Does your cell phone leak? how to make a jig

Post by stressedstudents »

Hello everyone,

does anyone know how to make a "jig' to hold your cell phone when trying to conduct and experiment about finding out if your cell phone radiation is bad for you?

If you do then please email back as soon as possible,

Thanks

Hello stressedstudents,

Jig is a generic term meaning a plate, box, or open frame for holding devices in fixed locations with respect to each other. It is used in many technical settings, so asking how to make a jig can't be answered without knowing the precise function for which it's intended.
I assume you're working on the project Does Your Cell Phone Leak? Measuring Cell Phone Radiation. The Experimental Procedure section of the project description has a whole section about Building the Jig.
That section describes the functional requirements for the jig in detail. No one at Science Budddies has an actual design for the jig. The idea is that you make a design that satisfies the requirements, and, ideally, uses material and tools at your disposal.

Good luck, WW
