Hi from Australia

Post by andrew_meachen »

HI Everyone,
I'm a broadcast engineer from Albury NSW, Australia. My main interest here is in vacuum and HV electronics as I blow glass and have been playing around with plasma tubes in my spare time of late, although I may build a fusor at some stage down the track.

I'm currently rebuilding my vacuum system with a small CVC diffusion pump (previously it just had an Edwards E2M5 with KF & Swagelok fittings). I've been reading the forums for some time now and thought I should at least say hi and thought I may be able to add something to the forum now and then.

Cheers,
Andrew

Andrew, Having a good vacuum system before beginning your work with a fusor is a very wise idea. It is a critical part of making a fusor work. Good luck.
