[TCML] Open Day with big TC

["Peter Terren" <pterren@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had an open day attended by 70-80 people. While not a true Teslathon, the 
highlight was the 18 inch Tesla coil show. That segment started with a demo 
of sparks onto a fluoro, burning a string of CD's, burning some wood held in 
my hand and the popular Dalek cage.  After that everyone got the chance to 
have their pic taken under a firing TC so there were about 30 shots of this. 
I used a long exposure of 5 seconds. Initially the flash goes off to catch 
the people under the TC whic is off. They then run away and I run to turn 
the TC on for about a second. It's a nice effect and very popular with kids 
of all ages.
I also had about 50 of my other projects on display.
Details and pics here.
