How to make a boiler out of ordinary shaving blades

The boiler is an indispensable everyday household item. But if in modern life we ​​often use other devices for boiling water, for people who do not have an electric kettle on hand, the unit of two razor blades will simply become irreplaceable.

Instructions for creating

Many people got acquainted with this type of equipment when they served in the ranks of the Soviet army or in any other conditions where it was necessary to boil water, but there was no suitable device for these purposes.

The following items are required to create a boiler:

1. 2 blades.
2. Matches
3. Two-core wire.

In order to make such a boiling unit, it is necessary to wind the wires to the two heating elements (in this case, the blades). They should not touch each other, therefore it is necessary to establish between them match struts. Next, the finished device can only be dipped in water and bring it to the point until it starts to boil.

Principle of operation

In fact, the principle of operation is quite simple. The main condition for the operation of this electrode boiler (which is exactly what it is called) is a heated body, in this case water. The fluid that is between the two electrodes must have electrical conductivity. That is why homemade boiling water is not able to boil distilled water, as there are no conditions suitable for electrical conductivity. This is due to the fact that a conductor is necessarily required for the flow of an electrical impulse. That is why distilled water is very often used as an experiment between the plates.

In order to avoid an electrical circuit, it is necessary to insert several wooden struts between the two blades, which must then be fixed with threads. Yes, it is quite a painstaking process, but the result is worth it.

Safety first

In order for your homemade boiler to perform its direct duties, and not burned all the wiring in the power grid, you must follow some rules:

• Never leave the device turned on unattended.
• Due to the fact that the blades themselves and some of the wires remain bare, you need to be as careful as possible, because any careless movement can lead to electric shock. Do not touch the water, bare parts and boil water in a metal dish, as this can be life threatening.
• The quality of water boiled in this way is very doubtful. This is due to the fact that in the process a large amount of metals gets into it.

Separately, it is worth noting that the power of such a boiler directly depends on the distance between the blades and the salinity of the water.

Caution - danger!

In fact, this design of the boiler is much great dangerthan it seems at first glance. For example, if you assemble an assembly of latches for a window, such a construction, lowered into the water, will bring it to a boil in just a minute and a half, but in this case the light will flash throughout the house, and sparks can beat the water.

It is very simple to make it, but at the same time it is worth paying attention to the energy intensity of such a unit - it is impressive. In no case should not lower the device in salt water.In this case, an explosion may occur, after which, in addition to splashed out water, it will also knock out traffic jams. And if you pour salt in boiling water, the consequences will be much more dangerous.

Finally I would like to say that in any possible case it is better to abandon the use of a double-blade boiler. Even if you make it by all the rules there will always be a danger. Be careful and try once again not to endanger your health and the health of your loved ones.
