Hello from North Idaho

Post by Donny Mott »

I have been wanting to build a fusor for a while now. I used to build high vacuum air samplers for years and unfortunately when I closed my business I let go the vacuum pumps and electropolishing setup. I did keep the tig welder, lathe and mill that I used for making the samplers. I have no high voltage experience so this will have a learning curve for sure.

Anyone from North Idaho or Eastern Washington on here?

This forum is for introductions and not questions. The new user forum is the one you want to ask questions in. In short, no this would not be a usable supply. we could discuss the reasons in the proper forum.

Ok. I was just giving an intro about me and what I had planned on using. No real questions. But I guess to much still. Sorry about that also.

You thanked him but still have not changed your username to comply.

So, in great detail, here we go...

----------
When you registered you clicked to accepted the terms given on the 1st registration page:
Fusor Forums - Registration

This contains the same as what is listed here:
Board index - Announcements - Announcements and Site Administration Topics
Fusor.Net Policies and Procedures
and specifically The Rules: #1

but you failed to do that. Please change your username to comply.

Changing your Username

The forum rules require you to use your full name as your username. Many people miss that and create an account with some tag name.
This forum does allow you to change your username. I just tried it and it seems to work for me.

Here's how:
  • Login to the board
  • click your current username in the upper-right of the main page and select User Control Panel from the pull-down
  • In the tabs at the top, select Profile
  • At the left column, select Edit account settings
  • Edit the Username: field to be your full name
  • Type your password in the Current password: field (near bottom of page)
  • Click Submit button at bottom
  • Note: After you change Username, the new name becomes what you use to login to the Forum. Your password should remain the same.
I also suggest adding a Location to your profile. It often helps to know generally where a member is in the world while responding to them. I have used my City and State, but if you are worried it could be more general -- just State, something like Central USA, just your Country is better than nothing.

Adding a Location
(Skip the first 3 steps if you are already in the Profile section from doing the Username update.)
  • Login to the board
  • click User Control Panel near the top of the main page
  • In the tabs at the top, select Profile
  • At the left column, select Edit profile
  • Edit the Location: field
  • Click Submit button at bottom
This Location information will appear in the right column, under your name, when you post.
