I got a used 1500 watt microwave oven. What cool projects can I make with the high voltage power supply and magnetron?

Rewind that transformer with a huge secondary (Like 2000 turns) and a center-tapped 10-turn primary coil.
Drive it with a ZVS, and get some 6" burning arcs from it!

Rectify it, and you could start a high power tesla coil project that would run at extra high frequencies!
