So the foil and dielectric layers move in spirals expanding outward, or there are independent "rings" of foil, dielectric, foil, dielectric, and so forth, and you tie all the foil layers together? Sorry, I'm a visual person, so I'm trying to imagine this while waiting for work uniforms to finish going through the laundry. -K _______________________________________________ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/
