Rob,
am not looking to make a replica.

I can see why someone might want to make a replica, but that was not my
aim. I was not intending making the batteries either, but again I can see
why one would want to do that. I just intended running it from a capacitor
I had previously charged up to a couple of kV with a PSU.

Hence I don’t have a problem using 21st century materials. It was just
going to be a challenge at our amateur radio club to make something broadly
similar.
