Jim, definitely going small. The furnace will only host a maximum size of 15x40mm. I’ll be using 0.203mm sheet and each target will probably be 15mm sq, possibly smaller. Installation will utilize a simple slide-in low profile aluminum sleeve (or similar).

First run will probably utilize a single target. If it works, one would be sufficient to identify any positive results.

Hello, I'm thinking about making fusor at home like a student project, so could you help me a littleฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ Could you tell what hight-voltage environment you used and send a paper plan of the fuser. And how do you regularl gas pressure? Sorry for stupid questions (they can be for professional) and my English (it's yep not the second my language). Best wishes, Tonya

Tonya, you did an intro and have followed all the rules. But its best to create your own thread to ask such a question and not use someone else's topic thread for that purpose. Also, read the FAQ's before asking questions since most answers are to be found there.
