He's not makin' moonshine, what with that thoriated-tungsten filament... or is he? And he drank it????

Thanks,

Yes, you are correctly pronouncing it, although the regional dialect has it Slime-uh-Tron as well, FYI.

I have a sound file somewhere of the refinery process seen in the two photos shown.  Maybe that will help you grasp the concept, the technical variables involved, and the goal to science.

NO animals were harmed in the testing of the item.

"And he drank it???? "   NO, the elixer is much to strong to be taken oraly...  klc

A slimatron produces heavy pissolene. You figure it out.

Uhhh... you dudes on the East coast talk like all funny and stuff, soooo... so Ida know... that could mean anything!


;)

Pissolene differs from woodolene in that it is produced by the human body.

It is best to listen to Tim give step-by-step construction details and complete explanation of the operation of a slime-o-tron.

There is also the wax-o-tron.  I have seen one of those in operation, but never had the privilege of witnessing a slime-o-tron in action.

This may be helpful.......

Having seen that very slimatron in operation years ago, all I can say Jason is - you gotta see it to fully appreciate it. There's no better way to utilize an otherwise pus-filled 833.

If memory serves me correctly, the slimatron came about as a response to some on-air remarks about his operation from Henry-yeL-aR Mountain bl-bl-bl-bl-bl-blYEEEARs ago.

Not to be confused with light possolene, which is the natural form of pissolene. the redistilled form of heavy pissolene is far too concentrated to be treated lightly, as it falls somewhere right inbetween toxic chemical and nuclear waste. when it looks like tar, you better run as the slimatron is about to explode!! :o :o

We also need to tell Jason that the root is

Oleen

oh-leen' noun, (Skowhegan) Any grade of gasoline from ethyl to super-ethyl, leaded or unleaded. "I need to get some oleen in the Chuffa-Mobile," the man said.

Webstor's tells us that the word, over a period of years in common use, also became a

...suffix with modifiers for a variety of fuels and fuel-like substances, e.g. woodoleen, i.e., "Tossing a log into the wood o'leen stove."

Variants, typically seen on the printed page and not relevant when uttered, include oline, olene, and olyne (archiac). These are acceptable as long as there is compliance with proper pronunciation.

Hope helpful.

It is important to note that the origin of the Slime-A-Tron is like the eskimo language, much of it cannot be written down.  When inquiring on the air, please refer to the Chuffa-Mobile, since this was the first known vehicle to be the recipient of the processed, highly refined Slime-A-Tron fluid, ca. 1967.

And always remember that the true real-deal slimatron must use an
833-A! 4-400s, 4-1000s or anything else is not type accepted and mearly a cheap "knock-off" immitation!! ;)

An then you'll have to ask Tim to tell you the story about The EGGATRON Bombs he used to build as a kid on his bicycle. What they were was eggs left in the sun to spoil, One EGGATRON bombs were left in the sun for a week Two EGGATRON bombs were left in the sun two weeks. I thing the strongest Tim ever built was the Mighty Six MeggaEggaTron Bomb.

He told me the results were a bit disappointing but it was a good experiment done at a time when the nuclear powers of the world were flexing their mussels. Tim had it all under control!!!

 

I recall one story of a slime-o-tron that went off while guests were present.  Turned the party into a puking contest.

Thats the same one I heard!! ;D ;D

Do anyone remember the story of the first use of pissolene as a windshield  solvent??   klc

Timmy sez his Slimotrons never explode. Just ask PW Fallon.

"We want a slimatron...We want a slimatron...!"

"... and it was raining hot pissolene!"

Porkrot 1972

WEll the saddest day in my ya'emm life was listling to Tron cryin' about the fire on henrylrmountain.  ' 86?  Can't remember xactly. I mean what a waste of big iron, 4x1's and a lifetime collection of really neat stuff. We all sent what we could. "Oh Tim, here's a lowly 807." Well he took that empty icon and turned it into a whole lit up, plug-in bucket's worth.  ..or I think he was the maker. Now that's class.  One of the few lights in the world of dead sea, salt buckets for many years.

Errr... yea, the fire.

http://www.amwindow.org/pix/htm/hlrmtn.htm

Outstanding!

Or, as Tron would say, "Out standing under a streetlight" ;-)

For the benefit of future generations, I'd appreciate you sending the original version to bill _at_ horne _dot_ net. I'll post it on Timtron.org, the future home of all things timtronic.

73, Bill W1AC

"It was called the Crazy Horse... kinda like Neil Young's backup band, there... ya know....

So anyway..."

Was it 1972?

Well the Chuffa-Mobile, so named because it was missing a few cylinders, must have been a '67.

The story of its inauguration related to the Slime-A-Tron carefully crafted at Pork-Rot was that the hose delivering the processed fluid broke LOOSE, as the fire hose under pressure, and spewed its contents on and about the car and bystanders.

O ! the humanity as people dove for cover, the wildly flailing line barely keeping hold of the apparatus on which it was mounted.

Finally, the law of physics regained control, quieting the savage beast, stilling the conduit, and quelling the crowd who weeped and retched at the trauma they had witnessed.

Within days the Chuffa-Mobile's paint bore mute testimony to the event.

I think there was also a brownish strip down the side of the garage after the "incident."

Gee I was just thinking that it would be cool to build a solid state PDM modulator to drive a slime-A-Tron off a battery for mobile fester applications so it doesn't kill the battery. The Silme-A-Tron heating element would act as the integrator. A class H Silme-A-Tron driver would waste too much battery power.

You are totally sick! ;D

Would that be considered a "Class-P" modulator?

 yuck :P

I forget the dates, but remember the 71/72 slimatron an joe fallons
mom's place. timmy barfed in it, and it churned away, globing out
squirts of obnoxious crudolene (another slimatron adverb) frothing
into the air. spontanious barfing did occur (we put pennys in the
fuse box )

then the chuffa mobile, and a farty at roger k1czh's in sudbury
mass (now w1oj). it had a funnel upright attached to the tailpipe.
we'd all piss into the pipe and timmy, after a fasion would fire up
the chuffa. gurgle gurgle gurgle, and pheweeeeeeeeee, out came
heated up pissonlene would rain on everything! bob w1imm caught
roger OJ, pissing into the chuffa as well as others (and me)

I thought it was only a legend, myself. So you're saying, the liquid seen in the photo is actual urine?

(http://www.amwindow.org/pix/jpg/slime2.jpg)

slimatron - device used to distil pissoline.  Indeed!

Uhm... someones got some severe kidney failure, based on that coloration!  ;)

I was thinking the same thing. If my stuff was that brown I would get on the transplant list.

No, it's his-un

Circa:  1969, 1970 or thereabouts at the Timtron's in Rockport

(http://www.geocities.com/j_sheehyconknetcom/bc3f.jpg)

Anybody know if the slime-0-tron  sample rate is constant or does it need to change with density? a slow sample rate on a class p modulator might provide more of a show

But don't forget, it had been stored for a considerable amount of time and allowed to ferment before use.

Ever encounter a chamber pot that was overdue for emptying?

I don't think fresh, un-aged liquid material would produce the desired effect.

Sorry Frank, you presume tubes are the same as valves (see the British).
In this case, the processing sequence is entirely pneumatic with flow rates based on PV=nRT and no electronic spinchtering.


Update:
I have been corrected. Although Ideal Gas Law (above) would appear to apply at first blush, the variables involved more closely resemble fluid dynamics in a hydraulic rather than pneumatic environment.  Sorry for any confusion, it's really not my field.

well paul,
Maybe a simple inverter to a variac would allow the operator BTU adjustment based on status feedback observed.

Between all the innuendo and Skowhegan lingo, I admit confusion. Help me out. TRUE or FALSE:

-The Slime-o-tron contains human urine.
-The 833A filament heats the urine to boiling point.
-The boiled urine flows through a tube to a coffee can, and then back to the 833A.
-The resulting "distilled" human urine is examined and (somehow) measured for "strength".

op. cit.

Did you mean Porkrot??

See? It's all legend, speculation and rumor. I suggest the FDA launch a 50 million dollar investigation into this device! The public deserves to know the facts.  ::)

they wouldn't be any more successful at that than they were finding Saddam's WMD's.

Is a Slime-o-tron a terrorist weapon?

or could we drop 50,000 of them into Iran?

That would be a negative. The speculators are all wrong. No investigation needed. A slimatron produces heavy pissolene. Quite clear really.

Yes. the expectorators are all wrong, it's a totally bogus theory on the face of it, since residual salivation would never endure the ravages of evaporation and microbe development in the time it would take to accumulate adequate volume of sputum for an experiment or other scientific pursuit.

"  ... in the time it would take to accumulate adequate volume of sputum for an experiment or other scientific pursuit. "

...unless one chews tobaco.   klc

ha, the timtron lungy cup! at at farty at my place in berlin ma. circuit
1984 (?) a good time was had by all. frank ka1dd lit flouresent bulbs
from 20' with his 8877 mobile. we had to pull jack, w1alm out of
his car. too WO'd and we wouldn't let him drive home ;; tim had
a gal (?) and binked in the side room all night.  Next day, you know
the routine. piled up ashtrays, beer cans all over etc. my girlfriend
comes out with a cup full of slime from the side room "whats this?"
she says. I said, "be  careful, thats timmys lungy cup, where he
stores his coughed up lung slime", haa laughing as I type, she
went to door gagging "thats go GD gross, agg, aagg " spit spit,
hee. warned her :)

Correct.

Could that have been the one I attended?  I recall the Dean-X 100, a Johnson desk KW, some kind of big Collins leenyar (about 10 kw if IIRC); Dale KW1I and the FAF amongst those in attendance; Dale presenting me a certificate of appreciation for publishing the AM Press/Exchange; Tim and someone discussing transmitter design and drawing schematics on the front of the refrigerator using black dry-erase markers.

But I don't remember anything about the lungie cup.

  OHHH MAN!!!! :P

Don,
     ha that one was 1986 (+-) thats when I got the bigger rig,
which is long gone.. yes, my frigeeratoor was the whiteboard. kept
dry markers up on top. timmy drew scizmatics all around the fridge.

(tron voice) so, what you need to do here is take out these underscroted pubes and sub some 50C5's in the driver section...... ( draws 50c5 butt plug ass schematic on deanos fridge) assembled masses nod in agreement......  :-X

I wonder what ever happened to the KNX afterburner???
A fine machine I heard was great for burning stumps.

Well... It was at Deerfield in 1976 that I was 1st introduced to the Slime-O-Tron! :o  Ah yes, at the tender age of 17, I was tailgating with my Dad, about 3 slots down from the Shriner’s Beer Keg.  (Oh how the time’s have changed)  While I don’t recall there being an actual Slime-O-Tron there, I heard the stories!   :o
