Trying to build something big

Hello, I'm new to this list. A friend and myself want to build some sort of
electrical device for Physics class, and I thought maybe someone on this list
could help us. It's not for an assignment but we just want to see what we
can do, and I know our teacher would really appreciate this kind of interest.
I was thinking of something along the lines of a Telsa Coil, Van der Graaf
Generator, or plasma ball. But the thing is someone has already built a
Tesla Coil, and my teacher already has a Van der Graaf Generator. Does
anyone have any suggestions for a device along these lines? It doesn't need
to be something that makes big sparks, but something that would be really
interesting.
I've been searching for a few days now, and the only things I can find are
either too simple and directed at young kids, or incredibly complicated. I
would appreciate any help.
