Thats why I made it in a CAD program, duh. Here is a higher resolution that should be printable, you can have the file if you want
This is the main problem, we have nowhere near enough information to make anything useful. My drawings are just an attempt at getting the discussion started.
Intuitively, it seems like there is a possiblity to achieve harmonic resonance in a structure like this, but with background noise as the only input? Maybe if you print a hundred variations of it you will find some experimental results to point us in the right direction. Also if this is even close to the right design, what is the focus point? Where do you chop off the cone in the middle?
There are 3D-printable plastics that go to ~120C after being heat-treated afterwards, should suffice for experiments anyway. Pure water is easy to get. As for Chris' broken promises, the RSA thread has some real proof in the form of mathematical relationships even if we haven't broken it yet, this thread is just crazy people speculating (am still here for some reason).
There is no science I know of (banned, esoteric or otherwise) that would enable this.. thing… to boil water.. So right this is just a fucking art project for a fancy, expensive bowl of water - its best feature would be that it hopefully doesn't leak!
