Some spade connectors and possibly a relay socket.

More recently, the design was tossed around by on an Old Marine Engine forum. That's why the basic design for the buzz coil is lifted from the ignition system of antique engines, like the ones in a Model T Ford. In the case of an automotive ignition coil, we're talking about very high voltage. That collapsing magnetic field induces a voltage in the secondary winding of the transformer. Step 3: My Schematic (cheap and Easy) this is my schematic its easy, but it, with my power source, only. It is a good driver for making big, hot sparks (not to be confused with arcs). This is how my schematic works: heres is a schematic that shows what the capacitor does. So I built a buzz coil, a project derived from the ignition on a Model T. Both of these things made clear to me that I needed a good source of high-voltage sparks. I've also had problems recently with pilot flames blowing out in some of our larger blow-something-flammable-through-something-on-fire projects. To understand the buzz coil, the key point is that a changing current generates a collapsing magnetic field in a transformer. The basic transformer theory is laid out in my previous posts about and. So I built a buzz coil, a project derived from the ignition on a Model T that you can toss together to satisfy all your sparking needs with a just a few common automotive parts. I've always thought it would be funny to build scale-size exploding grain silos for a model train layout.
