Jared! Crazy, I just replied to your 4k work.
Did not go to BM last year. Sadly, family tragedy put the brakes on that.
Not so much on the lights lately, but the parts light to fix the Deathray is finally in the garage.
I want to make the meet-up in June, so I will be troubleshooting soon.
I will try and find the drawing for the ignitor to share with you. If you can locate the HV varnish type
wire, you can wind your own coil. You can generate enough voltage to fire the lamp using surplus HV electronic power supplies
sometimes found on eBay and you've already got the spark gap design started.
More later. Good to hear from you, friend.
