Custom Destruction

When tasked to destroy 23 lbs. of gold at a live event, our team chose induction heating to boil the 2.4 liters of copper required for the task. The quote for the two heaters required for the project was $224,700 and could be delivered to us as early as the week after event was scheduled to take place. I was asked to make the heating system. After, hand weaving litz wire, making water-cooled flexible leads and repurposing a CNC chiller, we delivered a carnival game with a working foundry inside.
