Actually you can make your own EDM machine for demo purposes
with about 20 bucks worth of parts from Radio Shack
A 60 w light bulb, a diode rectifier, and an eltrolytic capacitor
clip one lead on a pc of aluminum in isulated container of
a dielectric liquid (kerosine works quite well)
on your drill press or mill and use a brass tube as an elctrode
(square tube is even mor impressive) - Vance

You got plans Vance ?
