how to make a simple layden jar

A layden jar is essentially a capacitor for static electricity.Simply done you just need an insulating vessel with aluminum foil on the inside with a wire on it to act as a collecting brush.to charge just rub a balloon or pvc over the "brush" once charged you can discharge by touching something grounded to the brush.It is very simple.I will put some pics to help illustrate.
