This is how a Coilgun works!

50 Volts, 3 Amps! That coil is going to get very hot very quickly!

Make a loop of coils and you get a small hadron collider XD

[NiksSofa]

What rare breed is this??
A youtube Short that I enjoied to watch?
That's definitely a first.

I love how he failed to mention that this isn't bare wire. How many people wrapped naked wire around pvc and couldn't make a coil?
The wire is actually magnet wire that has a thin layer of insulation so that the coils can't touch each other.

Now take a serious lenght of pvc, several seperate coils with relays, charge them at the right time...bolt goes beyond horizon..now that would make a real coil/railgun...

I did this for a collage project. Instead of figuring out when to turn it off, I just connected it to a huge capacitor and it worked fine. Just that it would take some time to charge.

When your power supply is current limited at 3 amps

Its kinda funny how many people confuse coil gun for rail gun. Speaking of which... make a rail gun next.

bro used the phantom forces coil gun icon no way

Actually pretty cool. Keep it up mate!

There recently was a story where a guy turned into a coil gun because he thought an unmentionable up his butt was non-metal and he went into an MRI. Not sure if it's a true story but that too was an application of this principle. A weird one for sure.

Ding dong!

[doc_ineeda_win]

love it now 3d print and build it next woot

[LX]

A normaly closed reed switch in the middle of coil would make this work quite easy.

[khaliltheth]

Now i can make my self home-made electric bullet gun

[deceptonn]

I know you guys won't understand what I'm saying, but holy shit is that the coilgun from Phantom Forces?

I, and i can not stress this enough, LOVE THIS CHANNEL!

[matthewboyd]

Coil guns currently have a speed limit because the magnetic field doesn't dampen quick enough

There is a suspension system that uses magnets to thicken suspension fluid to go from soft to hard suspension suddenly, It had the same problem and they solved it by having counter rotating magnetic fields four to be exact.

This could potentially fix that limit and make high velocity coil guns

This is how solenoids work too, but a bit simpler
