(belljar on my vacuum coating system)Welcome! These pages document my messings around with vacuum systems and high-voltage stuff. You'll notice that the layout is different from the main site, I'm going back to a "all the links on one page" layout to see how that works
The usual disclaimer: Vacuum systems can be dangerous because of an implosion risk, and high voltage systems you can (obviously) electrocute yourself with. So, if you decide to make something because you've read about it here and it destroys your garage, house, shed, car, cat, dog, horse, budgie and all living creatures within a 1 mile radius, DON'T BLAME ME!!!! There, told ya.
