Free circuit design diagrams neon sign6/20/2023 The process of etching the wood starts by brushing on a solution of some sort of electrolyte. I am guessing this is where the branching-tree-look that Lichtenberg Figures, and deltas, come from. The rest will go down a different path, very similar to the way water flows around obstacles. Some people are mistaken when they say that electricity “takes the path of least resistance.” They are mistaken because only most of the electricity will go down the path of least resistance. I believe this is because of the similarities between water and electricity. However, a few weeks after I was finished with the project, I did see a picture of the Mississippi Delta, and I thought the pattern was familiar. I wasn’t too familiar with Lichtenberg Figures themselves, as they weren’t mentioned in any of my engineering classes. Microwave transformers generate about 2000V AC, so all I had to do other than get the transformer out of the microwave was get the wiring set up. I decided to use a microwave transformer, since it was cheap and readily available. While idly browsing Instuctables, I found a neat project about using high voltage to burn wood into interesting “lichtenberg figures.” The source of high voltage could be anything, like a neon transformer, or a benchtop supply that could do 2000V+.
