Just a heads up that I finally got off my but and started a real website! Welcome to gentlemanphysicist.com!…
The capacitors have finally arrived. UPS decided that shipping them from Ontario -> My apartment in BC -> Ontario -> University of Victoria was a good idea. However, they have finally shown up! Aren’t they beautiful? You will doubtless notice the little baggy of resistors. These have a ridiculously high resistance and voltage tolerances. They’re…

Oh well, I can only hope this doesn’t set me back too far. It looks like the plate capacitors are actually pretty…
