Andrew Thornett: If anyone has ever made a cloud chamber please contact me on [e-mail] as I need some advice!
Andrew Thornett: Steve - I love your aerial! I'd be interested in design if you could send me [e-mail]
Jamison Adcock: I tried, but I never got it to work...it is not easy, to say the least. However, at a science fair a few years back at my kid's school, someone built a cloud chamber that worked great. I will see if I can find the instructions (it involved using a cooling system that people use for CPUs).
Andrew Thornett: Thanks Jamison

Science Asylum did a video about building a cloud chamber 8 months ago. There are also others on UA-cam, but I have not watched any of those.
