Air Variable Capacitor

[CoreyB]

Here's an air variable capacitor I made for the Amateur Radio industry. I did all of the work on my lathe/mill combo (Smithy)
and cut the vanes on a CNC plasma table (Langmuir Systems).

Thanks Frank. More to come. Next up, a 20 micro-Henry roller capacitor.

Looks good. I think you mean 20 microhenry roller inductor though.

Wow, that is a piece of art!
I hope it is fully visible when used/installed.
