Just idling around the web I came across this website.

I'm speechless. Way way beyond just amusing - even *euphoric*??

Where? If you are talking about the "O" in EUFORIA, looks more like one of the "D" magnets from a tokamak to me.


Oops. Nope. Just found it. Neat!

If I am not mistaken that is a picture of the fusor from Madison, WI??

I thought so too. They built some nice neat grids, as this one looks.

A small shame they didn't use a 'fully amateur' one - that would've been a cute outcome!

[edit]..correction, it is an amateur fusor..it's Brian McDermott's;

I wonder if they have Brian's permission to use that image?
