Hi, I've missed some points because I stuck on the design right now. Last nite while watching videos, I built one of those shields. It did not work as I thought it would. So I went and looked at your pics but they do not help either. In some of your posts I see you saying something about a "stack of foil pages". That one threw me, so, would it be alright if I try and clarify the proceedure? I hope so...
1. Find a large hard cover book the size of a page of looseleaf paper or so.
2. Open the book and tape a piece of tin foil the same size as the page, with no overlap (don't want the foil pieces to touch and short each other out).
3. Attach a piece of tin foi, as above, to a number of (? 5 - 10?) consecutive pages.
4. Once you have this first stack, tape them all together into one "stack", so that they work as one combined page.
5. Skip about ten pages and repeat proceedures 3 and 4.
6. Continue this proceedure throughout the entire book.
7. When finished, the book should be a collage of alternating thick pages of layered tin foil, interspersed by loose, unaltered pages.
8. Edit to add this part: Remember to cover the spine of the book, on the outside with tin foil, wrapping around the front and the back of the book a few inches.
9. Place sheild in desired location, fan out pages.
10. Atunement can be achieved by changing the gap between the pages and the overall orientation of the book itself.
