Does anyone have instructions in 25 words or less on how to make a

for printed circuit making might be a suitable start. I wonder how
much mercury it takes as I have just acquired on the black market
several mercury thyratron tubes. Each contains about 20 thermometer
amounts of Hg. I also have a couple of what are called Farrand
lenses - f/.7 at 75 mm focal length.
So where do I start? - sure I could look it up on the net but then
we would have nothing to talk about here!!

BTW, Cunningham, Palcewski and Mitchell - hint!
