My ghetto Jacob's Ladder got an upgrade - I had been using aluminum electrodes because they're lightweight. I had some round steel stock left over from part of the ebike build, so I hacked it in half and screwed it to the leads. The color is boring, but the ladder works really well. I may add a 2 megaohm starter resistor to make it more reliable and push the gap out a little further.

Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

What's it gonna cost me for you to keep quiet, Kalashnikov?
I have a slightly used barbecue you might be interested in - it's a bit "warm," if you get my drift, but otherwise, it's a verra nice.
