@@nimoy007 Grounding is for devices that have a casing that can pass electricity. It is intended that if the device malfunctions and the normal 'neutral' path is broken then the casing could become energized and shock someone. However with the second 'ground' wire that energy will pass to the circuit breaker and trip it. In this situation the case is a non conductive material and grounding would only be relevant if there is a hinge or something that could get energized and be exposed. As it is the coverings seem more than sufficient to protect the user. The only thing it should have is its own circuit breaker specked to the thinnest Guage conductor as to not start a fire. Like if a string gets stuck it should self disconnect the circuit.

The first guy already mentioned how to make it safe: insulate it, but then again you want openness for letting the sound emerge properly from the piano. A middle ground could be: insulating anything directed at the player and make a spark box of sorts around the hammer section so the sparks would land on places that will never catch fire. Also regarding the glowing resistors, a different setup might be required to resolve that one.

The proper "electrician" for this piano is a high voltage electrical engineer, the same type that works / engineers high tension power lines and the switches for them. They deal with contacts that have to survive high voltage loads and switching on and off and will give you the best advice, but even they will have to think outside the box, because the gear they usually use is WAY too big to fit in that piano! As for bad ideas, sorry but in this genre, you have one upped me all the time so far, still I love seeing where you are coming from and where you are heading Mattias!
Theory: Mattias isn't making pianos for the sake of making pianos. He's trying to set up a home defense by ensuring that absolutely NOBODY will want to go to his house and review his pianos. I think he's pretty close.

It was actually really interesting. Electrical engineering, at least inplemented for pianos!
Electrician with industrial controls experience here. Have some ways you could make this much better / safer, however you'd basically have to start the build over to implement some of these ideas. 1) using the bare metal of electrified hammers and your piano strings in order to directly run the power circuit is actually, properly insane. It would be a far better solution to mount a small bracket that holds your conductor on the side / top / etc of your hammers which would make a connection with a 2nd bracket to the side of / behind the piano strings at the same time as the hammer lands. Using pieces of flexible metal that can slide up against eachother as the hammer moves forward / backward would be ideal, and these two changes would help keep your piano's sound much more normal and eliminate wear. It's also worth noting that the far more obvious (but admittedly far less fun) solution to this would have been just putting a low-pressure push button below each of your piano keys that completes the circuit when you hit the key. But again, way less fun. 2) Relays fired with low voltage. Right now it seems like you're running your circuit's load directly through the circuit connection. This is bad for *many* reasons. What you could do is have a power supply that produces a low voltage like 12v hooked up inside your piano which would be used for separate, "controls" circuitry. This 12v is what you would actually be running through the wires on your piano hammers. From there, the completed circuit would fire the coil of a relay which would then separately connect the higher voltage power to the capacitor in a MUCH safer manner. This plan would also massively reduce or eliminate the electrical arcs thrown around near (or at) your fragile piano strings due to the load drawn by a single relay being essentially nil and the 12v being far less dangerous / air-arc-ey in general. 3) install plexi-glass tubes over each of your individual capacitors. This will help contain the sparks thrown by the capacitors, limiting the amount of fires you start inside your piano. This would also make it way more visible which note is being played as it'll only light up a single pillar above the capacitor rather than "exploding" out everywhere. Hypothetically speaking, you could even run them out the top of your cover like an organ and thus be able to play the piano with all your exposed electrical parts safe from being touched. I doubt you wanna mess with this project anymore than you already have but I'm happy to answer questions about this or generally discuss it with you or others here =)

So I was thinking about a piano that shoots glitter... now I'm thinking about an organ that shoots glitter out the pipes!
There are a few ways to make this much safer. Add an isolation transformer before the rectifier (or back to back transformers to step down / step up - you can also adjust your output voltage this way too). Possibly a cheap ZVS circuit module could generate the high voltage from batteries and feed each capacitor via a resistor to the main bus - this removes the mains completely and makes the piano portable. Add a suitable input fuse (won’t cater for most shorts here but still worth having). Use bleed resistors on each capacitor. Use a glass panel or plastic panel which blocks UV (not sure how significant the UV component is compared to say a welding arc).

The electrician backing into the corner of the room tells you everything you need to know
So a few things to make it safe: 1. DECREASE the wire gauge -- just to be safe (14awg should be fine) 2. Tied ALL of the capacitors to a common neutral, and then add a SWITCH to "turn off" the sparks, which discharges the capacitors through a high current resistor -- and add a voltmeter to this neutral. 3. ADD a grommet to the cord coming in (and relocate near the bottom of the piano) 4. INSULATE the PCB onto a thermally safe material 5. Add a series of thermal sensors to check for overheating of the resistors and cut power to that key / group 6. Add an interlock cover OVER the top, where you CANNOT open the top unless you turn off the power (and then it discharges) 7. Add a brush and guide that will apply the necessary paste in an easy manner 8. Add a "timer" to detect if a key gets stuck, which will disable that key/group if the circuit is closed for too long (just disables the circuit to ground while charging capacitor) 9. Add a current meter on the outside, which will trip if continuous current is above a threshold for a certain time for the entire piano to ensure it won't short 10. Add a GFCI -- im not sure how this handles sparking devices? 11. Put the capacitors/resistor circuit away from the strings/hammers and add a few PC case fans to help keep the circuit cool. Then it should be pretty safe, all things considered (assuming you have ear+eye protection).
Some random piano ideas: - A piano that plays like another type of instrument, such as wind or percussion. (Like the guitar video) - Rube-Goldberg style piano to play each note - A piano that fires nerf dart/pellets either at the strings or they keys - A really tiny, but functional piano - A piano that can be controlled via computer and can play itself (I think you may already have this?) - would be cool to connect it to one of those floor pianos you play by jumping on/with your feet - Gaming piano with haptic feedback (such as the stool and keys vibrating - plus lots of RGB) - Just a really loud piano

Now we're waiting for you to call a plumber to fix the piano that is filled with water.
here's a piano idea: make a piano that, when you push a key, compresses a mini bellow which blows air through the corresponding note on a harmonica. You would probably need chromatic harmonica to get the notes you need, and then it's only 4 octaves, so you would probably have to only use the 48 middle keys on the piano.

A true string vibrato would be hard to implement. But a vibraphone like tremolo/vibrato would be possible, you just need a plate with periodic holes in it, that moves behind the strings. Would be kinda cool!

I am pretty sure there’s been some really weird attempts on this before on piano. But I’d have to do some digging to find it. But no attempt has been succesfull really. Thank you btw!
I've been watching (and enjoying) your content since the first one of your piano experiments came out and I would just like to say, you never fail to entertain. Every one of your videos is amazing and and I admire your creativity and problem solving skill. As a musician who wants to study engineering, you are such an inspiration.

Once again amazingly done! Bad Piano Idea: Cowbells or Bottles instead of strings or airtight piano filled with various gasses(like helium) to maybe change the sound. Also you could use this piano to make a pretty cool music video (maybe similar in style to this one kzread.info/dash/bejne/fGeXyZatdq_TZ6Q.html just with less light so you can see the sparks). Or you could try having two people play it at the same time with one person trying to be the "drums" and the other person trying to play a melody. Edit: also looking forward to the next video and pianos/guitars ya legend.

For anyone that sees this, buying land from established titles does as much as just legally changing your name to Lord. You do not gain any title of any sort as it is a chinese company selling land in such small quantities that it is unregisterable, meaning you actually do not own any land and therefore do not receive any real title.
I‘d like the idea of a infinite sustain piano, with magnetic coils (or reverse guitar pickups) instead of hammers. basically like a sustaniac or e-bow vibrating the piano strings. (That would also make a nice samplepack)

I'm surprised at the fellow wearing voltage gloves without the overglove. It didn't seem like he had the glove liners either. That's a pretty good way to end up with voltage safety equipment just as questionable as this piano.
Absolutely love the first electrician keeping WELL away from the piano after the initial look :D
Thanks for the Video, i find it nice that they not only came for this time bomb, but also gave good advice in handling that complete disregard to anything you learn about when the words "safety" And "electrical" come together...

Established titles are selling land they don't own. They tricked a lot of people. It's the same thing as buying a star. No one has rights to a star and established titles don't have rights to the land they're selling.

I’ve not exactly that. I recall some piano tech wanted me to exchange the soundboard to a steel plate to get som plate reverb😆 But that’s the closest
I still think you can Isolate the strings from the electrical loop by running a conductive probe above the hammer head and running a single wire above the strings. This way the spark happens higher up and not actually on the strings. It would save you on materials because you would only have one string that is getting worn and it would be easier to keep the piano in tune. You could technically move the “spark” completely out of the interior of the piano and into a more insulated plexiglass area above the piano to improve safety and make the sparks more visible

When you said you got an electrician my first thought was should have got an electronics technician, the engineer was close enough. Kind of cool seeing their differing responses. Having an associate degree in electronics, seeing the electrician's response/interaction was very humorous.
I still can't believe how well it works and how good the sparks look

What about a gun piano? Like, each key has a magazine that cycles through a blank round to set off the primer of for each time its played. Like theyre loaded up, press a key, POW, release, the key, drops the shell and arms it with a new one (idk just drop the empty ones on the floor)

you might have to come over to the US to build it...
To prevent the resistors from overheating when a hammer sticks, a PTC resettable fuse in series with each resistor would drop the current automatically. To reduce the tendency to stick, a 2 watt carbon resistor in series with each hammer would limit the current - you would have to experiment to find the optimal ohm value to choose between spark size and not sticking. Just do 1 hammer first - Start with 100 ohms, go up or down by a factor of 2 each step, depending on the results.
"Can electricity go backwards?" Considering the fact that the function of a diode is to limit current to one direction, I'd say yes, it can.
I love how they just end up having fun toying around with it xD
