right on, Jim   Thanks   I will need your address.  Oh ......  just  
noticed some of the text on the original e-mail was left off.  NO  
biggie.  The missing text just asked for a volunteer to let me apply  
impact print heads to their skull at varying drive voltages.  I  
presume that you are volunteering.
Best
Gus

I want to see if the rods in the heads can be used to push viscous

I want to see if the rods in the heads can be used to valve* viscous  
liquids out a nozzle.

* is valve a verb ?

Sure,  but I will tell you now that my skull will withstand impacts from the
highest voltage you can supply to a printhead.

All kidding aside, the throw on an impact printhead is only a 100 mils or
less typically.  I don't know what you have in mind, but this is a rather
short distance.   And I will look in my junk box.  I may still have one or
two left in there.  If I do, you pay to ship them to you, and you can have
them.

Regards,   Jim

I am planning to push acrylic paint onto a cloth surface that primates  
wear on
their upper bodies.   OMG

Jim
I will be happy to pay shipping and buy you a root beer float.
I sure am excited about the skull experiment.
I will ship you the completed driver circuit next week.  I am thinking
that more than 13KV at 300A will destroy the insulation before the rod  
gets
going.  What is your recommendation ?
