	Is it possible? Why do you need to? don't bust out the salt or vinegar.. __________________ An inventor is like a magician. They never reveal how their tricks are done.

	if i am not wrong i think the pit should be of 2Ft X 2 Ft & 1.5 mtr.deep. with GI/Copper strip attached to the GT rod & there should be alternate layers of coal & salt till the top. the resistance will improve if you pour good amount of water in to the rod.
