reading!!!))


Hello,
    On my 900 watt coil I used metal name-plates for plaques and such in
order to space the copper pipes in my rq spark gap.  Some people at a local
hardware store came up with the idea when I asked for something 30 mils
thick.  To make the gap I stuck the metal inbetween the pipes and bolted
them in (with epoxy), taped them tight around the metal plate, and let the
epoxy harden.  Hope that helps.

                                                Bart
