Orgone & Rodin Builds

BOMs, wiring (Möbius, Caduceus, Rodin), resin/crystal mixes, and low-power energizing protocols.

Overview & Scope

Context

This page collects practical notes for crafting experimental coils and cast pieces inspired by orgone lore and alternative winding geometries. We keep everything low-voltage, non-medical, and respectful of safety. Treat results as exploratory: log, compare, iterate.

Safety & Ethics

Read First

Use low voltage and current limiting. Avoid mains, RF power, and high voltage.
Resin work: ventilate, wear gloves & eye protection, follow manufacturer mix ratios by weight.
Keep coils cool; stop if anything smells hot. Pacemakers & sensitive devices: maintain distance or avoid use.
No medical claims. Share responsibly; respect neighbors’ EM environment and local rules.

Coil Topologies (Study & Practice)

Geometries

Möbius

A continuous loop with a half-twist before joining. Often wound as paired conductors carrying opposite currents to shape near-field distributions.

Caduceus

Two contra-wound helices on a common form. The crossing pattern can be used to experiment with coupling and cancellation ideas.

Rodin (Toroidal)

A torus winding that follows a distinctive path across the donut surface. Focus on even tension, clean insulation, and labeled start/finish leads.

Forms & Materials

PLA/ABS 3D prints, foam rings, wood, or PVC. Non-metallic forms reduce eddy effects; secure with cloth tape or shellac before casting.

Bill of Materials (Starter Kit)

Checklist

Wire & Hardware

Magnet wire (AWG 22–28), copper foil tape, heat-shrink, banana leads, DC jack (2.1 mm), toggle switch (optional), zip ties, cloth tape.

Forms & Fillers

Toroid forms (3D printed or foam), acrylic discs, quartz chips, copper/bronze shavings (clean), mica flakes (optional).

Electronics (Low-Power)

Signal source (phone tone app, small function generator) → headphone amp or current-limited driver; USB 5 V supply; series resistor.

Resin & Safety

Epoxy or PU resin (low exotherm), accurate scale, cups/sticks, nitrile gloves, respirator/ventilation, mold release, silicone molds.

Test Gear

Multimeter (continuity, resistance), optional LCR meter (inductance), IR thermometer, notebook or spreadsheet.

Labeling

Masking tape, fine marker: label wind direction, start/finish, turns, date—future you will cheer.

Winding & Wiring Notes

Craft

Direction & Pairing

Decide clockwise/counterclockwise. For paired conductors (Möbius/Caduceus), keep strands parallel; note series vs. parallel connections on the label.

Tension & Insulation

Maintain even tension; avoid kinks. Protect sharp edges on the form; add a paper or Kapton layer to prevent enamel scrapes.

Continuity First

After each layer, test continuity and approximate resistance. Fix issues before you hide them under the next layer.

Pots & Enclosures

If casting, pre-fit the coil, plan wire exits, and seal any gaps to keep resin out of connectors and switch gear.

Resin & Crystal Mixes

Casting

Mix & Pour

Follow the manufacturer’s ratio by weight. Mix slowly to minimize bubbles; optional pressure/vacuum if you have the gear. Pour in thin lifts to limit heat.

Inclusions

Quartz chips near—but not scraping—windings; metal shavings lightly dispersed. Avoid fine dust; keep pathways for heat to escape.

Cure & Post-Cure

Let cure fully before energizing. If surfaces remain tacky, follow the brand’s post-cure guidance; never run coils in uncured resin.

Aesthetics

Mica/pigment for swirls, but go easy: opaque mixes make inspection harder. Keep labels visible or engrave the base.

Energizing Protocols (Low-Power)

Practice

Signal Levels

Start ultra-low: 0.2–1.0 Vpp audio into a series resistor (e.g., 100–220 Ω). Short sessions, observe temperature, increase only if cool and quiet.

Waveforms

Sine for cleanliness; slow sweeps (20–2,000 Hz). Pink noise trials for broad excitation. Keep logs for any perceived differences.

Duty & Rest

If using pulses, modest duty cycles (e.g., 10–30%). Always include rest periods. Comfort & caution > intensity.

Placement

Keep away from hard drives, credit cards, and medical implants. Do not place on skin; no therapeutic claims.

Bench Checks & Measurements

Verify

Baseline

Measure DC resistance and (if available) inductance; record ambient temperature. Re-check after casting.

Continuity & Shorts

Wiggle leads while checking continuity to catch intermittent faults before sealing.

Thermal Watch

During first energize, log temperature every 2–3 minutes. Any rise >10 °C above ambient: stop and revise.

EM Hygiene

Keep cables tidy, avoid ground loops, and test far from Wi-Fi routers to reduce confounds.

Logs & Templates

Repeatability

Build Sheet

Coil type, turns, wire gauge, direction, resistance, inductance, resin batch, cure time, dates, photos.

Session Log

Date/time, signal (waveform, Hz, Vpp), duration, placement, temperature notes, observations, next tweaks.

Glossary (Quick)

Reference

Vpp

Peak-to-peak voltage of an AC signal.

Series Resistor

A resistor placed in line to limit current and tame transients.

Inductance (L)

A coil’s tendency to resist changes in current; measured in henries.

Exotherm

Heat generated during resin cure; too much can warp parts or damage coils.

FAQ

Clarity

Can I power coils from the wall (mains) or RF amps?

Please don’t. This guide is intentionally low-power/low-voltage. Avoid mains and RF power for safety.

Which topology is ‘best’?

None universally. Try small, well-logged experiments. Let stability, temperature, and subjective notes guide iteration.

Can I embed large stones or metal chunks?

Keep inclusions modest and mechanically secure. Heavy pieces can shift during cure and stress the casting.

Is any of this medical?

No. This is educational and experimental craft. For health matters, consult qualified professionals.
