Hi Marc,

I studied your pictures.  Nice workmanship! I have a
question.  Are the main gap electrodes axial with the
acrylic tube? I'm asking because you mentioned
quenching problems.  The gap might work better if the
air blast was at a right angle to the main gap axis so
the air could blow through it instead of around it. 
Did I see it wrong?
