This is how they will fit together for a trial. I can't run it yet because of all the moisture in the plaster still, even though it's cured. It still has to dry thoroughly.
Variable power supply is going to probably be running about 15 volts, I'm guessing. It's a constant current type and max available is 10 amps. I'm thinking somewhere around 150 watts should be enough, but as yet, it's unknown.
