Thanks Ed!  It's the caps you sold me that are running this thing.  I'm
gonna stick a big bright yellow bumper sticker on my coil (does it really
have a bumper?) that says "Powered by Wingate."  :)

I'm thinking about drilling a hole through each of my stationary electrodes
and putting a cotter pin through just in case the set screw vibrates loose,
or if I forget to lock it down again, then the electrode _can't_ move in too
far.
