Method<\/b><\/p>\n

Cut and unbend coat-hanger to give a single straight piece of wire slightly longer than the drinks bottle. File then end to a point.<\/p>\n

Clean out the bottles.<\/p>\n

On one of the bottles make a small hole in the middle of the base of the bottle so the coat-hanger can pass through cleanly. Make a slight indentation in the cap to this bottle to allow the sharpened end of the coat hanger to sit in the indentation.<\/p>\n

Cover the sides of the bottle with foil ensuring that there is a break in the foil on both sides. The foil should only cover the flat sides of the bottle, leave a 10mm gap between the end of the foil and the base of the bottle.<\/p>\n

Replace the bottle top and pass the wire through the base of the bottle to rest in the dent in the bottle top. Stick the wire down to a solid surface with the bluetack<\/p>\n

On the other two bottles coat the outside of the bottles completely with foil, again leave a 10mm gap between the bottom of the foil and the bottom of the bottle.<\/p>\n

Attach the wires to the two outer bottles pointing towards the inner bottle.<\/p>\n

Stand the two outer bottles near, but not touching centre bottle with the wires pointing to the sides of the inner bottle.<\/p>\n

Apply a high voltage to the outer two bottles.<\/p>\n
