miles.

Then "The Kid" just won this auction

Now he's surfing fleabay for a couple VFDs.

Why a couple of VFDs? You'll never use the hor and vert spindles at the
same time so one VFD will do fine for both.



The problem is turning them on and off. NEVER switch the output line
from a VFD..ever. Only switch the Input (power) TO the VFD

Doing it wrong lets out the magic smoke.

Really?

"Hurt" aint the word.

For Liberals, the truth is like salt to a slug.
Sunlight to a vampire.
RaidŽ to a cockroach.
Sheriff Brody to a shark
Bush to a Liberal

The truth doesn't just hurt. It's painful, like a red hot poker shoved
up their ass. Like sliding down a hundred foot razor blade using their
dick as a brake.

They HATE the truth."
