Hi,
They sell a lot of old time "oil lamp" globes that are open at the 
base.  Sort of like in the old western movies.  The fancy ones get 
pretty long.  Check out a "fancy lighting" place's catalog and many 
home center stores have an amazing array of oil lamp glass 
too...  Very heat resistance and pretty darn cheap!!!
Cheers,
        Terry

Hello, Group,
While working on my Coil I am building a Jacobs ladder ( need a HV fix :)
My question is ... I have located some large O.D. Glass Vases to use 
for a tube for the electrodes. But I want to cut the bottom off of 
the vase, can anyone give advice on doing this to a round object. As 
last resort I could drill holes for the electrodes. Or use an 
acrylic tube but how likely would this material be to melt?
