (both physical and emotional) right until the very end.

Be careful folks: Couple electrocuted to death making art hyped on TikTok, officials say. María Luisa Paúl, The Washington Post April 26, 2022. When investigators responded to an April 6 fire at a Wisconsin home, they were immediately stumped. The house in Marathon County, northwest of Green Bay, was badly burned and its owners were nowhere to be found. But once the blaze was extinguished, officers found two bodies in the garage - those of Tanya Rodriguez, 44, and James Carolfi, 52. Firefighters suspected foul play, and Marathon County sheriff's deputies started looking for clues to solve what they thought was a homicide case. Then, pathologists conducting the couple's autopsies proposed a theory that changed the course of the investigation: that Rodriguez and Carolfi had died after electrocution from fractal wood burning.

[@kirkmorrison6131]

The only way to even remotely do this is to build your kit with a Ground Fault Interrupter on the secondary side of the transformer (very expensive) as it has to be rated for the voltage. The next point is gloves, insulation and everything else needs to be rated over 2000 Volts AC. The AC matters as it Spikes well over 2000 volts. If you do this you need a large insulated table with no metal at all as you could get a sh9ok. 7 out of 10 people electrocuted in Fractal Woodburning are dead before they hit the floor due to heart damage. Those who survive have terrible damage to their hands or where they made contact. I work with High Village electronics and always always lock it out. I discharge all parts that might hold a charge. This is playing with more than lethal voltage and for those not trained and not knowing the dangers, you will die with your first error.

[@two-sense]

First, I agree with you. I would never do this the way it's shown in a YT vid. However, you could set up a perfectly safe way to do it by using a dead man's switch located in an adjacent room. Both rooms would be built to allow no possibility for current to pass between them. Closing the circuit could take place using a bluetooth signal with a relay, or something similar, to allow complete isolation. A monitoring system could provide for verification of complete discharge of all electrical energy before it was physically possible for the operator to approach the wood. You could actually automate the process, using some simple robotics, and make it not only safe, but at $200 a piece, you could make a pile of money at it. But I agree, not a great thing to set up in the corner of the garage for a little Sunday morning tinkering.

During the fractal wood burning process, if you touch the alligator clips, the metal, the wood or even the table if it’s a non conductive surface, the slightest brush of your leg or your hand onto it will get you killed instantly by the 2000 volts being generated. Please watch how to cook that’s video.
