    If you ever want to revisit this episode. All you have to do is take apart a tube tv, grab the suction cup off the back of the glass and use the wire coming from the tube to create much more arcs. I did it when I was younger and it was awesome. I melted alot of stuff and set things on fire in my bedroom lol. I sat it on a broken drawer, and just used the whole board with the transformer still on it, to create cool arcs and they sounded awesome.
