Midwest Teslathon

Those inbound for our Wisconsin Cheesehead Teslathon may wish to 
bring a pickup truck or van.  I'm cleaning out the back room and I 
have wound coils, lots of coilforms, potential xmfrs, pole xmfrs, 
some caps, variacs, and a host of HV power supplies, etd.  I'm 
selling it very cheap at the swap meet table so hopefully you will 
find lots of bargains to haul home --- some rather large 
pieces.  Swap starts at 1 PM.

At present we are constructing the safety mesh headpiece for the Mr. 
Electricico / Captain Zeus suit.  We hope to fire it up for the first 
time on Thursday night and will send Terry some photos to post in his 
archives for inspection.  Our 1 MEV Van de Graaff will get it's first 
workout on Tuesday evening, and Big Bruiser just needs a new Ammeter 
for the higher current we intend to run it at -- 220 VAC at 125 
Amps!   It's toroid is 40 inch cross section x 10 ft. diameter so it 
should generate some awesome sparks to our Cage of Death (credit to 
Ed for the new name for a Faraday cage).

Bring your small and large coils and lots of parts to swap and we 
should have a lot of fun.

I regret being unable to attend Ed's event as my health is still poor 
--- they removed my gall bladder a few weeks ago so I'm very weak.

Location is E11870 Shadylane Rd.  Exit Hwy 12 east of I90/94 (exit# 
92).  East (actually south) 3 miles and then east on Shadylane Rd. for 3 miles.
