How to Make & Do Cool Things With Plasma Orbs

Business Card Trick

• 1). Turn on the plasma orb and place a copper coin, such as a quarter (which is about 92 percent copper), on the top of the glass case. On top of this, place any business card.
  
  
• 2). Take the paperclip and bend the outer end of it downwards, forming a 90-degree angle.
  
  
• 3). Hold the paperclip over the business card where it is over the quarter. Keep it at a distance of an 1/8-1/4 inch. You should see a scintillating arc of electricity between the coin and the end of the paperclip, slowly burning a hole in the middle of the business card between them.
