Back in 1984, talked to John and ordered his famous Tesla Switch plans and built same! See: attached

https://teslauniverse.com/nikola-tesla/articles/12-million-volts There was a very sad conclusion to all of Golka's research for I had to scrap down all of this Leadville Project which by many weird trun of events wound up on my Research farm in two 50 ft. semi trailers.

George, Interesting story about mercury as experienced by my friend Nick Holden, Waco,TX, who was manufacturing the C-60 carbon and higher Fullerines. See:
https://www.chron.com/local/history/medical-science/article/Discovery-of-Buckyballs-a-Nobel-effort-by-7939221.php
Nick developed a close relationship with Prof. Smalley (RIP) and went into the C-60 production. I built a RF plasma system using a 5KW RF power supply which I got from Texas Instruemnts salvage sales. http://www.comdel.com/high-frequency-rf-power-supplies Made the higher fullerines and Bucky fibers. Nick went on an expedition down into the South West New Mexico to the old abandoned mercury mines, Mercury, NM, which produced mercury needed for the WWII was effort. A full day trek via 4 wheelers with a Mexican guide brought them to an old mine. When walking inside of mine, Nick asked the Mexican why it felt like they were walking on a water bed?? The Mexican said , brush the dust off and see that you are walking on a pool of mercury. At the time mercury was selling for $26/# so it would have taken a big 4 wheel drive vehicle to go out and retrieve enough mercury to make it worth while to explore. Lots of mercury that the Environmental people frown on.

Yep! George, I had boxes of plunge mercury switches and ignatrons that no one wanted because of the pools of mercury inside. I parted out and saved several hundred pounds of mercury which I gave to Bert and Phil so they could build their anti-gravity vehicle. Lol

Norm,
Yes mate, I did a lot of stripping out of stuff in industrial setups and I kept all the mercury. I have a good sized bottle of it but have not used it yet after 53 years of it sitting in a safe place in my workshop. But I always said to myself that I would find a use for that in the future. Just being a hoarder I guess.

In case you were wondering where this is going, It is very simple. In July 1946, I was just in Grammar School and remember sitting in my Dads car and listening to the Operations Crossroads atom bomb being dropped from a B-29 onto Bikini Atoll . see

The radio was a Blaupunkt AS 5 medium wave and longwave radio which allow us to listen to a live broadcast of test via short wave from the Pacific. Sparked my interest in how these radios worked, thus I tore into one to find the vibrator tube which made the HVDC plate voltage needed in the vacuum tube receiver. This was the spark that had me enroll into DeVry Electronics (1953) and join the Ham Club in High School.

I had though about using this antiquated technology to make a bullet proof switch to enable a sustained pulse train to drive the ferroresonance phenomenon. You know how a tinkerers mind works. Hay, look, they are still available. https://www.tubesandmore.com/products/vibrator-6-volt-4-pin-negative-ground
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignitron Someone asked me about switching the 5 HP Neutral Spike experiment with mercury wetted switches. I had plenty of them for we were wrecking down a lot of industrial equipment.
Just some thought food. Lol Norm
