Warning Notice: This document is intended for educational use only! The project described in this document uses
extremely high-voltage power-sources, and is intended for readers over 21 years of age who are experienced working with
dangerously high-voltages. If you are not a legal adult, or are not proficient working with dangerously high-voltages, do
not try to build this project without expert supervision. The author of this document is not responsible for any death,
injury, or property damage resulting from or relating to the procedures shown or devices described in this document.
Purpose of this Document: This document provides a step-by-step description of the methods and procedures
involved with building a prototype electrokinetic propulsion-device. If properly constructed, this device will generate
enough force to levitate itself from a resting surface.
Step 1: Obtain Required Materials
30-gauge enameled copper magnet-wire
Aluminum Foil
1 Tube “Super-Glue” or “Krazy-Glue” Brand cyanoacrylate adhesive
Sewing Thread
1 hobby knife
1 25,000+ volt DC Power supply
1 Scotch-Brand tape roll
NOTE : For more details, please see included ‘Required Materials’ document.
Step 2: Cut Balsa Support-Struts
Æ Cut the balsa-wood strips in half to create
2mm by 3mm strips. Cut these into two sets
balsa struts – 1 set of 3 struts 20 centimeters
in length, and a second set of 2 struts 11
centimeters in length.
Bevel the edges of each of the 20cm struts to
allow it to be glued later at an angle to the
11cm struts. The beveling should be about 30
degrees in slope, and remember to bevel both
ends on the same side of the balsa face.

Step 3: Assemble Balsa Struts
Æ Mark each of the 11cm struts at the top (to
help you remember which end is up) and
again at a mark 4cm up from the bottom.
Sparingly use super-glue to attach each of the
3 vertical 11cm struts to a 20cm horizontal
strut as shown in the picture.
In the picture, the beveled ends of the 20cm
struts have been glued at right angles at the
4cm mark on the vertical struts.
Step 4: Complete Chassis Assembly
Æ Similar to step 3, glue together the 3 pieces
of the Lifter frame using super-glue. Glue the
unconnected ends of the 20cm struts to the
other side of the 4cm mark that you created
on the vertical strut in Step 3.
Ensure that the ends of the Lifter line up as
shown in the picture.
Step 5: Cut Aluminum Foil Strip
Æ Cut a strip of aluminum foil 5cm wide and
approximately 1 meter in length. This foil
strip will be used to surround the bottom-part
of the Lifter.

Step 6: Fold Foil Around Chassis
Æ Put glue on the 20cm strip and hold it onto
the foil until it sets. Notice in the picture how
the foil is even with the bottom of the vertical
struts. If done correctly, you should have an
extra 1-centimeter of foil above the 20cm
balsa horizontal strut.
Roll the Lifter chassis down the length of the
foil, gluing for each side of the chassis as you
go.
You must have an extra 1cm lip above the
horizontal struts to reduce ion-leakage.
Step 7: Fold down Foil Edges
Æ Cut the corners around the top of the 1 cm
lip above the horizontal struts and fold the foil
over the top of the strut for each of the 3
Lifter sides.
Use a piece of Scotch-tape cut in half
lengthwise to hold the folded corners as close
to the inside of the foil as possible and reduce
leakage.
Step 8: Attach Ground Wire to Foil
Æ Poke a small hole through the foil skirt and
run the ground-wire through it as shown in
the picture. The hole should be behind the
strut so that the wire is supported by it.
Make sure to strip the ground-wire of its
enamel coating before you connect it. The
ground wire must have a section of bare-
copper to contact the foil in order to work.
Give yourself about 2 extra feet of wire off
the lifter to connect it to your power-supply’s
ground.

Step 9: Attach Corona Wire
Æ Approximately 4 cm up from the top of the
foil, or about 2cm from the very top of the
vertical support struts, run a length of magnet
wire around all three vertical struts.
Make sure to loop the wire around each of the
vertical struts at least once to ensure that it
stays in place, and when you come back to the
first vertical strut, tie the wire off so that the
corona wire runs around the entire frame of
the Lifter. After you have the corona-wire in
place, scrape some of the enamel off of the
wire.
Step 10: Finished Lifter
Æ If you have correctly followed the above
steps, you should have a Lifter prototype
identical to the one shown here.
Use the “Testing Guide” document to assist
you with testing the Lifter, and use the
“Troubleshooting” document if you encounter
problems while testing.
