First electrical power output from a Pyramid

[John Valentin]

Hello Thomas & Working Group

I am also working on the V6 for some days. When I'll finish I will provide the results.

Thank you Thomas and everybody for your work!
I've seen what happen these days and  and I am glad the project will still go through.
If I succeed in V6 I will work on V12 to!

Work is starting tonight on V6 replica. Using 30x30x3 mm angle iron for all frame pieces. My friend is cutting the angles for the joints tomorrow. I have just finished soldering the copper tubes. Had to use 15mm tubes for first attempt.I am leaving the 2 joints where the uprights join the T pieces unsoldered, so I can pull it apart for inspection etc. Hope to start on capacitors tomorrow evening. The work must go on. Keep on keeping on. The time to quit is when it is working.

I don't understand your drawing, but i have made a 3D model for the frame structure (with reduced length, but this doesn't affect the angles).

If you have the 'Google Sketchup' software (it's freeware) i could also post the model here then you could load it and measure any angle you want.

The drawing is of a paper template, lying flat, that is not quite right. The dotted lines are the shape it takes if you fold the outside flaps inward around the 20mm tube.

Forget the dotted lines.

Sorry, I run linux and Sketchup won't run on this system (not even under wine).
