Homemade Cathode Ray Tube Oscilloscope.

More info is now available. http://www.sparkbangbuzz.com/crt/crt6.htm

Homemade Cathode Ray Tube with cold cathode. Vacuum is somewhere between 100 - 200 microns, easily attainable with amateur equipment. Vertical deflection is done using an electrostatic plate. This CRT is used as an oscilloscope to display a signal from a sound synthesizer.

so, how do you like the x-rays? your teeth falling yet?

[nylesteiner]

@quaxk This is running on about 4 kv. This is a low enough voltage that there is little worry about x rays.

And you are an idiot... Sounds like a fair trade.

Hey, I am looking to build a cathode myself and I was wondering if there is a specific manual you know of. I can't find any.

@quaxk What do you do when someone "harasses" you in real life? Run to the police station? Grow a pair.

[quaxk]

@hardstyle905 two reasons I blocked you, first there's no way to report abusive pm's, that's a known youtube security loophole, there's very little one can do about private message harassment, since you have been hostile to me without prior contact I suspect the behavior would escalate in private, reason #2 is angry users usually come to your channel and leave unrelated nasty video/channel comments in retaliation instead of solving the argument where it started, preemption cure those issues

[hardstyle905]

@quaxk Damn, I just noticed you blocked me. Must have hit you really hard lol

Apparently, my emotional development is going just FINE. LOL

[hardstyle905]

@quaxk I merely responded to you on the same level. What's wrong with you? You posted a stupid remark in a offensive way and so did I. Call it even shall we?

[quaxk]

@hardstyle905 the fact that you are using a "kid" epithet to be condescending to me tells me you are in fact a teenager, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, if you're not you should work on your emotional development, and change your attitude here if you don't want your account striked
