[TCML] 2009 Tesla Fest & Midwest Inventor's Faire



Tesla Fest 2009 is now combing with the Midwest Inventor's Faire (similar to
a Maker Faire only with serious inventors), and the 2009 Midwest Ham Fest.
Time: 11 AM to 11 PM.  Setup for exhibitors and amateur radio operators at
10 AM.  Large grounds with over 20 acres for outdoor displays.  Two large
pole barms for indoor displays.

Tesla Fest and Inventor's Faire 2009 is scheduled on Aug. 29, 2009.  This
event will be held at the Baraboo / Sauk County Fairgrounds and has two
large buildings to house the event in case of rain.  We have been very lucky
the past 5 years and never been rained out, but moving it indoors will save
us headaches some year.

Available power is 120 / 220 Volts at 150 Amperes continuous.

I plan on displaying a "singing" DRSSTC, a 1 million Volt classic RSG coil,
a 40 kVA Climbing Arc, a 800 kV Marx Impulse Generator, a 750 kV Van de
Graaff Generator, Electromagnetic Soda Can Crusher, Cage of Death, Wheel of
Death, Bridge of fire, and various other machines.

Location is East side of Baraboo, Wisconsin, on Hwy 33 --- only 1 block into
town and on south side of Hwy 33.  195 miles NW of Chicago, IL, then 10
miles West on Hwy 33 into Baraboo.  For those flying in, plan on Madison, WI
(identifier MSN).  Usually thru Minneapolis (Northwest) or Chicago
(Northwest, United, American,or Delta)

Two nearby local hotels include the Spinning Wheel Motor and the Thunderbird
Inn.  Both are located directly across street from the fairgrounds.  Also
two restruants, the 4 Star and the Log Cabin are located directly across the
street.  Food will also be available on the fairgrounds.

This year we ask anyone presenting a display to contact us via email (
resonance@xxxxxxxxxxxx) to advise of your intent such that we may tape off a
display area suited to your machine.  Please advise on or before August 10,
2009.

Tesla coils both large and small welcome.  Also welcome is any type of HV
machine such as Marx Generators, Van de Graaff Generators, Cockcroft-Walton
Voltage multipliers, etc.  No X-ray machines or lasers allowed.

Midwest Inventors from MN, WI, IL, IN, and IA will be displaying some
interesting contraptions including a large roaming robot.

Hope to see you in August.
