Title: Looking for special shape tube
Post by: Colas LeGrippa on April 21, 2019, 11:20:05 am
To celebrate today with my friends, I had thought to buy egg shaped tubes unsuccessfully. Bfore,  I tried to put a 100w head in a chocolate casing but it all melted. Good news: pure chocolate is non conductive !
I will get me a chocolate teddy bear or rabbit and we'll play songs together for Easter, in Eastern time.


My neighbours smoke pot since it s legalization in october and the fumes get under the walls and through the holes in the gyproc. My apt gets fumed to the point I had to replace all the light bulbs by fog lights !  Ufff what a pain celebrating Easter like a smoked meat !


Tube amp stuff here. Almost found an egg shaped tube: KT-66 . BUT I prefer chocolate.


Happy easter! :icon_biggrin:

I have the opposite problem, it escapes under the door and outside, then I have to chase it down  :icon_biggrin:

to get an egg shaped tube you must regulate the red plating so as to have the glass melt at a controlled rate, the top will sag down, the middle out, walla
Happy Easter
