Also be very mindful of what is behind your target. Xrays will go right through the wall and through the neighbor's house. You need to be absolutely certain you aren't exposing anyone to radiation, that can get you in very big trouble. |

Think you just voided the warranty on those cartredges. But yeah very interesting - and yes be safe. |

Anyone know where I can find small X-ray tubes for cheap like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADAOFMsQi2U? |
| james_s:
That's a dental xray tube, you can get the whole heads on ebay often for under $100. I'm not sure why people take them apart, it's much safer to use the dental head intact as it has all the shielding and insulating oil or SF6. |
| Cyberdragon:
Just make sure you get one that's new enough to not have PCBs or anything else too nasty in it. |
