Kent, Ohio 

Charlotte, North Carolina -- www.techwareusa.com  Computer Systems Integrator Owner (12 Years). Previous Manufacturing engineer with IBM (25 years). Very interested in alternative energy generator processes. I have some original and integrated designs which incorporate a Tesla Turbine into a solar electrical generators.

Rochester Hills, Michigan -- I am a Mechanical Engineer student interesting in building a vehicle that operates on water and which the mechanical components may be readily and cheaply replaced (in any location in the world) or fixed to allow for the vehicle to run 20+ years over a million miles.

HURON, OH. -- 12/19/06 master plumber inventor and very interested in Tesla turbines

San Diego, California – 07/30/04 Have built 10" Tesla Turbines with funding which ran out after 9/11. Now looking to build small units based on proven designs and design issues now solved. Shop is being built and equipment now being aqcuired. Equipment so far: Logan 10X36 Lathe, 7X10 Mini_lathe, 8X14 CNC vertical mini_mill, Thermal Dynamics Cutmaster 51 Plasma cutter (CNC XY plasma table being built now), Miller Syncrowave TIG welder, Millermatic Mig with aluminum spool gun, HTP maxi_mig, 4 ton shear, 10X24 Knee mill. Looking forward to building by Sept. 04'

Lincoln, Nebraska -- Greetings. I have been working on a Gingery metalworking shop for some time, and expect to be able to start making castings and machining them within a year. My primary goal is to construct Tesla turbines, both for use as engines, and as pumps for air, vacuum and hydraulic fluids.

Denver, Colorado -- New to turbine technology. Interested in potential small-scale solar applications

Rye, Colorado -- Brief? How brief? Hmm, 17 years old. Still in school. Obsessed with science, all science, pyrotechnics, chemistry, biology, physics, electronics, pretty much everything. I have never attempted to construct a turbine or any other form of internal combustion but it is my goal to accomplish this soon. I can probably get my hands on some metal working equipment soon so this will be a nice challenge for me. These interest me because of their immense power/weight ratio. I intend to put one of these in a vehicle at some point and am hoping to find some useable information about metal grades and parts and stuff that I would need to know to build one of these.

Stillwater, MN -- 07/08/07  gondolaromantica.com I am interested in learning how to make electricity using steam.

Phoenix, Arizona - I'm interested in building a steam driven generator!

Mt. Clemens, Michigan -- I like to keep busy in my free time. I have built a tiny travel trailer for camping so as to maximize our camping experience while using a little energy when traveling. I am currently working on a modified babington burner. I have been looking for a way to harness the tremendous amount of heat energy it produces to generate electricity. I found TBC while looking for a steam engine i could build cheaply to generate the electricity.

Whitehouse Station, New Jersey

Baltimore, Maryland -- Not an experimenter yet, but very curious!

Bark River, Michigan -- Retired electrical engineer

Takoma Park, Maryland -- Very interested in trying composite materials and entirely non-metallic turbine construction possibilities. Plan to try some different configurations in the near future, on a very small scale of course.

Norfolk, VA -- 07/19/07 abcwaterbed.com, mrwaterbeds.com  Love taking an idea and making it better.

Memphis, Tennessee – Retired with small machine shop. I have some definite plans and ideas for a new solar flash boiler to drive a TT to drive a generator. Am ready to start construction. Anyone in Memphis is welcome to bat around ideas and work on the project.

San Diego, CA -- www.seabirdadventure.com  11/03/06 I am very excited about the work Ken, Pam and the rest of this group has done!!! I am in the process of drafting CAD drawings for the manufacture of a Steam driven Tesla engine and then off to work on a Pulse Detonation Turbine all for the propulsion of the Sea Bird. Wish me luck! Kris PS Thank you all for your hard work!

Tampa, Florida -- Just want to do research on how to power my home on alternate power sources to save money and the environment

Berrien Springs, Michigan – I am a mechanical engineer. I always wanted to find out about alternative power sources. So here I am to see if I can learn something or maybe eventually help out.

Richlands, Virginia -- I am a woodworker who tried to create some jobs in my home town. VERY BAD idea! In my nest life, I will be moving off grid and concentrate on making a living and not money. I am learning metal working and have an 11" rockwell lathe, South Bend Verneir Mill, and Taiwanese Mill/Drill. I am very interested in Steam Power. I want to get back into molding and will need about 75-100 KW to run mill with waste heat used to heat home and dry lumber.

Jones, Alabama -- By Trade I'm a Certified Structural Steel and Pipe Welder, I'm Also A certified Autobody Technician..... To Be Brief, The Bible Says that Their will BE a time of trouble Such AS their Never WAs Since their wAS a nation!! AND THE FIRST THING THAT WILL GO IS THE eCONOMY....  I LIVE IN THE COUNTRY, I HAVE A CREEK RUNNING ACROSS MY PROPERTY.. THEREFORE I WANTED TO BUILD A TURBINE THAT COULD SUPPLY MY OWN ENERGY... SO I STARTED A SEARCH FOR HYDRO SOLAR POWER... you'd BE AMAZED WHAT I FOUND OUT.... SINCE I'm A PIPE WELDER... I PLAN TO BUILD MY OWN HYDRO SOLAR SYSTEM...BUT IT WILL TAKE SOME RESEARCH... I'm PROUD TO BE A PART OF YOUR CLUB

Cedar Hill, Tennessee – Highly interested in the Tesla turbine design.

New York, New York -- I am interested in renewable energy development.

Melbourne, Florida -- www.fit.edu/~fleslie  I'm a retired system engineer who's become an adjunct professor at Florida Tech. I teach the renewable energy course ENS4300 (see website). I just got a C-band dish with expanded mesh and intend to cover it with "a reflector" (TBD) for nonimaging focus. Your website gives me many ideas to develop a thermal system. Frank

Escondido, California – www.highfashionfaucets.co I am an experienced machinist. I am currently building a Tesla turbine to use solar energy to in turn charge batteries.
