DESCRIPTION:
From the wasps series [part 22]

The vacuum motor powered weed eater.

It works well although I had some issues.

1. The 3 Amp variac overheated.
after fitting the 10 Amp variac,
2. The vacuum motor overheated
3. I need a high speed camera.

Often I get comments about de-interlacing some video's. They play fine on our computers. Could be maybe because of 50 and 60 Hz power networks. With electrical arcs it is an issue sometimes.

The wasps get sliced or smashed up but you can hear them pop or see the splash in the right angle of the sunlight.

The motor runs at around 5 Ampères. The slice wire is 2.5 mm² copper 7 stranded wire.
