It is a small world! I have been wondering the same thing. I do
not have a Wimshurst, I have a Dirod electrostatic generator
(similar) and am building a pumped VanDeGraff. I think the
BPS would be small, but at 100's of kvolts, even a small
capacitor would give a big joules of energy. Tuning looks
like a bummer.

I am also thinking about a VanDeGraff can crusher!
