TIL: Fractal Burning

From Lawrence D'Oliveiro@21:1/5 to All on Mon Jun 3 02:11:23 2024

This woman electrocuted herself while operating a homemade
fractal-burning machine <https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/store-owner-christine-rowley-electrocuted-by-etching-machine-salvaged-after-christchurch-earthquake/WVNDJGAXXNBOTPACMWCIWP4ELE/>.

I didn’t even know what that was. Yes, it produces pretty patterns.
But it does that by applying at least 2,000 volts across exposed
electrolyte solution on the surface of the wood being etched. Any
contact with that can be deadly.
