James,
If the toner flows in order to fill voids than it will flow
where you don't want it. No matter what I say won't matter anyway if
he gets it to work right? I have proved dozens of people wrong. Maybe
I am wrong. Maybe he does not need the high voltage. From a practical
standpoint how many people are going to be able to use his method? It
is only my opinion. I can be wrong! I though I would make alot of
money selling plans. I only make enough money to pay my bills. So you
see I can be wrong.
