My friend Nathan (not a list member) uses an OBIT to do the fractal wood 
burning.  OBITs are AC output.  If the piece of wood is on a concrete floor, 
you can use only one HV terminal and bring the wire close, once a carbon 
path is started, it keeps spreading.  It is neat, I may get a niece piece of 
wood and urethane the thing and stick it on my wall, they are certainly 
cheaper than Lichtenberg figures!
