First electrical power output from a Pyramid

[neptune]

Quick post Do not use playsand, this is not sand, but crushed limestone. Thomas said, hang converter on non- conductive thread. Video , which is NOT the v6, uses copper tube support, but this may be insulated from steel frame at top. Gotta go to work...

Thomas specifically said that the thickness of gypsum board was not important

Hey, what happened to the forum at www.trawoeger-pyramide.info ?

What kind of sick joke is that? First you lure all the interested people to your forum,
you run it for 2 weeks, then you whipe the entire forum without even telling any of the registered users by email?
Why?

This lowers my respect for mr Trawoeger tremendously. Get people excited and then disappoint them by whiping all info?
Surely the few lurkers that did not share information cannot be the reason for this?
I thought the entire idea was to have an active forum for people to discuss the pyramid replications, variations, and theory?

If this is the way Trawoeger tries to stimulate the pyramid "community", then perhaps he should do a quick course in social interaction?

The converter is isolated from the frame using the plastic tube, it is an integral part of the design. TT mentioned this prior. The ground lead is tied to the pyramid frame and the converter is positive in respect to the frame so connecting the converter with a conductive pipe to the apex of the frame will effectively short it out.

Well that's another reason why I'm so ticked off about the forum disappearing:
a full step by step build description was on there.

I thought the point of the forum was to get everything clear for those who want to replicate,
so that we don't have to have these discussions...
