Great fun! I enjoyed reading that.
I left an old Xray tube at work when I retired. Wish I'd brought it home with me. I expect it went straight in the skip after I'd gone
Edit: I've just remembered that I think I've got a high voltage generator as shown in the first link in your first post stashed away somewhere in a long forgotten corner.
