Copper and wire magnet

Recommended Posts

I am trying to build a basic device using the copper and wire set up but I want to attach a handle which hooks up to the device. I am trying to build a type of engine. Now if the rod(Handle) is hooked up directly to the main source of energy(The Nail) than what material should I use to make you able to hold it? I was thinking of something that wont conduct the electricity or maybe covering it in something none conductive like Rubber. Any ideas? This is for personal use.. Not school project. I trying build something.

Extra isolation from the electricity is always good but if you insulate the coil and metal core they can get burning hot.

 

A better description of what you are building and maybe a picture of the device can probably spur more helpful ideas.

I am trying to create a magnetic system that creates a light magnetic charge.
