Currently I have a set of plans available that should give most people a decent description on how to build the EMEM Machine. These plans are designed for a quick and problem free build. There is no need to complicate your life further. In the very near future I hope to have a video available on building the EMEM Machine. If you are interested in purchasing the plans please use pay pal to send $21 to my e-mail address kopekt@yahoo.com
*indicates www.rifemachinebuilder.com has the parts in stock.
1. Three T03 sockets. $2.50 each.*
2. Two 12 volt 4 amp transformers. Price is seven $7 each.*
3. One Bridge Rectifier 35 amp. 400 p.i.v. Price is $4.50 for one.*
4. Two twelve volt auto coils from Sherco automotive in Margate Florida. Specify the coils from India when ordering from Sherco. Price of coils from Sherco about $14 each. The 12 volt Blue Bosch auto coils from J.C. Whitney or from an auto store that sells Bosch parts can also be used. Price of coils is $25 to $30 each.
5. One Darlington transistor in a T03 case. The part number is MJ11032. This can be ordered from American semi-conductor. Price will be $4 to $7.*
6. Heat sink for a Darlington transistor with a T03 case. Price $2.*
7. Inline fuse holder from Radio Shack. A 4 amp fuse is also needed. The size of the fuse is 5mm by 20mm. Price for both $6.*
8. On/Off toggle switch. Price $4.*
9. One six foot long BNC cable. Price is $6*
10. One 80mm twelve volt cooling fan. One fan guard for an 80mm fan is also needed. Price for both items is $7.*
11. One tube of heat sink compound. Price is $3.*
12. One copper pc board. Price is $5.*
13. One SG-10 signal generator from GME Technology. This can also be ordered from Electronix Express the Electronix Express part number is 01sg10. The price is $95 to $115. You will also need a 9 volt power supply for the computer. The cost of the 9 volt power supply is $6 to $16.
14. 8 feet of lamp cord this is found at most hardware stores. The price will be $3 to $5. A plug for the cord will also be needed, this is also found at most hardware stores. The cost for the plug is $2 to $4.*
15. About 2 feet of high voltage wire is also preferred. I recently purchased some 15k volt wire from Georgia surplus supply. The cost is $3 to $5 per foot.*
16. You will also need items like copper wire, and a soldering iron. I like using a butane torch when doing much of my soldering. Screws are also needed. You will also need a box to put the machine in. Plastic mesh to keep hands away from wires is also recommended. The plastic mesh can be found at many fabric and crafts stores.
17. The bulb for the machine is a must. I normally use the single bubble e-gas blend bulb from Barry Allred. It is filled with a mixture of gases like Argon, Xenon, Neon, and Helium. The cost of the bulb from Allred Neon is about $100. Bill Cheb also makes bulbs for the EMEM. Many people like his Phanotron Bulb. The cost of the Phanotron is about $250.
Total cost for in stock parts is $73.50 plus $10 shipping. *notes the in stock parts.
Total cost for all parts minus the small number of miscellaneous parts is $340 plus $20 shipping and handling. Note since some parts may not be in stock it could take time to send the all the parts.
Total cost for the machine guts minus the bulb and computer is $190 plus $20 shipping and handling. The machine guts come put together inside the box that is also included. Note since some parts may not be in stock it could take time before I could send the EMEM guts. Thanks for checking out Rife Machine Builder. Thanks!!
