Hi, I have a varsity project which requires me to build a simple transformer. I was just wondering if anyone had good ideas for a transformer core? Not much of a budget for this project so preferably something i can get from scrap metal etc..
I was thinking along the lines of just using a 8-10cm mild steel bolt or even washers (multiple washers insulated from each other to mimick a traditional transformer core). Is this a good idea?
Thanks
