#introductions
I’m an electrical engineer with a PhD in vacuum tubes.
I’m a maker, crafter, baker, and gamer.
I have an unreserved appreciation for dresses with pockets.
@ejk Are you serious about the vacuum tubes? :D
@codepuppy yep! I built a traveling wave tube for my thesis
@ejk @codepuppy That is exceptionally cool! Got pictures? 😀
@Nyoei @codepuppy The one comment I got on my thesis was "too many selfies" (Also, dang I look young there.)
@ejk @codepuppy Not too many selfies at all:D What did you end up using it for or was it made just for the sake of making one? It is pretty damn beautiful I have to say:)
@Nyoei @codepuppy it was a proof-of-concept device (no end purpose), but the lab was set up to be modular. A postdoc is now using most of the equipment to build a klystron
@ejk @codepuppy So eventually someone could end up creating a particle accelerator as a postdoc project based on your previous work? 😁
@Nyoei @codepuppy theoretically, but it’d be a very bad one 😆
