How to make Plasterite
Making plasterite is simple, anybody can do it. There are 2 essential ingredients, the Plaster of Paris and Pink salt crystals.
You will need a mold, if you are making a sky cleaner then a cone is the best shape, a native British traffic cone is ideal if one is available to borrow for a couple of days. You need to get a bag of plaster of paris, and mix the correct amount for your mold, add pink salt crystals to the mix last of all, just before you pour stir them in then fill your mold. Leave to dry for a couple of days before you take it out the mold. When removed still leave it somewhere warm because it is very important that the pink crystals are dry. When it is bone dry, seal it with varnish or resin and paint beautifully.
How does it work?
Like Quartz, PINK SALT crystals are PIEZO-ELECTRIC that means they generate electricity when pressure is applied to them, just like the spark in kitchen or cigarette lighter. The energy is converted from PRESSURE to ELECTRICITY.
Pink salt is has better piezo properties than quartz but it is too fragile to use in electronics.
When an electric motor is turned it becomes a generator and a speaker becomes a microphone and an L.E.D will generate a current when light shines on it. This is when the conversion is reversed and these devices are called transducers.
So when E.M.F’s. pass through a quartz or pink salt crystal the crystal will do the reverse by generating an opposite signal which will have a local calming effect
