Hi,
oh, I started reading myself into the topic in November, but I had
several difficulties on the way. I am currently writing down my
experiences so far, I will create a new section for that on my website,
but it will take another two weeks or so.
I have not managed to create a glow lampe or something yet, but I am
confident that I will be able to do so in the next month. I work with
soda lime glass and a primitive soldering torch that you cal buy in any
hardware store, and I even managed to create simple pinch seals that are
vacuum tight. I have some Neon here in a pressure bottle, but I have
some vacuum problems in my setup. The pump is a two-stage rotary pump
that goes down to 5E-3 mbar, but I still need a needle valve to insert
the Neon gas into the tube and a proper tube connection.
If you count the "buts" in my sentences you can see that there is a lot
of stuff to figure out :-)
It is very exciting, but also quite time consuming. At the moment I am
building a better power supply with a little more juice; 300V and 10mA
are a little wimpy.

tried to make some util i read your comment on that video.

Nice pictures! I have a video somewhere around here with a broken
CD47
in a vacuum bell filled with 2%Ar98%Ne, the pressures are in the same
range (but only down to 3 Torr or so).
