Hello All,
	I'm planning on building a Flat spark gap using the following design:

_______________
|OOOOOOOOOO |
|_______________|

	Using this design, i'd have my actual copper tubes enclosed on the 
top, bottom, and sides. On the back side, i plan to put in a series of fans 
to blow into the apparatus to cool it off. The side plates ensure that 
airflow will go in one direction and flow throughout this apparatus. 
	Does anyone know if this design will work on the same or better level 
as the Cylindrical gaps? this design, though a little more costly, will be 
easier to build, and will be way easier to clean out.. airflow through it 
will also work out pretty well because like the cyclindrical design, the air 
has one way in and one way out.
thanks.
