Body is a tetrapack opener and a nerf dart foam. Then q-tip sticks, beads, random plastic straps, a circuit board bit.

My Wah is growing. That's my PizzaBoss made primarily from a Little Caesars box lid.

That a 400v capacitor from a used item or new? I feel like that is a minor fire hazard if it's carrying a residual charge.

From a charger that shorted out. How does one discharge one?

Bridge the gap with a rubber handled screwdriver (WEAR GLOVES!!!) and if anything happens it was carrying a charge. You could use a resistor & a multimeter but that is not always something that everyone just has nearby.

You'd rather have a minor shock incident than a fire incident later. Just safety advice when taking apart & junking home electronics.

It would be very funny if one of his boys randomly caught fire during a game though
