I am pondering what tubes and power supply to use on this project. I should have built it last week so I am a bit short on time. My wife is standing there tapping her foot. Please help.

A model 100x vacuum tube turkey roaster with a turbo charged modulator for the flatulator pressure valve, duh. Anyone know where to get a print for that thing? Like I mentioned, I am short on time here. Although that model may run on Plutonium rather than vacuum tubes. Back to the parts bin I guess.

It looks like an atomic ice cream maker.

Looks more like a real flux capacitor to me.

Most importantly, are they available from KCA? I may need a closely matched pair for my JTM 45...might have to do a few small chassis mods...

How about a Nike Hercules?

Not only is the guidance set vacuum tube, the burners on this baby can do about a thousand turkeys a second and for a really even browning, the high yield warhead has a blast radius of 12 miles......

Disclaimer - I worked on these in the military, but frankly, I found it hard to obtain civilian employment when converting this skill set to turkey basting.

Should have the bugs worked out by next year. Good luck with the wife.
