This thread is a prime example of why so many good basement researchers have left this carnaval show.

Here is the bell shot I promised. It is a simple blocking oscillator in current starved mode, nothing fancy and well known in the art. I can produce just about any shape bell by fiddling with a few values. If you are interested, I will supply complete schematic and test setup.

Anyone who has a keyboard synthesizer can duplicate this by adjusting the ASDR envelope modulator controls: Attack, Sustain, Decay, Release. You, too can get just about any envelope desired.

In the case of the blocking oscillator, the attack is the initial strike of the storage capacitor into the oscillator, the sustain is the major or steady state discharge, decay is the portion where the oscillator gets starved and begins to give up, release is the quiting or oscillator quench.

I'll post another shape later, hopefully a little clearer.

Here's some more eye candy. My spark gap, Marx generator, HV transformer and small Tesla Coil secondary. When this was all connected produced some fun.

Here's parts from my Hendershot Machine. It was built up at one time. The coils were hell to wind. But I do have original TV tube type vertical output transformers of the correct impedance as used by Hendershot.

Maybe a little off-topic but I could also imagine a few reasons why answers could be evasive, besides the usual ones like ego, threat, or dependence issues:

• person truly doesn't know (multiple personality disorder)
• person is embarrassed about method (metaphysical/esoteric means)
• person always evades when feeling cornered, whatever the issue
• ...
