Dingo: I was looking at the coil last night and think your reference to: “i wanna know what is that silver kind of thing with two plugs on one side?” I assume you are referring to the bleeder resistors on top of the red caps? These are Tiger resistors made for HV. I want to ensure the caps are discharged when not used for safety.


Perhaps he meant the little silver heatsinks on top of the tubes.

They're the microwave oven capacitors that he's painted
red in the assembled unit.

Plexisaurus Tubezilla is looking incredible, a lot of work involved there Doctor!
I see you are running out of room in your garage for these beasts,
You may need to build your own HV workshop!! :)
If this thing runs like other VTTCs, then will you need a 30 foot ceiling space to
run it in to accommodate the swords?!?
Love your work.

Lack of ceiling space? Its in a GARAGE! Just open the doors and wheel it outside! That oughta scare away any dogwalkers, hehe.

Then again they won't appreciate it as much as we do.
