Background discussion of TT`s Pyramid

[neptune]

@K4ZEP. Hi Ben . One thing that is holding back the development of this technology , is the limited time that TT has to answer builders questions . This is understandable no doubt , as the man has a business to run , and his own life to lead . It would seem that one of his problems is finding time to read through the main thread seeking out the questions that need answers . I have a proposal to put to you . I know you have to have a life as well , and if you decline , then that is understandable , and we shall not think any less of you .
What I am suggesting is , that as our "elected representative" ,  We put all of our questions directly to you . Then when you get to talk to TT , you have a list of say 10 questions to ask . If possible , all questions should be answerable by , Yes , No , or I dont know . Yes I know it is a lot to ask , but how do you feel about it ?

Hi Neptune,

Make up a list of 10 questions.  IF I know the answer, shoot, if I don't, I'll ask Thomas.  Yes he is a busy man.  I'm retired, except for
"Honeydoooos", I'm pretty free most of the time. 

Respectfully,

  One of the questions is: are the sides absolutely necessary, as his pyramid has no bottom as well as only three sides.  This is important for me to know, because if the sides are really necessary I will probably not be replicating the "reactor."
   Once anyone replicates this project to the same output as his, or better,  then we won't need to bother Thomas, with "thoughsands of questions". And then maybe he will be the one asking questions.
   I hope that he has the time to read this.

Answer to question #1.  Are the sides absolutely necessary.  Yes Absolutely!  It will work better with all 4 sides but as this is just a test vehicle, he uses the three sides so he can work on the interior.  Interesting to note, the output is better if it is in a clear area and after it is running, step back a few steps.  Output will improve.

OK Ben and thanks for that .I suggest that questions should be posted here and not on the main forum .My questions ;
1 In the original design the brass end plugs are hollow .If we make our own plugs , can the end that fits inside the tube be flat?
2 When we align the pyramid to the North , is it magnetic North or true North .
3 Question from NickZ , are the pyramid sides [gypsum plates ] essential
Could the next person with a question number it "4" and so on , so Ben can easily see what questions to ask .
