Engineering YouTuber Ian Charnas builds a real-life Thor Hammer (and you can win it!) @reinventedmag
There’s something special about those cosplayers who go the extra mile. Or in this case, the extra 400,000 volts!! Engineering YouTuber Ian Charnas did a cosplay with real lightning provided by twin musical tesla coils. His video includes a high-voltage cover of Thor’s favorite Led Zeppelin song that is sure to be a real treat for Marvel fans everywhere.
You can get this unique hammer!
He built his custom Thor hammer using 3D printing and metal-plating, and is raffling off the lightning-struck hammer to help Reinvented Magazine (remember when they featured Ladyada on the cover of their second issue?) inspire young women to stay involved in science and engineering.
